All of the members have been playing in these roles for several years. SONG LIST: Rubber Soul performs music from all phases of the Beatles career, from the early days at Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club through the psychedelic period and beyond. The band is known for playing almost any Beatles request audience members can think of. Here’s a list of some of the most crowd-pleasing favorites the band performs live: • I Want To Hold Your Hand • I Saw Her Standing There • If I Needed Someone • I’ll Follow the Sun • Here Comes the Sun • Can’t Buy Me Love • I Feel Fine • Help! • Paperback Writer • Norwegian Wood • While My Guitar Gently Weeps • A Little Help From My Friends • Should’ve Know Better • Blackbird • Glass Onion • “Abbey Road Medley” - from Mean Mr. Mustard all the way through to The End • Silly Love Songs • I’m Only Sleeping • The Night Before • Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds • Let it Be • For No One • Twist and Shout • Two of Us • Drive My Car • Lovely Rita (Meter Maid) • We Can Work It Out • Please Please Me • Nowhere Man • And I Love Her • If I Fell • Revolution • She Loves You • No Reply • Yellow Submarine • You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away • ‘Til There Was You • Ballad of John & Yoko • I’m a Loser • Roll Over Beethoven • Day Tripper • Taxman • You Really Got a Hold On Me • Get Back • 1 After 909 • Every Little Thing • All Together Now • Sgt.

OTHER SONGS? The band is often asked if they can play other songs besides The Beatles. The answer of course – is yes! Although the show is primarily a Beatles tribute, Rubber Soul has been known to reach deep into the way-back machine and pull out covers from a variety of other bands, to please the crowd, fulfill requests, and add a pinch of diversity when needed. It’s not unusual to hear the band deliver classic rock and alternative crowd- pleasers spanning more than five decades from the 60’s to the current Top 40, from a range of other groups including Cream, Badfinger, Jimi Hendrix, James Brown, Rolling Stones, KISS, AC/DC, The Cure, The Clash, The Romantics, Violent Femmes, Sublime, Crowded House, and more. But at the end of the day, it’s The Beatles, first and foremost, that gets people of all ages and from all walks of life dancing, singing along, and having a great time at virtually any type of venue, event, or special occasion. .

  • Canadian Beatles Albums Identification Guide Updated: 22 De 16
    Canadian Beatles Albums Identification Guide Updated: 22 De 16 Type 1 Rainbow Label Capitol Capitol Records of Canada contracted Beatlemania long before their larger and better-known counterpart to the south. Canadian Capitol's superior decision-making brought Beatles records to Canada in early 1963. After experimenting with the release of a few singles, Capitol was eager to release the Beatles' second British album in Canada. Sources differ as to the release date of the LP, but surely by December 2, 1963, Canada's version of With the Beatles became the first North American Beatles album. Capitol-USA and Capitol-Canada were negotiating the consolidation of their releases, but the US release of The Beatles' Second Album had a title and contained songs that were inappropriate for Canadian release. After a third unique Canadian album, album and single releases were unified. From Something New on, releases in the two countries were nearly identical, although Capitol-Canada continued to issue albums in mono only. At the time when Beatlemania With the Beatles came out, most Canadian pop albums were released in the "6000 Series." The label style in 1963 was a rainbow label, similar to the label used in the United States but with print around the rim of the label that read, "Mfd. in Canada by Capitol Records of Canada, Ltd. Registered User. Copyrighted." Those albums which were originally issued on this label style are: Title Catalog Number Beatlemania With the Beatles T-6051 (mono) Twist and Shout T-6054 (mono) Long Tall Sally T-6063 (mono) Something New T-2108 (mono) Beatles' Story TBO-2222 (mono) Beatles '65 T-2228 (mono) Beatles '65 ST-2228 (stereo) Beatles VI (mono) T-2358 Beatles VI (stereo) ST-2358 NOTE: In 1965, shortly before the release of Beatles VI, Capitol-Canada began to release albums in both mono and stereo.

  • BWTB Revolver @ 50 2016
    1 PLAYLIST AUG. 7th 2016 Part 1 of our Revolver @ 50 Special~ We will dedicate to early versions of songs…plus the single that preceded the release of REVOLVER…Lets start with the first song recorded for the album it was called Mark 1 in April of 1966…good morning hipsters 2 9AM The Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows – Revolver TK1 (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John The first song recorded for what would become the “Revolver” album. John’s composition was unlike anything The Beatles or anyone else had ever recorded. Lennon’s vocal is buried under a wall of sound -- an assemblage of repeating tape loops and sound effects – placed on top of a dense one chord song with basic melody driven by Ringo's thunderous drum pattern. The lyrics were largely taken from “The Psychedelic Experience,” a 1964 book written by Harvard psychologists Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert, which contained an adaptation of the ancient “Tibetan Book of the Dead.” Each Beatle worked at home on creating strange sounds to add to the mix. Then they were added at different speeds sometime backwards. Paul got “arranging” credit. He had discovered that by removing the erase head on his Grundig reel-to-reel tape machine, he could saturate a recording with sound. A bit of….The Beatles - For No One - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul 3 The Beatles - Here, There And Everywhere / TK’s 7 & 13 - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul Written by Paul while sitting by the pool of John’s estate, this classic ballad was inspired by The Beach Boys’ “God Only Knows.” Completed in 14 takes spread over three sessions on June 14, 16 and 17, 1966.

  • “The Beatles Raise the Bar-Yet Again”By Christopher Parker
    “The Beatles Raise the Bar-Yet Again” by Christopher Parker I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, Parker, everyone knows that 1967’s Sgt. Pepper‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band is the Beatles’ greatest album and in fact the greatest album of all time. Nope. No way. I beg to differ. In my humble opinion, 1966’s Revolver, the Beatles album released the year before Sgt. Pepper, is the greatest. Why, you ask? In many ways, Revolver was the beginning of a new era, not only in the career of the Beatles, but in the ever-changing world of rock & roll. The world’s greatest rock band was beginning to tire of the endless touring amidst the chaos of Beatlemania. The constant battling against hordes of screaming fans, and a life lived being jostled and shoved from one hotel room to another were becoming more than tiresome. In addition, during a concert, the volume of screams often exceeded 120 decibels-approximately the same noise level as one would be exposed to if he were standing beside a Boeing 747 during takeoff. No one was listening to their music, and consequently, they were beginning to feel like, as John Lennon would later say, ‘waxworks’ or ‘performing fleas.’ Revolver signals a change from the ‘She Loves You’ era-relatively simple songs of love and relationships- to a new era of songs designed to be listened to. These were songs that could never be played at a live concert. They were creations-works of art-songs that were created to be appreciated and discussed-not to elicit screams from teenage girls.

Innovators: Songwriters David Galenson NBER Working Paper No. 15511 November 2009 JEL No. N00 ABSTRACT Irving Berlin and Cole Porter were two of the great experimental songwriters of the Golden Era. They aimed to create songs that were clear and universal. Their ability to do this improved throughout much of their careers, as their skill in using language to create simple and poignant images improved with experience, and their greatest achievements came in their 40s and 50s. During the 1960s, Bob Dylan and the team of John Lennon and Paul McCartney created a conceptual revolution in popular music. Their goal was to express their own ideas and emotions in novel ways. Their creativity declined with age, as increasing experience produced habits of thought that destroyed their ability to formulate radical new departures from existing practices, so their most innovative contributions appeared early in their careers.

Between 1962, when they made their first recordings, and 1970, when they disbanded, the Beatles drew upon several styles, including rock ‘n’ roll, to produce rock: today a term that almost defines today’s popular music. In 1963 their successes in England as live performers and recording artists inspired Beatlemania, which calls to mind the Lisztomania associated with the spectacular success of Franz Liszt’s 1842 German concert tour.

  • The Beatles and the Crisis of Self-Identity
    Sosland Journal 77 THE BEATLES AND THE CRISIS OF SELF-IDENTITY Jared Gutzmer “Ringo- a lovely performer. George- a mystical unre- alized talent. But John and Paul, Saints John and Paul, were, and made, and aureoled and beatifi ed and eternalized the concept that shall always be known, remembered and deeply loved as The Beatles” -Leonard Bernstein The Beatles are one of the most popular bands of all time. This is an undisputed fact no matter the location. They were so popular that in America, they had to stop touring due to the screaming fans which caused the band not to be able to hear themselves. Never before was there a group that was so incredibly popular in history. This popularity and other fac- tors led the members of the Beatles to change as individuals and as a group as they matured musically and mentally. Their identity shifted from a group identity to a self-identity. From the Beatles fi rst album, Please Please Me, to their last, Let It Be, the shift in their identity can be seen through their music and the appearances that led to individualism and eventually their downfall. 78 Sosland Journal The Music “It would not seem quite so likely that the accompany- ing fever known as Beatlemania will also be success- fully exported. On this side of the Atlantic it is dazed stuff.” -Jack Gould, New York Times television critic The Beatles music and lyrics changed drastically from their fi rst to last album due to adapting to a changing soci- ety, musical maturity, and their increased popularity.

Lennon 1.00 3 The Beatles - Baby, You’re A Rich Man - Non-LP track (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John The Beatles’ fifteenth single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. The Beatles were contractually obligated to deliver four new songs for inclusion in the “Yellow Submarine” animated film project. “Baby, You’re A Rich Man” was the first song 4 recorded especially for that project. Earlier in the year, George Harrison’s initial offering for the “Sgt. Pepper” album, “Only A Northern Song,” had been rejected for that album and was now being earmarked for use in the “Yellow Submarine” animated film. But with the rush-release of “All You Need Is Love” as a single following the “Our World” world television transmission on June 25, 1967, a B-side was needed.

  • A Guide to French Odeon/Apple Beatles LP's
    Identifying Original French Beatles Albums Updated: 03 Oc 20 Dark Green Odéon Label From the first French Odeon LP in the OSX series – Yves Montand’s Théâtre de l'Étoile – the Odéon label style was green and had ODÉON in large letters across the top of the label. At the end of 1963, the color was changed to blue, but not before one Beatles album had been released. Catalog Number Title OSX 222 (mono, green label) Les Beatles (With the Beatles) Dark Blue/Orange Odéon In early 1964, the green label was traded in for blue, but by the middle of 1964 most LP’s were being pressed on an orange label – even though some retained the blue color. By 1965, the color of choice was usually orange. At any rate, three Beatles LP’s exist only on the orange label. This label style has ODÉON in large letters across the top of the label just like its predecessor had. Those albums which were originally issued on the second Odéon label are as follows: Catalog Number Title OSX 222 (mono, dark blue label) Les Beatles (With the Beatles) OSX 225 (mono, dark blue label) Les Beatles No. 1 (Please Please Me) OSX 230 (mono, dark blue label) Chansons du Film Help!
