Alright this one got me. Wow. What the... only The Beatles. Ringo's drumming here is so crucial. And so are John's vocals and mellotron... What a fun song. They really did throw that middle finger up to those who were reading so deeply into them.

This is the movie version of the song. The Beatles added more insane goodies to the song after the simpler version got locked into the soundtrack. The version on the MMT album and the single release contain the crazy background vocals from the 'Mike Sams Singers' (arranged by George Martin) and it is this version that you need to hear... don't miss out! The Shakespear dialog on the fade out was recorded live off the radio at the time of mixing and could not be duplicated with a second take! Shows you how magical & lucky The Beatles were. Also, you mentioned you have heard 'Goo Goo Ga Joob' somewhere before. You actually heard it last week without knowing the original source; "Goo Goo Ga Joob, Mrs. Robinson'. Paul Simon included the phrase as a nod to The Beatles as 'Walrus' was in the charts when Paul Simon was writing his song! Small world, eh?

It sounds mainstream to "today's ears" because of the Beatles's lasting influence on so much of the mainstream music that came after. What's familiar in the present was groundbreaking when originally made.

@psychedelicpiper999 2 месяца назад

This definitely wouldn’t be considered mainstream in today’s landscape. MGMT made a song in this vein called “Alien Days”, yet most critics trashed it, because it sounded nothing like their hits. That was 2013, and nothing much has changed since then in terms of acceptance. The Beatles get a pass for their reputation, because they can do no wrong in most people’s eyes. (Which they’re right, The Beatles essentially have a perfect catalogue.) But I’ve also noticed a lot of those same people recoil when you point them to experimental psychedelic music from other artists.

@barryderby 2 месяца назад

Wow! One of my favourite Beatles songs from my favourite Beatles albums! When it first came out, London was a place of technicolor wonders. Hippies were everywhere, dressed like ceremonial tribesmen in crushed velvet pants, tie-dyed or Indian shirts, beads, the works. We shopped at Kensington Market - a huge department store which had been taken over by dozens of small Hippie businesses. We had the International Times and Ink, our own newspapers, and Oz magazine. British psychedelia was in full swing, and the music told us we were changing the world! This song, and the whole Magical Mystery Tour album, takes me right back to those amazing days! I'm looking forward to your reaction!

@barryderby 2 месяца назад

@@heartoftheroseI agree. Mind you, I'm prejudiced. I just love British psychedelia - so different from American. The only records of that genre to come close to it are Odgen's Nut Gone Flake by the Small Faces, and S.F. Sorrow by the Pretty Things. But they are both concept albums and need to be taken as a whole, whereas MMT is a collection of brilliant stand-alone songs.

@psychedelicpiper999 2 месяца назад

@@barryderby”The Piper at the Gates of Dawn” is #1 to me. Syd Barrett was a phenomenon. “Piper” smack dab captured the British psych pop music of the time, along with the sound of heavier bands like Cream, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Yardbirds, together with the freak-out nature of Soft Machine and AMM. A smorgasbord of every corner of psychedelic music at the time. I wasn’t there, I’m a millennial, but I’m certainly obsessed with the music for the past 15 years now.

@barryderby 2 месяца назад

@@psychedelicpiper999I agree with you about Piper, but Floyd created their own genre! Their two successful singles from that era - Arnold Layne and See Emily Play were much more typical. Generally British psychedelia was playful, childlike and wistfully nostalgic. Probably Odgen's Nut Gone Flake album by the Small Faces was the best example of this. Even fashions looked back. I remember wearing a Victorian frock coat, and we bought Victorian jewellery from Portobello Market. It was an amazing time to be young and carefree, living in London!

Jeff Lynne couldn't believe The Beatles had created this unique sound, driven by strings, just for one song and so created the Electric Light Orchestra with to take the sound of this one song forward; ending up working with The Threatles themselves. Oasis were signed by ALan McGee because they did a great live version of this very song. Check their wondeful live version on the BBC music show Later... with Jools Holland. The lyrics are very layered, for example Semolina Pilchard is a typical Lennon "In His Own Write" pun about Sgt Norman Pilcher of the Met Police who had decide to make his name by arresting pop stars. As usual I think the opening line is both wonderful and meaningful. "I am he, as you are me, and we are all together" McCartney thinks you cannot criticise Magical Mystery Tour the film because it contains I Am The Walrus... Thanks for the review, take care of your daughters ;)

Everyone likes to forget that Roy Wood was the original motivating force behind ELO, probably because he bailed early on, essentially after one single. The Move (including Wood and Bev Bevan) split up mainly because Roy wanted a band that could play George Martin-style arrangements live. I'm not saying Jeff Lynne was not the pivot and mainstay of the band in the long run, but Roy Wood was also a major talent as a songwriter, arranger, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and producer.

@@thescrewfly yep totally true about Roy Wood as you can see I typed "created the Electric Light Orchestra with..." and then Roy Wood out. I saw Jeff Lynne in The Idle Race in 1968 and they weren't as special as The Move. I bought the ELO first album having been knocked out by 10538 Orchestra. Roy Wood was perhaps too multi-talented and willing to try multiple formats, whereas Lynne was more driven and out for success. I always loved their California Man performance on Top of The Pops, produced at the same time as recording that first ELO album ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sBxZN7nJMEo.html

My favorite color is auburn... I recommend off the white album... Everybody got Something to Hide and off Let It Be- Across the Universe - The latter tune has arguably Lennon's best poetry and the first one Rocks...

Orange is great, but I like purple better. Orange used to be my favorite color when I was a kid.

Oh yeah, they were actually sitting in an English garden when the sun came up most were tripping on acid. Yeah, John wrote a lot of stuff when he was high. George actually wanted to write music and do music well without drugs and that’s why he went to India to study transcendental meditation. Oh my God, I still love these guys so much after 60 years

And yes, you are absolutely having the correct reaction to the song, lyrics and video, even though they're not the original versions. It was meant to elicit WTF reactions. John Lennon really got off on doing that to people. Of course being based on a Lewis Carroll work, it was bound to be weird yet delightful. In an era where music takes itself so seriously, we need more of these kinds of songs.

In before the block, although this might be safe because it's not the official mix. Paul has recently been quoted saying this was his favorite songs of John's. Rick Beato also has a cool breakdown of it. It's a wild song, and the video matches it (again, not sure this is frame for frame the same thing from MMT). Paul was the director for most of the Magical Mystery Tour film, although John might have given him a dream sequence he had for this individual segment, like he did for the restaurant scene.

My father was given a lot of early Beatles singles at the end of the 60s and this was the most satisfying musically. In their top 3 or 4. I pay little attemtion t lyrics.

The movie was made by the BBC as a series of songs linked together by people on a 'Magical Mystery Tour' in a coach. It was first shown in black and white the day after Xmas 1967 at prime time on the BBC's main channel - yeh The Beatles were REALLY big at the time. It was shown again on the only colour channel available 12 days later. The audio is a remix from the master tapes. I prefer the original mix. Also in 1967 there were enough communications satellites up to do a round the world TV broadcast ('Our World'). The UK contribution to this was The Beatles recording another song from the album, All You Need Is Love.
