KLOS Aug. 18Th 2013 1 1 2 95.5 KLOS PLAYLIST AUGUST 18 2013 9AM 2 3 The Beatles - Old Brown Shoe - Non-LP B-Side (Harrison) Lead vocal: George On February 25, 1969, his 26th birthday, George Harrison went to Abbey Road Studios and recorded elaborate eight-track demos of three of his latest compositions: “Old Brown Shoe,” “Something,” and “All Things Must Pass.” All three of the demos recorded this day can be found on the “Anthology 3” album. “Old Brown Shoe” had made a brief appearance near the end of the “Get Back” sessions with a few run-through/rehearsals on January 28, 1969. The full band revisited the song for a proper recording on April 16, 1969. The rhythm track was finished in four takes, with George on lead guitar, Paul on jangle piano, John on rhythm guitar (which would be erased in favor of a Hammond organ part played by George on April 18), and Ringo on drums. Overdubs included bass guitar, lead guitar, and backing vocals by John and Paul. In his book, “I Me Mine,” George said, “I started the chord sequences on piano, which I don’t really play, and then began writing ideas for the words from various opposites… Again, it’s the duality of things - yes no, up down, left right, right wrong, etc.” Released as the flip side of “The Ballad Of John And Yoko” in the UK on May 30, 1969, while the “Get Back” single was topping the charts. The single was issued by Capitol Records in the U.S. on June 4, 1969. On U.S. album: Hey Jude - Capitol LP (1970) The Beatles - If I Needed Someone - Rubber Soul (Harrison) Lead vocal: George The fourth original composition by George Harrison to be recorded by The Beatles was heavily inspired by the 12-string guitar sound of The Byrds. The introduction of George Harrison’s “If I Needed Someone” is strikingly similar to the introduction of The Byrds’ “The Bells Of Rhymney.” Harrison commented that the song was “like a million other songs written around the D chord.” The backing track was recorded in one take on October 16, 1965. George’s double-tracked lead vocal and John and Paul’s backing vocals were added two days later. The song was performed live by The Beatles in late 1965 and was a staple of their 1966 world tour. On U.S. album: Yesterday and Today - Capitol LP George Harrison – I Live For You - All Things Must Pass ‘70 (Remaster 2001) A pleasant track in the vein of “Behind That Locked Door,” and bears a striking resemblance to Dylan’s “Lay Lady Lay.” 9.10 BREAK 3 4 The Beatles - One After 909 - Let It Be (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John and Paul One of the oldest songs in the Lennon-McCartney catalog, “One After 909” had been written by John when he was 17 or 18, and had been performed by the Quarrymen in 4 5 1960, and by the Beatles in their pre-fame club days. The song was first recorded by the Beatles at the March 5, 1963, session for their third EMI single. After completing both sides of the new single (“From Me To You” and “Thank You Girl”), John and Paul had two additional songs they wanted the group to record. In addition to “One After 909” they also brought in “What Goes On,” but there was only enough time in the session to record one additional song, so “One After 909” got the go-ahead. Six years later the group revisited the song, with Billy Preston on keyboards. In his 1980 “Playboy” interview, Lennon admitted the song was probably resurrected for “Let It Be” because of a lack of material. As the rooftop performance drew to a close John sang an impromptu line from “Danny Boy.” The previously unreleased 1963 version can be found on the “Anthology 1” album. The Beatles - Twist And Shout – Please Please Me (Medley-Russell) Lead vocal: John The last song recorded during the marathon session on February 11, 1963. Two takes were completed before Lennon’s voice gave out. The released version is the first take. Originally recorded by The Isley Brothers in May 1962, The Beatles performed it regularly in their live act between 1962 and 1965. Its inclusion in the 1986 film “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” sent the song up the Billboard singles chart 22 years after its initial U.S. release. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles - Vee-Jay LP The Early Beatles - Capitol LP The Beatles – Blue Suede Shoes (Perkins) – Apple Studios Jan 1969 The Beatles - I’ve Got A Feeling - Let It Be sessions /Apple Studios Jan 1969 (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul and John In compiling the soundtrack to the “Let It Be” film, producer Phil Spector had no time to sift through the hours of music the Beatles had recorded at the end of January 1969. Instead, he relied on two versions mixed by Glyn Johns. He also screened a print of the movie. Spector had four different Glyn Johns mixes of “I’ve Got A Feeling” to consider: an incomplete January 22 run-through, a more polished take recorded on January 27, and two performances of the song from the rooftop concert on January 30, 1969. On March 23, 1970, Spector remixed the January 27 take and the first of the rooftop performances, but when banding the final album, he chose the first rooftop performance for inclusion. The Beatles - Get Back – Single version(Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul 5 6 Paul’s “Get Back” had been rehearsed and reworked throughout the January 1969 sessions, including over 30 takes of the song on January 27, 1969. Among those over 30 takes was the master take of the song, but it did not include the familiar coda at the end heard on the single. That coda would be recorded the following day and edited on to the January 27 master. For the album version, Phil Spector used the same January 27 “single” master performance, but added modifications to give the impression the song was recorded during the rooftop concert. Spector’s album version begins with the instrumental and vocal warm-ups from the January 27 performance as well as some sound recorded on the rooftop on January 30. At the end of the song, instead of the familiar January 28 coda, he cuts to the end of the rooftop performance, with what EMI engineers described in their notes as “cricket applause” and Paul saying, “Thanks, Mo” (to Ringo’s wife Maureen for clapping the loudest), and Lennon’s famous quote: “I’d like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves. I hope we passed the audition.” The Beatles - Rock and Roll Music - Beatles For Sale (Berry) Lead vocal: John Incredibly, this stunning cover version of Chuck Berry’s classic hit from 1957 featuring John Lennon on lead vocal was captured in just one take on October 18, 1964. Like “Twist and Shout” and “Money (That’s What I Want)” before it, “Rock and Roll Music” is a prime example of Lennon making a previously known hit his own. The overdubbed piano part features John, Paul and George Martin pounding the SAME piano! The song was featured on the Beatles 1965 European Tour and was the opening song during their 1966 concert tours. On U.S. album: Beatles ‘65 - Capitol LP The Beatles - Please Mister Postman – With The Beatles (Dobbins-Garrett-Brianbert) Lead vocal: John Beatlemania was not only a boon for record shops and merchants selling any number of licensed Beatles products (Beatle wigs, Beatles boots, paperback books, magazines, board games, buttons and other novelties), it also gave a significant financial boost to songwriters and music publishers of the non-original songs the group covered on its early albums. No label benefited more from their talent roster’s hit records being covered by The Beatles than Detroit-based Motown Records. Three of Motown’s hits were included on The Beatles’ second album: “Please Mr. Postman,” “You’ve Really Got A Hold On Me,” and “Money (That’s What I Want).” “Please Mr. Postman” was the debut single by The Marvelettes, and the first single issued by a Motown label (in this case, Tamla) to hit number one on the Billboard pop charts. The songwriting credits for the song have changed throughout the years. The liner notes and record label for “With The Beatles” credits only “Holland” (Brian Holland) as the songwriter. The original Tamla and Fontana (UK) 45s list the writers as Dobbins-Garrett-Brianbert. Decades later the credit has expanded to include an additional writer brought in to finish the song (Freddie Gorman, another songwriting partner of Brian Holland), and separated the writing partnership of Brian Holland and Robert Bateman (previously combined as Brianbert). The credit should now read: Dobbins-Garrett-Holland-Bateman-Gorman. Parlophone also 6 7 spells out “Mister” where the title appears, but the Marvelettes version has it abbreviated as “Mr.” Recorded July 30, 1963. On U.S. album: The Beatles’ Second Album - Capitol LP The Beatles – Polythene Pam - Abbey Road Recorded July 25th w/ “She Came in Through The Bathroom Window “. The only Beatles song inspired by a woman in New Jersey who dressed in polythene (but not jack boots or kilts). Written in India, demoed for the White LP. Lennon 1.00 / The Beatles – She Came In Through The Bathroom Window - Abbey Road Recorded July 25th 1969. Written while in NYC to announce Apple. Based on a true story about some Scruffs breaking into Paul house at St.

John Lennon – Steel and Glass - Walls And Bridges ‘74 Much like “How Do You Sleep” three years earlier, this is another blistering Lennon track that sets its sights on Allen Klein (who had contributed lyrics to “How Do You Sleep” those few years before). The Beatles - Revolution 1 - The Beatles 2 The first song recorded during the sessions for the “White Album.” At the time of its recording, this slower version was the only version of John Lennon’s “Revolution,” and it carried that titled without a “1” or a “9” in the title. Recording began on May 30, 1968, and 18 takes were recorded. On the final take, the first with a lead vocal, the song continued past the 4 1/2 minute mark and went onto an extended jam. It would end at 10:17 with John shouting to the others and to the control room “OK, I’ve had enough!” The final six minutes were pure chaos with discordant instrumental jamming, plenty of feedback, percussive clicks (which are heard in the song’s introduction as well), and John repeatedly screaming “alright” and moaning along with his girlfriend, Yoko Ono. Ono also spoke random streams of consciousness on the track such as “if you become naked.” This bizarre six-minute section was clipped off the version of what would become “Revolution 1” to form the basis of “Revolution 9.” Yoko’s “naked” line appears in the released version of “Revolution 9” at 7:53.

  • Songs of the Vietnam War Lyrics
    The Limits of Power: The United States in Vietnam Name:______________________________________________ 2 Online Lesson Songs of the Vietnam War Lyrics Introduction: Throughout history, the strong feelings raised by the sacrifices, ideals, heartbreaks, and triumphs of war have often been expressed by poets and artists in songs. Songs that best cap- tured the strong feelings of Americans became very popular and lived on long after the details of the conflict were forgotten. Whether they expressed patriotism and national ideals such as inThe Star-Spangled Banner and The Battle Hymn of the Republic, sacrifice and heroism such as inWhen Johnny Comes Marching Home, or disappointment and loss such as All Quiet Along the Potomac Tonight, these songs have become part of the history. The Vietnam War was no exception. Below is a small selection of the many songs written by Americans, Vietnamese, and French about the Vietnam War. Lyndon Johnson Told the Nation By Tom Paxton (1965, folk) < http://youtu.be/JQqapCkf4Uc> I got a letter from L.B.J., it said, “This is your lucky day. It’s time to put your khaki trousers on. Though it may seem very queer, we’ve got no jobs to give you here, so we are sending you to Viet Nam” chorus And Lyndon Johnson told the nation, “Have no fear of escalation, I am trying ev’ryone to please. Though it isn’t really war, we’re sending fifty thousand more to help save Viet Nam from Viet Namese.” I jumped off the old troop ship, I sank in mud up to my hips, And cussed until the captain called me down, “never mind how hard it’s raining, Think of all the ground we’re gaining, just don’t take one step outside of town.” Every night the local gentry slip out past the sleeping sentry They go out to join the old V.C.

There were just six of them - 'Yellow Submarine', 'Only A Northern Song', 'All Together Now', 'Hey Bulldog', 'It's All Too Much' and 'All You Need Is Love' - and only four of them were new. Side two was devoted entirely to George Martin's musical score for the movie. Thirty years later it was decided to restore the film, digitalising the soundtrack in the process, and the songtrack album is a result of that remastering. Released in 1999, it was the first collection of Beatles songs to get a digital remix, but more significantly it dispensed with the film score that had appeared on side two and included instead most of the other songs featured in the film that hadn't appeared on the earlier LP.

  • Sammy Figueroa Full
    Sammy Figueroa has long been regarded as one of the world’s great musicians. As a much-admired percussionist he provided the rhythmical framework for hundreds of hits and countless recordings. Well-known for his versatility and professionalism, he is equally comfortable in a multitude of styles, from R & B to rock to pop to electronic to bebop to Latin to Brazilian to New Age. But Sammy is much more than a mere accompanist: when Sammy plays percussion he tells a story, taking the listener on a journey, and amazing audiences with both his flamboyant technique and his subtle nuance and phrasing. Sammy Figueroa is now considered to be the most likely candidate to inherit the mantles of Mongo Santamaria and Ray Barretto as one of the world’s great congueros. Sammy Figueroa was born in the Bronx, New York, the son of the well-known romantic singer Charlie Figueroa. His first professional experience came at the age of 18, while attending the University of Puerto Rico, with the band of bassist Bobby Valentin. During this time he co-founded the innovative Brazilian/Latin group Raices, which broke ground for many of today’s fusion bands. Raices was signed to a contract with Atlantic Records and Sammy returned to New York, where he was discovered by the great flautist Herbie Mann. Sammy immediately became one of the music world’s hottest players and within a year he had appeared with John McLaughlin, the Brecker Brothers and many of the world’s most famous pop artists. Since then, in a career spanning over thirty years, Sammy has played with a
