  • George Harrison Birthday Special 2016
    1 George Harrison Birthday Special 2016 2 George Harrison – Crackerbox Palace - Thirty-Three & 1/3 ‘76 This was the most successful track off the LP, and the title originally considered for the album. It’s content was inspired by the comedian Lord Buckley, a longtime favorite of George’s. Another Eric Idle directed promo film, featuring the future Mrs. Olivia Harrison, future Rutle Neil Innes, and the numerous children of Derek Taylor. The Beatles - You Like Me Too Much - Help! (Harrison) Lead vocal: George Recorded in eight takes on February 15, 1965. The introduction features Paul and George Martin on a Steinway piano and John playing an electric piano. On U.S. album: Beatles VI - Capitol LP The Beatles - Do You Want To Know A Secret – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: George Recorded February 11, 1963. Written primarily by John Lennon for George Harrison to sing. The song was given to another Brian Epstein-managed act, Billy J. Kramer with the Dakotas, to cover. Their version topped the British charts in late spring 1963. Inspired by "I'm Wishing," a song from Walt Disney’s 1937 animated film “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” that Lennon’s mother used to sing to him when he was a child. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles - Vee-Jay LP The Early Beatles - Capitol LP 3 BREAK… The Beatles - Don’t Bother Me – With The Beatles (Harrison) Lead vocal: George George Harrison’s first recorded original song. While some may see it as a misfortune that Harrison was surrounded by two of the most gifted songwriters in history, this proximity gave him great insight into the mechanics of writing a song from scratch.

  • BWTB April 24Th 2016
    1 PLAYLIST April 27th 2016 9AM 2 The Beatles - Revolution 1 - The Beatles (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John 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. The Beatles - Blackbird - The Beatles (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul Another Paul McCartney solo performance for the “White Album.” Paul wrote “Blackbird” at his Scottish farm house and the song was started and finished in 32 takes, 11 being complete run-throughs of the song, on June 10, 1968.

  • The Fab Faux Brings the Music of the Beatles to Northampton
    The Fab Faux brings the music of The Beatles to Northampton May 03, 2009 The Fab Faux will perform on Friday night at the Calvin Theatre in Northampton. By KEVIN O'HARE For starters, forget every notion you may have ever had about tribute bands. The Fab Faux don't weary goofy wigs, they don't get decked out in phony Sgt. Pepper's uniforms and they don't talk between songs with bogus British accents. But they just might be the most authentic live interpreters of the music of the Beatles on the planet. Well, perhaps other than Paul McCartney when he takes his own band on the road. The Fab Faux will be playing the Calvin Theatre in Northampton on Friday night in a show billed as "From the Cavern to the Rooftop." Led by bassist-singer Will Lee, best known for his work in the band on "The Late Show with David Letterman," and singer-guitarist-keyboardist Jimmy Vivino, a longtime member of Conan O'Brien's band, the Fab Faux formed in 1998 and have been drawing raves along with jaw-dropping looks of amazement from audiences ever since. Lee, whose musical resume reads like a who's who of rock 'n' roll history, spoke recently from his home in New York about the group's background and its goals. He's particularly the right guy for his role in the Faux, in part because he has played with three Beatles (McCartney, Ringo Starr and the late George Harrison) and even played on a track with the late John Lennon as well, but more on that later.
