    One of my favorite Beatles stories was Paul telling back when he and John were just beginning to write their own songs. Paul said that one December evening he and John were walking through his neighborhood heading to his house for a writing session. Paul said they finished up close to midnight, and he decided to walk John back home. On the way back, they passed by a house when John said “Man, do you see those people over there still outside playing cards at this hour” ? Paul said he looked over and saw a nativity scene set up outside the house John was looking at. Since John was virtually blind without his glasses (and refused to wear them), he thought there were a group of card players outside this house that hadn’t moved for the several hours since they had passed them by earlier. Paul said he cracked up laughing and never forgot it.

    Paul's bass line in this song has to be one of the most iconic and recognized bass lines in music history. How he and Ringo "locked in" on this song is incredible. The bass line and the drum fills just stand out at the beginning of this song. A masterpiece of a musical backing for John's amazing vocals with Paul doing backing vocals by doubling with John on some of John's vocal lines.

    The monotone minimalism of the sound production is what gets me on Come Together, thanks to George Martin. The discipline it takes to do this! When I first heard this song in 1969 as a teenager, the opening bass/drums sounded very much to me like someone dialing "ZERO" on an old rotary phone - and it still does!

    Interesting backstory about the lyrics of this little gem. Lennon was asked to contribute a song for the longshot campaign for Governor of California by "LSD guru" Timothy Leary, but the guy had to quit running after a marijuana bust landed him in jail. Since John had already started on the song he decided to finish writing it anyways, but it seems he opted more for a mocking theme of Leary rather than a supportive one. "Come Together" was actually the campaign slogan of Leary before he dropped out. I'm guessing that Lennon's loose use of language had to do with his being in the "Beat Generation", which I think is also why they called themselves The Beatles.

    • @DJBilodeau

    • @mikecaetano
      @mikecaetano Před měsícem

      Yep. Leary shows up in the bed sit video for "Give Peace A Chance" if I recall correctly. Also, the following snippet is from a University of Delaware exhibition on the Beat Poets: "The Beatles and the Beats: Although its origins are somewhat obscure, the very name of the Beatles (changed by John Lennon from the “Beetles”) seems to be a sly allusion to the Beat culture of the late 1950s and early 1960s. As an art student in the late 1950s, John Lennon edited a homemade magazine called the Daily Howl, and he eagerly read Jack Kerouac’s On the Road. Dubbed the “writing Beatle,” Lennon would publish his own book of verse in 1964. He later stated that had he not become a musician and songwriter, he might have been a “Beat Poet.” Both Lennon and Paul McCartney formed lasting friendships with Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs. Beat artist Wallace Berman and Burroughs appear on the Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover. Brion Gysin and Burroughs’s innovative cut-up techniques also may inform the tape-splicing sequences featured in the album."

    So! We discover that RINGO is your favorite band member? Interesting, and I can totally see that! John in an interview spoke of the fact that, long before the Beatles were famous, Ringo was already a star (pardon the pun) when he was a member of Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, which was, at the time, the biggest band in Liverpool. So I get from John's remarks and those of the other Beatles they had the utmost respect for Ringo as a professional musician. In early Beatlemania Ringo was, by some accounts, the most popular of the Beatles as he was reported to receive the most fan mail of all of the Beatles.
    Pretty hard not to like Ringo for all of his aspects as a human being!

    Lennon was going to be sued by the folks who owned the Chuck Berry catalog. Lennon ripped off Berry's You Can't Catch Me in Come Together. Instead of suing Lennon, they forced him to do his Rock and Roll album for them instead which they would market.

    • @tomheim9516
      @tomheim9516 Před 23 dny

      True, but rip-off is (I think) a bit extreme. While Lennon was definitely inspired by Chuck Berry’s original, the two songs are vastly different. If Lennon hadn’t borrowed a few lyrics like the ‘flat top’ line, I doubt the lawsuit would have been successful. You can’t win a lawsuit based on a blues chord progression. The courts would be clogged up for decades.

      @@tomheim9516 Tell it to George Harrison who ripped of He's My guy. The entire beat, rhythmic structure and even the lyrics are direct rip offs. Play one against the other. It is unmistakable. Lennon played the original hundreds of times. The Beatles were incredibly influenced by Chuck Berry. If you have seen the way the beatles created, they would start with a riff, and continue to play around with it and then George Martin did his magic. But zero doubt the original riff for the song was straight out of Barry and so were John's original lyrics.
