This is brilliant. I know all these chords but I'm used to playing them as full chords. People who don't play, say The Beatles music is easy three chord songs. How wrong they are, also many don't realize how good John was on rhythm guitar. I've been struggling with getting the speed right for this strum pattern, and I've been playing for years. Many thanks for this lesson.
My thought is, how did they come up with these perfect musical pieces, like John’s triplets? It’s perfect for this song and George’s flourishes on guitar…amazing. We try to figure out how they did it, but they came up with it.
Wow!!!! Mike, just awesome. Espectacular performance. Great lesson. You are unique to teach the way they play all their music. With anecdotes and interesting stories. Congratulations. Form
I've been waiting for this one. Thanks Mike ! John's triplets, Paul's walking bass line, George's Carl Perkins style lead, and Ringo's steady drumming. It doesn't get any better.
You are freaking awesome. I am 70 and been a Beatles freak since the 1st appearance on Ed Sullivan. I’ve never consistently concentrated on my guitar. I don’t know why. I can do o.k.. Even on bass. I decided it’s never to late to go nuts and see how good I can actually get. Your lessons and videos are The Best. The work you put in is phenomenal. It’s like reliving the Beatles, bit by bit. Don’t stop because you are my impetus. This song is so beautiful by the way.
Similar story ! I am 71, love the Beatles, and regularly play out of their thick spiral-bound song book. I hope to get a Rickenbacker 350 at some point to get a more "Beatles soung".. !! Thanks for the great lesson !
Fantastic. This song is in my top 10, if not top 5. Always thought such a shame George’s rhythm part is buried, because it really would have been the perfect Beatles band performance.
I’ve always wanted to learn exactly how John and George played this song. This was the Beatles song that inspired me to start learning guitar from the first moment I heard I immediately fell in love with John’s rhythm guitar playing, and it has since been one of my all time favorite Beatles songs. Thanks for the lesson Mike! You sure made a 17 year old hard core Beatles fan happy! 😊
Usually when watching a lesson video, I want the lesson to begin quickly with a rendition of the song......in your case Mike, your explanations and stories are always interesting and fascinating [as well of course as the musical parts].......you are a professional and desrve much kudos for your channel and your work
Fantastic Mike. You nailed it again. It's such a timeless song. My Dad bought the 'All My Loving' EP for my Mom for their wedding anniversary in February 1964 as it was her favourite Beatle song up to then. They would have loved watching your video. Thank you once again!!!
These videos are absolute gold! As someone who's been trying to learn The Beatles guitar parts for years I cant tell you how much I (And I'm sure many of us) Appreciate them! Question if I may, What Studio Monitors/Devices do you use to help you transcribe these guitar parts? Personally I have a cheap pair of Monitors but have been looking to step up. Keep up the amazing videos~~
Thanks so much for this. I have always marveled at Lennon's triplet rhythm on that song, but this is the first time saw a video describing it. I felt Lennon was an awesome rhythm guitar player.
I like your question. Similarly, I've been trying to get my rhythm playing as smooth as Al McCay does on That's the Way of the World, by Earth, Wind & Fire. I always thought John burned a lot of calories on this one!
Great choice and job. It's great watching John do this song. He just sits back and plays like it's nothing. Amazing. Plus if I recall right I remember John send something he is really proud of his guitar playing on this song.
The Beatles are GREAT!!! Thank YOU so very much for the excellent knowledge about them and to take the time to share it with us!! ¡¡Saludos desde México!! 🇲🇽
I've heard comments from some people who say George never played any decent lead guitar on recordings before 1969. This is an example of how wrong they are because many unique guitar solos by George inspired a whole lot of aspiring rock guitarists who came afterward.
Mr Pachelli, I say this with absolute admiration and respect, as I am an ardent, lifelong fan of all things Beatles! Your musicianship is truly impeccable and much to be desired. Your detailed dissection of their songs has given me an even deeper appreciation for their music. Thank you for making these treasures available to us mere mortals. You are a musical repository for music appreciation and learning , Thank You Sir Mike Pachelli !!!
Almost want to say this is better then The Beatles version, but hey that would be sacrilege. The George solo is the highlight, especially the way he "completes" it at the end.
Thanks Mike, great lesson rich in details always a tutorial with extreme perfection. How about a tutorial on the harmony of "I'm in love" written by John and recorded by "Billy J Kramer & The Dakotas". It looks like John was in the studio, could you please comment on the dialogue between John and Billy J that appears in this recording section? Thank you very much. PS.: Also the song "Bad to me" wouldn't be so bad"!
The "short scale" of the Rickenbacker was what John liked about the guitar and even though John had big hands, and he did, chording while singing was much easier for him. I played one once and let me tell you there is a HUGE difference as compared to say a "Strat" or "Gibson". Especially when you move up the neck to play bar chords, which he did often. That particular "D" chord with the pinky on the 5th was unique to John's playing. He used it a lot. John came up with that "triplet" rhythm on his own and Paul said many yrs later that this really helped to make the song. I also think it's George's BEST early guitar solo. George recorded two solos for this song. Unsatisfied with the first. they overdubbed the 2nd but, if you listen closely, you can still hear the first slightly because they could never get the 1st one completely out.
it's almost 2024 and only now do I realize the guitar parts leave out the bass notes to give more room to Paul's moving bass line in the mix. The Beatles are still teaching me new things about music. Thanks Mike. I bet some of those 10 ditched takes had more low notes\low end on the guitars.
Again, jaw-dropping perfection. There's no reason for anyone learning to play these tunes to look anywhere else on UA-cam (and to save folks from wasting their time, all those other videos should be deleted ;)
Mike Pachelli has detailed knowledge of Beatles songs and how to play them correctly. He is an incredible resource of Beatle info which he gladly shares. Thanks man! 👏🏻😎🎸
Hey Pachelli, been enjoying your The Beatles Breakdowns for years. It is incredible that you're figuring out each of these other-worldly songs for us average folks. I actually appreciate George's leads much more now that I've seen you teaching us how that marvelous player did his "thing", esp. on this track. Amazing. Thank you for what you do for us gams...tw-
Oh yeah, your enthusiasm for The Beatles' brilliance during EVERY video is infectious & sometimes heps us notice things we NEVER even heard until you. So Thanks again & Keep up the Exemplary work...tw-
I have no idea about understanding music or how to play the guitar…but what I do know is The Beatles are the greatest music band! Love your presentations👏👏👏
An interesting note to the end of Paul and Jane Asher's relationship... when Jane discovered Paul's indiscretion, she destroyed a box of demo tapes that John and Paul had recorded, thus robbing us all of many Lennon/McCartney songs. Thanks a lot Jane!
Previous to playing guitar, six years of drum and syncopation lessons had me counting triplets as one-and-uh, two-and-uh.....etc. Sixteenth notes would be one-e-and-uh, two-e-and-uh....etc. I switched to playing guitar, while I was a drummer in a band, and my guitar friend showed me the B-sus chord intro to Pinball Wizard, and I found that I had the natural rhythm to play or strum it easily.
Hey Thanks Mike , Happy New Year to You. !! I have fallen in Love wth your lessoms. They are absolutely amazing ! I especially love your multi part covers at the end . It gives great perspective on how the parts come together as a whole. I witnessed the first Ed Sullivan Performance as a young man in Jr High. I have always wanted to learn that solo...Now at 72 , with your lesson it will become possible . Keep doing what you do, God Bless !
Man I love your videos. I asked if you would cover “You’ve got to hide your love away” You didn’t say you have one. Are you going to get a framus hootenanny like Lennon used?
Mr. Lemonade - I don't own a Hootenanny - and you know how anal I am about instrument accuracy. There's not that many Framus songs that I feel inclined to do - tho' I DO love “You’ve got to hide your love away."
Lemonade - Yea - and I've already posted lessons on Help and Norwegian Wood - altho' they were done years ago before I decided to do them more thoroughly. Still - seems redundant to do them again.
Wow Mike what a synchronicity! I've started learning "All My Loving" and literally searched to see if you had a lesson for it two days ago and look what we have here!
Duuuuuude I was having coffee as you mentioned ( one of the hundred times) they say 'I'll always be true'.... what a mess you made me do, still worth, though... I'm still laughing...lol
Your recommendation to use a metronome to learn John’s triplet rhythm is a lifesaver. Over the years, I’ve tried to play the part, but couldn’t consistently ‘nail it’ or get it up to speed. With a metronome - gradually increasing the speed and practicing it only 10 minutes a day - I was able to attain consistency and speed in a few weeks.
O.K., I've got.a story: I was in the audience in the Hollywood Bowl on Earth Day 1993, when Paul played this song on the same stage where he had recorded it with that other band of his decades earlier. His original Beatle bass, of course. A little girl, no more than three or four, somehow eluded security and ran onto the stage, absolutely mesmerized by Paul and the song. Pursuing security guards were shaken off by McCartney, who knelt down and sang the song directly to her alone, nose-to-nose, just the two of them. She had that look of pure, swooning joy that only a child that age can conjure. She couldn't have imagined how astonishing what was happening really was. Perhaps she knows now, wherever she is. After the song McCartney shook off security again, and motioned for the lights to go down as he scooped up the child and walked down into the audience, looking around. The girl's stunned parents came over and collected her, and the crowd was just spellbound for a moment. Greatest thing I've ever seen at a live show. Even Ringo joining him for "Hey Jude" couldn't top it.
It’s funny, but I always loved the Beatles but being a guitar player as a teenager in the 1970s I really never tried to play any of their tunes in guitar besides Day Tripper. I was always more into learning Zeppelin, Hendrix, Deep Purple etc, but never the Beatles. Mostly, I think, because the Beatles hardly ever just used barr chords nor simple AC/DC open chords. The Beatles always incorporated REAL chords lol and that meant hard work and study which, now that I’m into my 50s, I got time for!! Can’t thank you enough Mike for making these tunes accessible and fun!
I have watched a couple videos on UA-cam of the Beatles playing this song. Most of the videos when George plays the solo the camera goes to Ringo on the drums. Why would you do that? Thanks Mike for all research you do and your attention to detail.
Because the camera operator knew nothing about music.. rock music played by a self contained unit like the Beatles was new in 64.. previously, guitar solos were rare or played by guys in the shadows
OH MY GOD- THANK YOU SO MUCH,I think your tutorials are the best..or well at least for me,I also love the fact that you explain lots of interesting stuff at the beginning of every video. I've always wanted to play All My Loving like John and finally (thanks to you) I'm able to understand how his part is! So thank you so much! *sends love from Italy*
I really enjoy your lessons because you are both accurate and really interesting and cool to listen to. It is still amazing how the Beatles could be so inventive at such a young age. George was only 20, Paul 22 and John 24 when this song was released but they must have written the whole score together several months earlier. The arrangement although really interesting is now a bit old fashioned but the melody is incredibly beautiful, still works today and will remain in the collective subconsciousness. That's were McCartney was such a musical genius.
This is brilliant. I know all these chords but I'm used to playing them as full chords. People who don't play, say The Beatles music is easy three chord songs. How wrong they are, also many don't realize how good John was on rhythm guitar. I've been struggling with getting the speed right for this strum pattern, and I've been playing for years. Many thanks for this lesson.
I think, Johns art to play the rythm did he learn as he as a boy learn to play the banjo from his aunt.
Me too.
My thought is, how did they come up with these perfect musical pieces, like John’s triplets? It’s perfect for this song and George’s flourishes on guitar…amazing. We try to figure out how they did it, but they came up with it.
How did they come up with these great songs? They were genius.
Wonderful, thanks Mike! And the left handed bass is the icing on the cake.
Wow!!!! Mike, just awesome. Espectacular performance. Great lesson. You are unique to teach the way they play all their music. With anecdotes and interesting stories. Congratulations. Form
Great job Mike! Especially appreciate George’s rhythm parts
I've been waiting for this one. Thanks Mike ! John's triplets, Paul's walking bass line, George's Carl Perkins style lead, and Ringo's steady drumming. It doesn't get any better.
And no one showed the boys how it was done, the learned it all by themselves.
ringo's drumming is the straw that stirs the drink.
For the longest time I always thought it was George but it’s definitely one of John’s best rhythm parts
Great lesson thank you. I didn't know you could play a left handed bass like Paul. Thats incredible.
Great knowledge of the Beatles and super guitar instructor! Thanx Mike!!
Thanks....I always thought that was George on those triplets....One of my favorite songs....Thanks for straightening it out.....
*Nice! I play it in C to suit my vocal range and that lets me play the bass line at the same time. Starts in Dm.*
fantastic as always
Superb.
thanks Mike, i need this!
I want that gretch! I love mistakes.when I play. It leads me too new sounds. Kind of like the beatles. Lol mark your the man. B
Do you take online students?
Claude - yes. I have a number of online students I teach via Zoom.com. Email me at: mikepachelli.com/contact

You are freaking awesome.
I am 70 and been a Beatles freak since the 1st appearance on Ed Sullivan.
I’ve never consistently concentrated on my guitar. I don’t know why. I can do o.k..
Even on bass. I decided it’s never to late to go nuts and see how good I can actually get.
Your lessons and videos are The Best. The work you put in is phenomenal.
It’s like reliving the Beatles, bit by bit. Don’t stop because you are my impetus.
This song is so beautiful by the way.
Well said Bob.
I don't think there are better Beatles lessons anywhere on UA-cam than on your channel.
You're the best!
Wow, thanks!
John's rhythm guitar is awesome. These "lessons" are amazing. At 70 and still learning the intricacies of these "simple" songs. Genius.
Similar story ! I am 71, love the Beatles, and regularly play out of their thick spiral-bound song book. I hope to get a Rickenbacker 350 at some point to get a more "Beatles soung".. !! Thanks for the great lesson !
This is perfect in every regard.
bradford - thanks - very kind of you to say!
The Beatles were perfect.
I can't even play guitar (or any instrument), but I do love these Beatle lessons. What can I say ?
You should get a guitar and start playing!
That's right! Never too late to learn, ya know. ;-)
Get a guitar! 😅
Fantastic. This song is in my top 10, if not top 5. Always thought such a shame George’s rhythm part is buried, because it really would have been the perfect Beatles band performance.
Master Pachelli, thanks for your knowledge the Beatle community is grateful!!

Thanks so much for this. I have always marveled at Lennon's triplet rhythm on that song, but this is the first time saw a video describing it. I felt Lennon was an awesome rhythm guitar player.
I don`t think people recognize as they should John`s and George`s great guitar skills, these 2 were a machine working together.
I've always felt that All My Loving is one of the most tight Beatles songs. It's just fantastic.
How do you get Lennon's strumming so perfect? Lol
I like your question. Similarly, I've been trying to get my rhythm playing as smooth as Al McCay does on That's the Way of the World, by Earth, Wind & Fire.
I always thought John burned a lot of calories on this one!
yeah kind of tricky but I started slowly with a 60mm pick and got speed after a while
Lennon was never big into handing out compliments to Paul but he admitted this was a great song.
You should get an award for this nice little channel, which at a million plus views, is actually not so little… 👍
M- Thanks - I appreciate that. And may I humbly add, at this writing I have 15,059,162 views.
This channel is a good source for us to learn The Beatles' songs and the stories behind them.
Hi Mike just been listening to your lesson on All my loving absolutely brilliant you really got it right it’s perfection well done
In interviews John was alway very proud of his rhythm guitar part on Loving. I always enjoy playing!
Keith - Yeah - I learned a lot from John's rhythm playing. It always fits the song perfectly!
It seems to me that like me, John was a natural rhythm guitarist. I can get by on drums too.
Great choice and job. It's great watching John do this song. He just sits back and plays like it's nothing. Amazing. Plus if I recall right I remember John send something he is really proud of his guitar playing on this song.
Thanks Mark. And yeah - John should've been proud of his guitar playing in "All My Loving" because it IS fabulous! And thanks for being a subscriber.
Wow much talent..always loved this one..that strumming is crazy!!..🎸🎸🎶

Almost want to say this is better then The Beatles version, but hey that would be sacrilege. The George solo is the highlight, especially the way he "completes" it at the end.
Or, as John often introduced the song: "All My Luggage."
fliegeroh - YES! I love that!!

Thanks Mike, great lesson rich in details always a tutorial with extreme perfection. How about a tutorial on the harmony of "I'm in love" written by John and recorded by "Billy J Kramer & The Dakotas". It looks like John was in the studio, could you please comment on the dialogue between John and Billy J that appears in this recording section? Thank you very much. PS.: Also the song "Bad to me" wouldn't be so bad"!
The "short scale" of the Rickenbacker was what John liked about the guitar and even though John had big hands, and he did, chording while singing was much easier for him. I played one once and let me tell you there is a HUGE difference as compared to say a "Strat" or "Gibson". Especially when you move up the neck to play bar chords, which he did often. That particular "D" chord with the pinky on the 5th was unique to John's playing. He used it a lot.

Amazingly accurate rendition. Thanks for doing all this work for us.
Joe - You are most welcome - and thanks for being a subscriber!
What a fabulous dissection of this number. Thank you! Man, I’ve had a few bits of this song quite wrong. Lol.
it's almost 2024 and only now do I realize the guitar parts leave out the bass notes to give more room to Paul's moving bass line in the mix. The Beatles are still teaching me new things about music. Thanks Mike. I bet some of those 10 ditched takes had more low notes\low end on the guitars.
Yeah baby.Just seeing this one. From a 75 yr old who was in the thick of it back then.
Again, jaw-dropping perfection. There's no reason for anyone learning to play these tunes to look anywhere else on UA-cam (and to save folks from wasting their time, all those other videos should be deleted ;)

I love this song
Thanks and I agree it's a great song!
No surprise that guy in the Paul concert video was in tears. It's a great Beatles 4-part effort
Absolutely love this song. I really like listening to the live version where it's Paul and George harmonizing.
Super lesson Mike! Love the "Mop Top" era Beatles music the most.
Ed - me too!

Nailed it, Mike. Thanks from a chord-challenged old rocker trying to learn this stuff!
I LOVE THESE SORTS OF "RHYTHM GUITAR SOLOS" AND GEORGE WAS ESPECIALLY GOOD AT THEM HE SHOULD'VE DONE MORE
