@@thedogwoods5716 Totally agree! He gets branded as “bossy” and “a control freak” which might very well be true but when you have the quality of material that he was providing it’s hard to not say give him a pass.
I love how Mal is so entranced all the time. He knows the kind of genius that is playing out before his eyes. He knows he is witnessing history in the making, and wants to let every sweet second in.
Actually creating the song. i consider that one together with While My Guitar the best Beatles songs. It is just like being there; litellaly a fly on the wall!!!
Actually its not his first time. He get the idea midnight in his apple studio. His assistant couldn't find him at that time, so he was going home but then he hear melody of this song and followed it. There he found paul playing it on piano. The assistant name was alice or something, he became fan of this melody so paul gave him the first and only demo tape to him next monday. And the tape is still not made public!!!
Yeah true. But they still has to arrange the songs and put each together together with a few exceptions like Get Back and Blackbird. Both pretty much started and finished while John was on lunch (though Get Back with other lyrics). @@sebastianzuzi311
Paul was a magician. Plain and simple, he just touch a piano, bass, or guitar and the most beautiful music just poured out. To see someone so beyond talented create masterpieces on this documentary is what I imagine it must have been like to see da Vinci sketch, or Raphael paint.
@@haamishmcgarry No, it's love, because she knows the song is about her. And, she knows she's watching him conjuring a masterpiece out of the air, and thinking, this is the guy I'm married to.
I don't know what's more intriguing: hearing a song I've heard hundred of times in my life in its building block stages with my mind filling in the blanks during the unformed 2nd verse, or Paul saying he's never seen The Wizard of Oz.
It's easy to forget how media was far less accessible in those days than it is now. The Wizard of Oz didn't actually get its first showing on British TV until Christmas Day 1975 and I'm not sure how often it would have been shown in cinemas after its release in 1939.
Mal was one of the very few who could walk among the band and talk to them while they were working. He played some simple things on a couple Beatles songs and is said to have helped with a (uncredited) lyric or two.
This song always reminds me of a friend Gail singing this as the 3 of us (Cathy, Gail & me) were hitching to Durban from Cape Town as young teenagers (parents thought we were taking a train)... Dared to do so from bunch of Aussie who were dodging the draft... (Vietnam) 1970... What fun it was... Interesting lifts we got... The road past Plett was very long and stretched into the blue yonder and she started singing this... Beatles forever...
McCartney was at his peak during this album. Wish we had seen John at his peak, think this was a particularly bad time in his life. A peppers documentary would have been great.
John reached his peak in The BEATLES album. then dried up in Get Back and Abbey Road. While Paul reached his peak in Revolver and never looked back! He continue to write good songs till this day!
I'd say John was at his peaks in the early Beatles days, then again around Abby Road, then his John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band album. Easily POB/JL is his best stuff and blows most of Paul's Wings and solo stuff out of the water.
@@kaiserreichempireofohio834 but John dried up after Somewhere in NY City Triple Album. Then made a few came back in Walls and Bridges with only No. 1 Solo hit Whatever Gets You Thru the night then after that he went into hiatus and came out of retirement and killed.
@@kaiserreichempireofohio834 Yoko was a big factor in John's career. What Yoko said he do! He was like a puppet. His bodyguard Fred Seaman can prove that.
Mal Evans and John Lennon. The two members of the close-knit Beatles family who decided to go live in the United States, landing on both opposite coasts....Both shot dead.
Doesn’t take anything away from any of it, I’ve just noticed a lot people don’t realise that a lot of this documentary had different audio conversations for the actual visual we were seeing
@@user-ov3kj3wr7kI mean the last 10 seconds of this video, off the top of my head I think there was obvious parts like that where Paul was working on Get Back (the discussions I mean), the bits where they go back to Linda etc and when Paul and the others are sat in that area. If you watch it all again with this in mind trust me you’ll notice it 😂
I believe Peter Jackson mentioned that, in that where they didn’t have footage to match conversations they made sure to show relevant scenes playing out at the time
It’s such a beautiful song that was 100% meant to be sung and arranged by Ray Charles. I love Paul but if you listen to Ray’s version it’s how imagine Paul hears it in his head. Honestly, I have never preferred the Beatles version but I always wanted to love it. I always thought it woulda been cool if RC could sing it. Years and years later I come to find Paul wrote it with him in mind…I knew it.
Too bad Mal was never credited on the projects he contributed, earning a measly wage, dying a pauper…So much for the myth of the Beatles being so generous and kind…
Mal Evans wage was far from "measly". He also had expenses paid for him when he travelled with the band on tour ( he also had many other perks) I think he was also on Apple's payroll when he died. I read that Neil Aspinall was.
George Martin was every bit as important as Mal was. Actually more. Martin was present for the first #1 single. Martin's classically trained ear was less about conceptual creation and more about adding the finishing touches. He took the semi complete product and gave it the detailed polish and shine. Martin added the string quartets, the swirly circus sounds, the trippy sound effects, and the symphony accompaniments. It wasn't until the Beatles evolved back to a more traditional rock n roll sound in the "Let it be" album that Martin saw a diminished contributing role. All after Beatle manager Epstein had died, and the newly formed Apple Corp. was changing the band's direction. By then, they were practically solo artists anyway.
@@LyleMyers @lylemyers Composition 101 Paragraph structure: Typically, an introductory paragraph BEGINS with a sentence that presents the main idea of an essay. This is called the thesis statement. In essay format, more paragraphs may be required to support the thesis statement or otherwise anticipate counter arguments of the thesis statement. Finally, in essay format, there is a conclusion paragraph which often repeats a variation of the thesis statement as referenced in the introductory paragraph. I did not write an essay, but it appears that you require one. I simply thought that the thesis statement was adequately supported in the introductory paragraph. To answer your question, "the point" was the beginning sentence of the introductory paragraph. In other words, revealed in the typical format for English composition and easily identified by people accustomed to this standard.
I think you missed the point of my question. You clearly didn’t answer it. I’m asking you, what is the point of giving us your thesis statement, your mini-essay and your conclusion. Not just the what of it, but the why of it. What is the point of bringing a comparison to George Martin into the comment section of a video that’s neither about him nor has anything at all to do with him? Why would you do that? What was your point in doing that?
@@LyleMyers When you declare, "nor has anything to do with him", I can draw two conclusions. 1) If you think George Martin had nothing to do with ANY given Beatle recording at ANY given time in their history, you are clearly revealing how very little knowledge you have of this band. You are not speaking from a position of expertise and your lack of knowledge will ultimately put you in an awkward position if you persist. 2) You asked what my point was. It was declared in the opening sentence of my paragraph, as is customary with English composition. Your refusal to accept that point is not my problem. It is yours. I can't lead you by the nose on basic simple stuff like this. George Martin was vastly more important to this production than anyone that wasn't a member of the group itself was. THAT...was my point. Accept it for what it is.
Ah, I see. You still seem to be missing my point. I think I get your point, however. It was a flex on your part. Nothing more. A great big ‘hey everyone, I know a lot of things about the Beatles and want to let you know that, so I’m going to write a boorish comment where I draw a comparison to someone who this video was not about. Yes, I think I get the point of your comment. And I think that’s why you’re being rather condescending with your bloviating replies. You just don’t want to admit it. It’s all good. I’m sure Sir George would kindly appreciate you comparing him to Mal the way you did too. I mean seriously, did you really need to compare the fifth Beatle to the road manager?
Or was it Billy Campbell or Billy the kid? It's been 60+ years and you still believe the hoax? My suggestion to you: re 1:00 ad Many Years From Now, Paul's bio published in 1997 and with contributions from real Paul. Happy reading, learn the truth.
@@globalheartwarmingWow! Now Ringo was Billy🤪 I've heard he was Paul, a record producer, a songwriter for the Beatles, a session musician, had his own band, all without anyone having heard of him. Any other accomplishments besides being mentioned in a song? And that he died in 1988 with no mention. I'm sure someone will say it was international news with a funeral attended by a who's who of rock.
@@dianesaari3034 So let me introduce to you / The one and only Billy Shears. Then Ringo sings. That's all there was to it. Ringo was going to be a hairdresser if his music career didn't work out, so in Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band he's Billy Shears. The rest is conspiracy theory nuttiness from people who didn't get enough attention as kids.
@@globalheartwarming That's the best bunch of rubbish I've heard yet. And I always heard that Pau died and was replaced by the fabulous Billy. Silly me. . Update
This album was Paul’s magnus opus. John led the pack but at this point he was increasingly less interested and wrapped up with Yoko, so Paul wrangled all of them together, shouldered the group on his back, powered them through recording this album, and reminded everyone the Beatles are still the number one band in the world.
