    So i was 13 when the Beatles broke in 1964...the so very different sound they had from the previous groups like Beach Boys, surf music and teeny bopper singers cant really be explained. They just popped. The songs and vocals were bright and uplifting. "She Loves You" and I Wanna Hold Your Hand" were so addictingly great. Ive often wondered how many people would have gotten into music and bands if the Beatles had never been, because before them there really wasnt a big interest in becoming a member of a band but after everyone wanted to including a lot of famous musicians we know listen to. The 7 years they topped the charts and were a band that everyone followed can never be done again to that level. It was literally a phenomenon.

    Yes that is so true I think Ringo is probably one of them most underrated drummers if not the most. But pay attention when they're trying to figure it out when they have to redoing the take about 6 7 maybe 8.. times John suggests to George Martin in order for Ringo to keep the beat and maintain those fills that he does that he'll sort of strum the beat with his guitar to keep Ringo's timing in order to do those fills. Pay close attention go back and listen. But absolutely you're correct that is so difficult for him to do maintaining that beat and putting those signature fills in.. I'm not a trained musician or anything like that but please let me know what you think

If you've ever played an early 60s J-160 (they were acoustics w/a pickup on them) and strummed ANY of the chords George or John did with them like the opening chords to This Boy you would KNOW a J-160 can not make the Rickenbacker electric rhythm sounds you can hear clearly on this song. George is playing a Gretsch electric. Neither guitars you hear are the guitars pictured above. Ears.

    @beatlealex9129 If it's chunk it ain't J160, it's Rickenbacker. If it's strumming it's J-160s and/or Rick. If it's octaves - the main hook in this song it's Gretsch later Rick. Usually J-160s are strumming not picking. One rare exception of J160 LIVE was at MBE show - not even the way I Feel Fine hook was played on record - John plays the hook (you hear mainly George) on the J160 but it facilitates the strumming of the country verses - but obviously not the sound on record. J160 is a unique sound, it's 50% at least of the rhythm sound of the first 2 LPs with Lennon's 325. - easy to hear what it's NOT.

    I would say that the real Beatles were from Rubber Soul onward as it was them doing what they wanted and not caring what the trends were, or what would be commercial. Tho there was a little of this in the beginning they were still being handled and that made them write and perform what these handlers thought would sell, including doing covers of other's songs. By Rubber Soul they were pushing the limits of studio ability, inventing sounds and recording techniques which were not known before and doing it because they wanted not because someone said it would sell.

    Agree. Rubber Soul was the start of the "recording" Beatles where they couldn't play Live what they did in the studio. The sheer originality of the chord changes and melodies - middle 8s pre '66 were the BEST. Rubber Soul and Revolver were the Best post '65 (Pepper was cute - only a couple great songs but a great gimmick - if Strawberry and Penny were included as they were supposed to be then I'd have another opinion) but by then the charm was wearing off. By Let It Be and Abbey Road the music chord changes were predictable - good, but not original like pre 65 Beatles. (exceptions would be Sun King w/ Beach Boys ripped harmonies fairly interesting) People forget that by the Beatles 3rd and last American tour they weren't selling out the venues any more - their time had waned a little and there were too many other options for kids by '66. 🎸

    He might have suggested a few structural things, but he didn't write their parts. They wrote their parts and integrated them into an arrangement song by song. And then they played their arrangements and didn't bust out in improv. Their skill at arranging is the other half of the Beatles skillset (after the songs) that sets them apart from other bands. They were collaborative arrangers. But they were lucky to have him, no doubt. Hearing songs and arrangements develop is listening to their process, that's all. Don't assume they didn't (couldn't) do it, and that Martin had to FIX them. That's not true at all.

I will never forget seeing them live at Shea Stadium in New York City in the borough of Queens. The Beatles were great at all levels of their fame but I favor the early Beatles because the songs were more Romantic. My father was in Liverpool in the early 1950s on a business trip as he was a Tailor on assignment training the British Companies in tailoring techniques. Did you see the Beatles Dad in Liverpool before they were famous frolicking around the streets? My dad was also a musician in an Italian band. Oh I guess he liked the Beatles because he spent a lot of time in Liverpool! He approved them as well as my mother! I am sure the Beatles mothers especially Johns and Pauls deceased mothers ,if they were alive would be proud of their sons at that time.

    Safe to say take 8 of From Me to You was the final product, though the mixing of the recording was sped up and the pitch made higher. Although I must say take 2 might have been a good alternative too, even without John's harmonica. Thanks to the keen listening skills of George Martin, you can hear the rough beginnings of a song through its evolution.

    “From Me to You” was the first Beatles song I ever heard, on KRLA Radio, cruising down Whittier Boulevard in our two-tone 1956 Pontiac Star Chief in the summer of 1963. I was hooked then and there and asked my dad to drive straight to the mall where I bought the single for, I think, 77 cents. I still have it. “From Me to You” was released on the Vee-Jay label because Capitol Records were convinced nothing British could ever be successful in America. Incompetent idiots…

Badfinger , but ELO carry on !! The Beatles were Fortunate with Brian Epstein and George Martin...timing is everything, and poor George had to wait til they broke up for his songs to escalate...the world was so blessed to have BEATLES and the monumental touring they did and had to give up...!!

    It's always been a thing that we tend to think that the recordings of these classic songs sounded just that way from the time the songs were written. In the day, this misunderstanding cowed and humbled millions of musicians trying so hard to create their own music to sound at least in the ballpark with these guys. We were all massively frustrated that we couldn't sound like those records at our rehearsals in our basements, garages, etc. We didn't know a thing about recording production, micing, pre-amps, EQ, compression, effects, and everything that goes into a professionally made recording. We thought that they just sounded like their records when they plugged in, played, and sang. It drove us crazy. Now and for a while, through vids like this, we have come to understand that what we heard on these records was impossible for anyone, even them, to produce live just playing and singing like mere mortals. Here, for instance, we see that lots of takes, experiments, and changes were necessary to make the finished thing. Yeah, even they were human, even if the final music sounds as if they weren't.

    Still, though, they could put down a whole album in just a couple of days or less. The speed with which they wrote, learned, and recorded songs is truly astounding - averaging 2 albums a year for 8 years - plus early touring, 4 movies, and a rooftop concert in record time (oh and writing a producing other music, including with other artists) - I always wondered if they ever slept!

    @@dino0228 Yes, they were extraordinarily dedicated to their music and that can always be heard on their recordings. Their earnest dedication, songwriting, and their intelligent willingness and ability to change, evolve and improve their songs in the studio surely eventually impressed Geroge Martin, a serious, experienced, professional, classically educated Producer. That crucial, magical collaboration gave us those works art. We can hear that they did indeed learn their art and craft very quickly both as a band and individually. That is what comes of deep personal devotion. Still, my point is that the finished, mixed and mastered recordings, theirs and others are not at all what songs or individual instruments sound like in rehearsal or in any raw live setting. The many technical and audio-electronic studio techniques and processing used to create them gives them a sound that cannot be duplicated when just plugging in and playing. Not knowing anything about this drove us crazy trying to "get that sound" in rehearsal when it was, after all, impossible to do so. The valiant attempt to do so did, however, open up our ears and made us much better musicians.

    @@michaelharrington75 Of course, those BBC pro recordings were processed. They were studio recordings produced with pro mics into preamps, EQ, compression, studio reverb, etc. The tracks were mixed and mastered as studio recordings as well. The early Beatles studio albums were recoded live, that is the Beatles played and sang at the some time as if on stage. There were some overdubs, John's harmonica and double tracked voices, for instance, but thee was almost none of what we might call "production" until much later. This is not to take anything away from the Beatles. Just the opposite. Very few bands can play ad sing live in the studio, which is a precise, unforgiving mirror, and come up with the superb sound that they did. Hats off to them.

    They were instinctive songwriters from the very beginning. However, they fully blossomed and learned the ropes and all the tricks of the trade once they got their foot in the door. George Martin was a huge part of their musical development. They were very intelligent men who learned their craft well. They listened to the hits of the day, and nicked a bit here and there, and spat it back out in their own style. Which is what every excellent songwriter/band does. Look at how many bands/songwriters at the time nicked from them also. Songwriters/bands are influenced by everything around them, and everybody borrows from everybody. They call it being "influenced by." Very few bands at the time had their propensity for songwriting and harmony, which put them clearly at the top.

    Educational purposes? They played live and together in real time with no overdubs or fixing in the mix. They wrote their own music, arranged it and finessed the transitions so they would smooth, natural and interesting. No tricks or crossed fingers. They put the charm and character in the performance that was recorded and the one you hear. What to learn from this? Be a real band that can sing, play and be innovative as you perform. The Beatles were competitive with other groups. If they heard something they liked they would mimic it.
