BWTB Sept. 18Th 2016 1 Playlist Sept. 18th 2016 9AM The Beatles - All Together Now - Yellow Submarine (Lennon-McCartney) 2 Lead vocal: Paul In May 1967, with the “Sgt. Pepper” album in the can and awaiting release, the Beatles went to work on two projects at the same time. They began recording the title track for “Magical Mystery Tour” and also starting to record the new songs they had promised for the “Yellow Submarine” film. The first song specifically recorded for the “Yellow Submarine” film was “Baby, You’re A Rich Man” (on May 11, 1967), but that song was pulled several months later to fill the B-side of the “All You Need Is Love” single. George Harrison’s “Sgt. Pepper” reject “Only A Northern Song” was added to the stack of film songs. Paul’s sing-along “All Together Now” was started and finished on May 12, 1967. Nine takes were recorded. Instruments included two acoustic guitars (probably Paul and George), bass guitar (Paul), bass drum (Ringo), harmonica and banjo (John). The Beatles - Got To Get You Into My Life - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul Another Paul McCartney solo composition, Paul called this stand out track “an ode to pot, like someone else might write an ode to chocolate or a good claret (wine).” Work began on the song on April 7, 1966, and this early alternate version can be heard on the “Anthology 2” album. It was the second song recorded for the “Revolver” album. The Beatles returned to the song the next day with an improved arrangement that included John and George on fuzz guitars. On May 18 they revisited the song again, devoting a full 12-hour session to rework and complete the song. To give the song its Motown feel, five outside musicians were brought in to add brass and saxophones. An additional dual guitar overdub was added on June 17. “Got To Get You Into My Life” was the opening song performed on the final Wings tour in 1979. On U.S. album: Revolver - Capitol LP 3 The Beatles - Any Time At All - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Recorded June 2, 1964, the last day of recording for the “A Hard Day’s Night” album. John Lennon: “An effort at writing ‘It Won't Be Long’ - same ilk. C to A minor, C to A minor with me shouting.” The song was in an unfinished state when Lennon brought it to the band to record on June 2. The group worked out the arrangement throughout the day and night. Up against the wall on a deadline to submit the album, the piano section in the middle eight was left without lyrics. They had run out of time. On April 8, 1988, Lennon's handwritten lyrics for “Any Time At All” were sold for £6,000 at an auction held at Sotheby's in London. On U.S. album: Something New - Capitol LP The Beatles - Eight Days A Week - Beatles For Sale (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Recorded primarily on October 6, 1964. It is the first instance of the Beatles taking an unfinished idea into the studio and experimenting with different approaches to a song. “Eight Days A Week” is the first pop song with a fade-in introduction. Written mostly by Paul, the title was taken from a line spoken by a limo driver. McCartney: “I was being 4 driven over to visit John. The chauffeur was talking away to me, saying how hard his boss worked the staff, so hard that they seem to do eight days a week. We’ve altered the plot a bit for the song, of course. The bloke loves the girl eight days a week.” In later years John Lennon incorrectly referred to this title in interviews as the original working title for the film “Help!” The actual working title of “Help!” was “Eight Arms To Hold You.” On September 20, 1964 as the band and their entourage flew to their final North American Tour concert destination, the press corps on board the Beatles private plane witnessed from a distance, careful not to interrupt, the four Beatles huddled together working on a new song. John, Paul, and George on guitars and Ringo tapping his knees, and all humming the tune of what would become “Eight Days A Week.” Released as a single b/w “I Don’t Want To Spoil The Party” in the U.S. on February 15, 1965. On U.S. album: Beatles VI - Capitol LP The Beatles - Don’t Let Me Down - Non-LP B-Side (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John with Paul The Beatles’ nineteenth single release for EMI, and second on the Apple Records label. The “Get Back” sessions, as the January 1969 recording sessions were now known, produced about 475 hours of film and 141 hours of audio tape that had to be sifted through. But proper multi-track recordings weren’t made until the band was recording in the basement of the Beatles’ Apple headquarters between January 21-31, 1969. Producer/Engineer Glyn Johns attempted to construct an album entitled “Get Back” from the tapes but his versions were rejected. The tapes would be left dormant in the vault for a year, with the exception of a single (“Get Back”/“Don’t Let Me Down”). John Lennon’s “Don’t Let Me Down” was a love song for Yoko Ono and was the first song given a full run-through by the group when sessions for the new album began at Twickenham Studios on January 2, 1969. But proper multi-track recording takes were not done until the band changed location to the basement recording studio at their Apple headquarters. The master take was recorded on January 28, 1969. Like Paul McCartney’s “Get Back,” the song features Billy Preston on keyboards. Rush-released as a single with the hope of being in stores in the UK on April 11, 1969, the single showed up a week later. Although the single did not list a producer credit, it did, for the first 5 time on a Beatles single, list an artist in addition to the Beatles: “THE BEATLES with Billy Preston” graced both sides of the single. “A great honor,” said Preston. The single debuted at number one on the Record Retailer singles chart. In America, the single was issued on May 5, 1969, and it topped the Billboard sales chart for five weeks. It is the first Beatles single released in stereo, but the stereo mixes were for the American market, not the UK. The UK would have to wait until the next single release (“The Ballad Of John And Yoko”) to get its first stereo Beatles 45. Prior to this all previous Beatles singles had been issued in mono. Although the song appears in the “Let It Be” film, it is not included on the soundtrack album. On U.S. album: Hey Jude - Capitol LP (1970) BREAK The Beatles - Hello Goodbye - Non-LP track (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul The Beatles’ sixteenth single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. Originally titled “Hello Hello,” Paul’s “Hello, Goodbye” was recorded during the sessions for the “Magical Mystery Tour” TV movie, but was intended for release as a stand-alone single to be issued two weeks before the “Magical Mystery Tour” EP, and would not be 6 included in the film. Work began on October 2, 1967 with 14 takes of the rhythm track. Over the next month, the Beatles added overdubs to create the finished recording. Specifically, Paul’s lead vocal and John and George’s backing vocals on Oct. 19, outside musicians playing two violas on Oct. 20, Paul’s bass guitar on Oct. 25, and a second bass guitar line from Paul on Nov. 2. From the very first take the song included its unique reprise ending, which the group nicknamed, somewhat strangely, the “Maori finale.” Issued November 24, 1967 in the UK and November 27, 1967 in the U.S. On U.S. album: Magical Mystery Tour - Capitol LP The Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever - Non-LP track (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John The Beatles’ fourteenth single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. Recording began on November 24, 1966. Written in Spain by John several months earlier while he was filming the Richard Lester-directed film “How I Won The War.” The beautiful “Take 1” of this Lennon classic can be heard on the “Anthology 2” album. It is entirely different than the finished version. Strawberry Fields was actually a Salvation Army home in the neighborhood where Lennon grew up. John used to go to parties there and it always brought back happy memories to him. One of the only two “honest” songs that John says he wrote for the Beatles. The other? “Help!” In September 1966, Brian Epstein informed EMI and Capitol that there would be no new album and maybe not even a single ready in time for the 1966 Christmas season. EMI quickly assembled a 16-track greatest hits album (“A Collection Of Beatles Oldies”). In the U.S., Capitol did not release a hits compilation and instead waited impatiently for a new single. 7 The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun – LOVE/Abbey Road (Harrison) Lead vocal: George The second of two CLASSIC songs George Harrison delivered for the “Abbey Road” album. “Here Comes The Sun” and “Something” was a phenomenal one-two punch that had to have Lennon and McCartney wondering what else Harrison had up his sleeve. George wrote the song while walking around the sunny back garden of Eric Clapton’s home, strumming o0ne of Eric’s acoustic guitars.

    1 Playlist Nov. 13th 2016 LIVE! From DUKES in Malibu 9AM / OPEN Three hours non stop uninterrupted Music from JPG&R…as we broadcast LIVE from DUKES in Malibu…. 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.

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.

    1 Three hours of GEORGE HARRISONGS – With and without the Beatles to celebrate his birth which took place this week 72 years ago. PLAYLIST Feb.22nd 2015 2 OPEN/9am George Harrison – Apple Scruffs - All Things Must Pass ‘70 This was a salute to the girls (and sometimes boys) who stood vigil at Apple, Abbey Road and anyplace a Fab was to likely to be. Upon recording the tune, George invited the “Apple Scruffs,” into the studio to have a listen. The Beatles - I Want To Tell You - Revolver (Harrison) Lead vocal: George The backing track was recorded in five takes on June 2, 1966. George Harrison's third song on “Revolver,” was, he later said, "about the avalanche of thoughts that are so hard to write down or say or transmit." Once again Harrison had no idea what to call his composition. The band briefly kicked around random ideas, and the song was recorded under the working title “Laxton's Superb,” a type of apple. It later became known as “I Don't Know,” which was George’s answer when producer George Martin asked whether Harrison had come up with a title. By the day of the final mix (June 6, 1966), Harrison had settled on the title “I Want To Tell You.” Contains the first bass overdub on a Beatles record. Paul had his bass recorded on a different track really allowed for more options when it came time to mix the song. On U.S. album: Revolver - Capitol LP 3 The Beatles - Blue Jay Way - Magical Mystery Tour (EP) (Harrison) Lead vocal: George Written by George Harrison on August 1, 1967 while vacationing in a rented house in the Hollywood Hills above Los Angeles.

  • Apple Label Discography
    Apple Label Discography 100-800 series (Capitol numbering series) Apple Records was formed by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr in 1968. The Apple label was intended as a vehicle for the Beatles, their individual recordings and the talent they discovered. A great deal of what appeared on Apple was pretty self indulgent and experimental but they did discover a few good singers and groups. James Taylor recorded his first album on the label. Doris Troy recorded a good soul album and there are 2 albums by John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet. The Beatlesque group Badfinger also issued several albums on the label, the best of which was “Straight Up”. Apple Records fell apart in management chaos in 1974 and 1975 and a bitter split between the Beatles over the management of the company. Once the lawyers got involved everybody was suing everybody else over the collapse. The parody of the Beatles rise and the disintegration of Apple is captured hilariously in the satire “All You Need Is Cash: the story of the Rutles”. The Apple label on side 1 is black with a picture of a green apple on it, black printing. The label on side 2 is a picture of ½ an apple. From November 1968 until early 1970 at the bottom of the label was “MFD. BY CAPITOL RECORDS, INC. A SUBSIDIARY OF CAPITOL INDUSTRIES INC. USA”. From Early 1970 to late 1974, at the bottom of the label is “MFD. BY APPLE RECORDS” From late 1974 through 1975, there was a notation under the “MFD.

All YOU Need Is Love. This is the soundtrack album for the feature-length Cartoon film of the Same name based loosely around the lyrics of Yellow Submarine. The contract for the film and album, signed by Brian Epstein, stipulated that The Beatles were to supply at least three previously unreleased recordings for use in the soundtrack. The Beatles felt Brian Epstein had let them down and initially wanted nothing to do with the project but eventually decided to supply songs that would not normally have been seriously considered for release. However one Song, 'Baby You're A Rich Man', originally recorded for inclusion on this album, was issued six months previously as the B side to 'All You Need Is Love' (See the Magical Mystery Tour album). The four songs reluctantly supplied for use in the film: 'Only A Northern Song', 'All Together Now', 'Hey Bulldog' and 'It's All Too Much' were considered by The Beatles to be throwaway recordings. The original plan was to release the four new tracks as an EP, but after consideration it seemed that an album would sell better. Unfortunately for Beatles fans this turned out to be a one-sided Beatles album with George Martin's orchestral Score of the film's incidental music on the second side.
