It says ''George Martin help with piano and arrangements'' but what would he have helped with? The piano part isn't that complex and mostly centered round chords. Paul would've needed no help with that, and he is a fine pianist himself. As for the arrangement part, I think they easily could have come up with the organ, guitar solo's, etc themselves. I don't think GM had that much of a big role in the creating of this song.
DAMN I never put two and two together but thats legit the only Radiohead song I like, and I actually love that song lol kinda paints at least one reason lol
@@michelottaviani3296 The chords in the chorus of Karma Police are C D G F#7, which are the same chords to in the verse of Sexy Sadie when John is singing "You made of a fool of everyone." Also, the outro section for both songs shifts and starts on bminor, and there's even an very similar bassline riff on both songs. This is not at all to criticize Radiohead btw, I absolutely love them! Both songs are phenomenal as well. I wouldn't say Karma Police steals from Sexy Sadie, but it for sure is heavily inspired by it I think. And that's okay! Muscians do that all the freakin time, The Beatles did that a lot too.
It's brilliant. The chord changes on paper shouldn't fly -- like when it drops out of key from the F# to F capturing Lennon's disillusionment -- music is not sound but feeling after all, according to Wallace Stevens.
Yes, this song amazes me in waves. Every few years I find myself coming back to it because something reminds me of it and then I fall into another void of appreciation for it, lol. Love that the Beatles create that with many of their songs.
If anyone doubts why the Beatles replaced their original drummer, this track shows it. Ringo is a master, with perfect tempo, rock solid drumming, and unique fills. If Ringo had drummed on Back to the USSR instead of Paul, that song would have been even greater.
@@jeffstadden9894 yeah, although I don't know about back in the USSR, I think it's great as it is, I listened to it closely a lot and Paul did fantastic job actually
I am so proud of us Beatles fans. How we disect every note, chord, harmony, lyric, time signature and rest note... Plus the inflections so on and so forth. Stay on it my fellow Beatlemanics!
This is absolutely one of my favorite Beatles songs. Listen to Paul play John's unusual chords with all the gusto of someone who clearly understands what his partner is going for, RIngo driving the beat forward as only Ringo can do, George and John's trading guitar licks, and of course, John's magnificent vocals with John, Paul, and George supplying almost "Pip-like" background vocals (the ending, "Sexy Sadie, she's the latest and the greatest of them all!" is breathtaking.). Just an absolute masterpiece. John was on FIRE on the White Album.
John’s unusual chord progressions on almost all his White Album tracks are rock composing at it finest, from Dear Prudence to Sexy Sadie to Happiness is a Warm Gun to Julia to Yer Blues and I’m so Tired… it’s just awe inspiring creativity
Ringo is not human, he's a machine. These isolated tracks really display what an incredible drummer he is. To me, he somewhat gets lost when you hear everything. He's my favorite drummer. He always finds the right drum part for a song. Incredible mix of creativity, consistency and being able to stay in the groove for a particular song. No wonder why the Beatles recruited him to replace Pete Best. If you listen to Pete's work with the Beatles, it's a day and night difference. Ringo and Paul formed an incredible rhythm section.
Me too but apart from the piano Intro here it’s hard to hear it so I don’t think it’s isolated I usually get a professionally transcribed Piano score of the isolated tracks of songs I like.
@@DLD2Music I thought I would be able to hear the piano isolated of the whole song but after the intro it’s not isolated as I can hear the other instruments and the vocals that’s what I mean but thanks for sharing.
@@paulallenMacca it’s because they recorded everything live so there’s bleed through from the other instruments. It seems to be the case on most of the early isolated tracks. It’s the best we can get, still awesome to hear an instrument so prominent in the mix though 👌
He did that very often. Perhaps because he started his fills left handed and it filled the space for him to get his left hand ready. It’s great because it adds suspense for the fill. Another piece of his genius
And Ringo is just superb - again. He is not the world's greatest drummer, but may be my favorite. He has so much control and precision for the song he plays. It's about the song - always about the song.
@@FuckYouWhosNext Oh, I think he is indeed one of the greatest. Chops are not everything. Listen to the result. He exists in a world where we can love everyone from Watts to Bonham to Williams to Bruford to Palmer to Grohl to Cobham to Purdie to Porcaro to Ringo, and on and on. They are all great in their own ways!
the grove ringo has at the end is so freaking good. Paul's bass and ringo's drums together on this song is one of the best groves the beatles ever had.
The whole sound of the White Album was innovative in itself. The crispness of Ringo's drum playing was complemented and complemented by EMI's white coat techs who by request tweaked compression up to 11..giving the album a less over produced sound while adding uniqueness of it's own! brilliant!
I agree but it's not that it's a particularly difficult performance, or that he plays especially well. It's just that it's such an interesting (and pretty) piano riff and piece. very creative and beautifully arranged to fit the track.
@@compteprivefr Exactly. I love how he introduces the song on the D then goes down the G chord in pairs of notes. I learned it so I could play it on the piano. Feels and sounds so good!
It's actually quite fascinating heating the guitar arpeggios on their own, it's one of those details I always knew was there but never really played close attention to and they work really well.
Around 4:01 McCartney sounds like he has a little tempo issue on bass. Does anyone else hear that? Just to be clear: I am a massive Beatles fan and my fav Beatle is Paul. So nothing but love for his massive talent. Sometimes it’s good to hear that the gods sometimes make little mistakes, right? Makes it more human and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I hear that, maybe he's not accustomed to the instrument. Paul is usually on the nose with his notation. But, then sometimes . . . well, distractions???
Yes, lol. But we have to remember that judging isolated instrumentals outside of the mix isn’t really fair to the musician. These days many players just have their riffs looped to save time and effort-which also makes human error minimal. Even legendary musicians will have imperfections when isolated because musicians are only human and playing music is a human-only talent.
Loved everything about this dark haunting yet fascinating song. Heard this song about gazzilion times and it always gives me the willies when it reaches the part “…you have her everything you own just to sit at her table…” such a moving feeling that stirs my whole body everytime I listened to it!!! Thank you for this feed… made me get deeper into inner self. Proud to be a Beatlemaniac!!! Thank you! ❤😢❤😮❤😊
The Beatles were crazy good! Like what is this? I've heard it and have known it over 2 decades and am still like WTH? They were outrageous and I'll love them forever.
Beautiful ringo. Great Job. Inthe bridge you just used your snare and bass. then the impact of your cymbals is greater. You understood this strange music. well done
Do you know who this song is about? Sexy Sadie of T.M. fame ...transcendental meditation, he was a total phoney and slept with a lot of the ladies and he stank!
Es un trabajo de equipo con una química armónica y la conducción de Sir George Martín 5to Beatle y grupo de apoyo. Más de 50 años y sigue tan mágica. Clásicos.
As a life long Beatles fan. I absolutely love these "Fab" uploads. What an incredible band!!! thank you...thank you...thank you for sharing these amazing recordings.
BEATLES, a perfeição em um real conjunto! Cada parte era tocada em função da música como um todo, sem faltas ou excessos. Cada música uma lição sem fim.
Incredible Vocal performance by John starting at 9:45; his use of Falsetto is the best I’ve ever heard, also featured in “Imagine”, “God”, “A Day in the Life” and at the end of “In My Life”. But “Sexy Sadie” really uses it like no other. Think Thom Yorke took notes on John’s singing style and unique chord progressions
In fact he does the VERY same falsetto in the background of "A day in the life" - I will NEVER understand how so many people miss this and still claim it's John doing the "aaah"!!
Ни одна песня в сольном творчестве Леннона, не звучит столь совершенно, как эта. Без вклада Маккартни, как гениального аранжировщика, Леннон мало чего стоит.
We old folks know, but for youngsters: this is about the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The Beatles followed him for awhile, seeking enlightenment in India. But the Yogi was a less than stellar character. Also, this is one of the songs used by Manson to enthrall his followers.
I wonder if that could be George playing the bass. The piano sounds like it was recorded with the basic track, and George's guitar part sounds like an overdub. Also, the bass part is actually pretty rough. :)
Who knows about the real meaning .....what did big John + brother Paul really believe ??? All we need is love...... They also know their songs well be4 they start singing.... The greatest band 4ever + ever ¥
John figured out the Maharishi was a fraud and wrote Sexy Sadie. Too bad he didn't figure it out when it came to Yoko. One of the best songs on the White Album.
