  • Super Bowl Singles Sunday 2017
    1 TH PLAYLIST FEB. 5 2017 SUPER SINGLES SUNDAY As we feature the Beatles 1 PLUS LP 2 9AM The entire NEW Beatles 1 PLUS (including bonus highlights) The Beatles - Love Me Do – Please Please Me (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: John and Paul The Beatles’ first single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. Released October 5, 1962, it reached #17 on the British charts. Principally written by Paul McCartney in 1958 and 1959. Recorded with three different drummers: Pete Best (June 6, 1962, EMI), Ringo Starr (September 4, 1962), and Andy White (September 11, 3 1962 with Ringo playing tambourine). The 45 rpm single lists the songwriters as Lennon-McCartney. One of several Beatles songs Paul McCartney owns with Yoko Ono. Starting with the songs recorded for their debut album on February 11, 1963, Lennon and McCartney’s output was attached to their Northern Songs publishing company. Because their first single was released before John and Paul had contracted with a music publisher, EMI assigned it to their own, a company called Ardmore and Beechwood, which took the two songs “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You.” Decades later McCartney and Ono were able to purchase the songs for their respective companies, MPL Communications and Lenono Music. Fun fact: John Lennon shoplifted the harmonica he played on the song from a shop in Holland. On U.S. albums: Introducing… The Beatles (Version 1) - Vee-Jay LP The Early Beatles - Capitol LP The Beatles - From Me To You - A Collection of Beatles Oldies `66 (McCartney-Lennon) Lead vocal: John and Paul The Beatles’ third single release for EMI’s Parlophone label.

Here are some options to consider if one desires a shorter version of this piece. Cut option 1 preserves all of the song content: Approximate performance time – 14:56 “Yesterday” Cut from the end of bar 20 to the beginning of bar 28 (-0:14) “Here Comes The Sun” Cut from the end of bar 76 to the beginning of bar 89 (-0:12) “Blackbird” (-0:16) Cut from the end of bar 137 to the beginning of bar 147 All Violins 8va in bar 137 “All My Lovin’” (-1:00) Cut Woodwinds, Harp & Piano from the end of bar 175 to the beginning of bar 200 Cut Horns, Brass & Perc from the end of bar 174 to the beginning of bar 199 Cut Strings from the end of bar 174 to the beginning of bar 199 (Tacet Violins on the first quarter note of bar 199 – dynamics for Vle, Celli, Cb start p and molto cresc. “Come Together” (-0:35) Cut All except Violins from the end of bar 213 to the beginning of bar 218 Cut Violins from the end of bar 215 to the beginning of bar 220 Cut All from the end of bar 225 to the beginning of bar 236 “Day Tripper” (-0:35) Play All as 2nd time from bar 244 and take 2nd ending “If I Fell” (-0:43) Cut All except 1st Flute, Sus.

  • Beatles Mexican Singles, Identification Guide
    Mexican Single Releases Identification Guide Revised: 28 My 16 Musart Singles Since Mexico is part of North America, Capitol Records USA (whose role it was to oversee Beatles releases in North America) was able to dictate how their records were marketed in Mexico. However, prior to 1965, Capitol had no record company offices in Mexico and therefore licensed its releases to the Musart label, a prominent Mexican record label. All Mexican singles on the Musart label are somewhat scarce; consequently, this list is incomplete. The Beatles' Musart singles are particularly hard to find in VG+ or better condition. singles originally released on this label style Catalog Number "She Loves You"/"I Saw Her Standing There" 3576 "Can't Buy Me Love"/"You Can't Do That" 3595 "From Me to You"/"This Boy" 3596 "I Want to Hold Your Hand"/"I'll Get You" 3605 "Roll Over Beethoven"/"All My Loving" 3611 "Twist and Shout"/"Do You Want to Know a Secret" 3615 "Hard Day's Night"/"Things We Said Today" 3669 "I Should Have Known Better"/"Anytime at All" 3721 "I'll Be Back"/"Love Me Do" 3722 "And I Love Her"/"Tell Me Why" 3761 "I Feel Fine"/"She's a Woman" 3764 "Eight Days a Week"/"I Don't Want to Spoil the Party" 3821 "Rock and Roll Music"/"Baby's in Black" 3823 NOTE 1: Musart promotional singles have orange backgrounds with the words "PROHIBIDA SU VENDA" and "PROMOCION" on the label.

  • Strategic Intertextuality in Three of John Lennonâ•Žs Late Beatles Songs
    STRATEGIC INTERTEXTUALITY IN THREE OF JOHN LENNON’S LATE BEATLES SONGS* MARK SPICER his article will focus on an aspect of the Beatles’ compositional practice that I believe T merits further attention, one that helps to define their late style (that is, from the ground- breaking album Revolver [1966] onwards) and which has had a profound influence on all subsequent composers of popular music: namely, their method of drawing on the resources of pre-existing music (or lyrics, or both) when writing and recording new songs. This may at first seem entirely obvious, especially since nowadays such a practice has been adopted routinely by many songwriters and producers, and is in fact the prevailing compositional strategy within certain pop and rock genres, rap being probably the most blatant example. Many rap artists are well known for their so-called “rap versions,” as Tim Hughes has described them, in which a distinctive element of a pre-existing song is lifted out of its original context—typically via digital sampling—and used as the foundation upon which a new song is built.1 Will Smith’s hit “Wild Wild West” (1999), for example, is composed around a sample of the bass-driven main groove from Stevie Wonder’s funk classic “I Wish” (1976); and Eminem’s hit “Like Toy Soldiers” * This essay is based in part on the first chapter of my dissertation, “British Pop-Rock Music in the Post-Beatles Era” (Ph.D. dissertation, Yale University, 2001). An earlier version was presented at the annual meeting of the Society for Music Theory, Columbus, in November 2002.

  • ARSC Journal
    Compiling a discography of the Beatles is probably among the most difficult of such tasks. Interest in this group is so intense, however, that the enthusiasm of fanhood has propelled many with little discographic experience to compile and publish any number of them, with, as might be expected, variable results. Yet much of the required discographic information is of the most ephemeral nature, "things everybody knows" for which the most accurate source is rumor, so even the more casual attempts can lead to establishing the truth or otherwise of some assertions. Complicating factors abound. First is the item recorded­ proper title, composer credits (often deliberately inaccurate for reasons of high finance), and actual composer. Then there is the recording history-when and where made, on how many tracks, extra personnel. Next is the information about the recording's dissemination, including sufficient data to establish first edition priorities. Manufacturer, country of issue, label name if different from manufacturer's, issue number (all applicable material from the prefix-body-suffix unit), mode (mono, stereo), format (LP, 45, 4-track 3 3/4 ips open reel, reel size, etc). Finally comes the packaging. An informed collector willing to purchase a first edition wants the whole item, not only the plastic. The original cover, label, and inner sleeve should be identified and inserts (posters, photos, calendars, etc.) fully described. Certainly those issues with extra or less sound information, or prominent differences in the mix, should be pinpointed. There have also been quite a number of items counterfeited (some still widely marketed as originals through retail outlets), and means for discerning them should be furnished.
