FlaSoxxJim Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Imagine Tecnically it is often considered a Beatles song, since it was penned during the time when all John and Paul songs were credited as Lennon/McCartney regardless of who penned them. The song is part of the original Northern Songs/EMI Beatles catalog I think the Paul-pennned "Come and Get It" (performed by Badfinger on the Magic Christian Music album) also falls into that odd category even though John had nothing to do with the writing and the Beatles never released a recording of it. George's All Things Must Pass (song, not album) is also legally a part of the Beatles composition catalog, even though there was never a Beatle version released.

I've never really considered it a Beatles tune. Is Badfinger back in production? I know their catalog was held up for legal reasons for a long time. Are there any CD releases?

aboz56 Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 From 4lifeinpa to miss 4 life a few months ago... (he won't admit it, but he sang this to her) To lead a better life I need my love to be here... Here, making each day of the year Changing my life with the wave of her hand Nobody can deny that there's something there There, running my hands through her hair Both of us thinking how good it can be Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there I want her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care But to love her is to need her everywhere Knowing that love is to share Each one believing that love never dies Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there I want her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care But to love her is to need her everywhere Knowing that love is to share Each one believing that love never dies Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there To be there and everywhere Here, there and everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerhead johnson Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Rocky Racoon One of my guilty pleasures.... Take 16 from the Peter Sellers Tapes is a much better version than the official one, I'd say. The refrain is kind of weird, but it's still a great track.

FlaSoxxJim Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 One of my guilty pleasures.... One of mine too. Mother Nature's Son and Rocky Raccoon are the two Paul White Album songs I have always kept in the performance rotation when playing out acoustic.

hammerhead johnson Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Other favorites, Rain and Sexy Sadie. The reduction mix for Rain: Left channel: Bass, drums w/high hat. When panned left, it's purely instrumental except for backup vocal phrases and Lennon's harmony at the refrain. Right channel: Lennon's lead vocal, guitar, drums without high hat. The stereo separation allows listeners to focus on Lennon's stunning vocals. Especially riveting are his double-tracked harmonies at the refrains. Fully separated in this mix, the listener can pan left or right to hear each Lennon vocal separately. Droning on the word "Rain," he achieves the vocal timbre of a Tibetan monk high in the mountains.

witesoxfan Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Eleanor Rigby, Norwegian Wood, and Yesterday. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is pretty trippy too. BTW, is Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds really when they were on LSD or not? I realize the initials and everything, but I seem to recall a friend of mine who loves the Beatles told me that it wasn't. Maybe I was just being a dumbass then and I heard him wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool description of the mix. That Tibetan Monk on the Mountain aura was popular with John around that time. Tomorrow Never Knows was recorded and mixed to gave essentially the same feel... "Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream..." Rain and She Said She Said are John at his best I think... fully open to suggestions from George Martin on arrangement and also for letting Paul and George really collaborate add their vocal fluorishes and their instrumentation as they saw fit. George's giutar on She said is signature work as is Paul's bass on Rain. Nobody worrying about being overshadowed and the result is near perfect music. I'm Only Sleeping is right up there too in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I was just being a dumbass then and I heard him wrong. This one was probably too easy for Hammerhead to chime in on... John's story is that Julian brought hame a crayon drawing he did in school of his friend Lucy, drawn in a sky full of diamonds. Insists teh LSD acronym was unintentional. I always believed the story since John (or any of them) never really denied when there was a drug influence in a composition. John said the three verses of I am teh Walrus were written during each of 3 separate acid trips (and the inspiration for the song was a kids schoolyard rhyme that he remembered had a line about 'yellow matter custard'. She Said She Said (here it is again) was based on a tripping Peter Fonda telling everybody "I know what it's like to be dead" at a party. The Dylan-turned-us-onto-weed influence is all over Rubber Soul... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
