Somehow the most perfect thing ever, despite so much of it being completely imperfect. It slows down, speeds up, little glitches, coming in slightly wrong, stuff not quite on the beat. If this was recorded today, with the benefit of ProTools etc, it would be so much more polished and tidy. I love how natural and real it is. The isolation really lets you hear it all. Magical!

Not to mention one of the greatest songs ever!!! The instrumentation is outstanding, and Ringo is not even the drummer on this song, having left the band temporarily over an argument with Sir Paul. The Beatles double LP (more famously, or perhaps infamously, know as The White Album) has some throw away songs, but on the other hand, has some songs that are phenomenal - Dear Prudence, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness is a Warm Gun, Blackbird, Julia, Yer Blues, Mother Nature's Son, Sexy Sadie, Revolution No. 1, and Savoy Truffle - awesome songs!!!

Right? It’s sooooo damn good. And it’s unreal to think that he used that technique on 3 tracks for The White Album: Dear Prudence, Happiness is a Warm Gun, and Julia. Yet the tracks are so well produced, engineered, and balanced that they each feel like a distinct picking style despite being the same one. It’s unreal how much flavor he could put on Travis picking.
