INTERESTING! | You Can't Do That (Anthology 1 Version) - The Beatles (Reaction) 

Guys I am fully aware that this is not the final version. I was asked to reaction to this version specifically because of that reason. Just something interesting to hear.

A demo! Very cool. Thanks to you & your patron for sharing. I like your thoughtful, detailed reaction, thanks for that too!

First time hearing this version and really enjoying it.

Raw Beatles from back in the day!

I've been partial to Harrison. He was my distant cousin. Me and 6,000 other people haha. Harrison is a pretty big clan.

Love this version ~ clean and hearing John's voice, alone, is a treat!

I love these ones that show how songs developed. So cool

Ticket to Ride for some great John vocals and an off beat from Ringo that makes the song just killer!

I got Anthology before it was released to the public and I loved hearing all their different takes and other songs that never got air play or made it to albums. Big fan of John's raw vocals any chance to get to hear them as he double-tracked and tried to otherwise disguise his voice on so many of his songs. (He didn't like his voice, shockingly enough!)

"It's Actually Really COOL".... Yep

JM.. do the tunes you want, that your supporters ask for. Ignore the small minds, as I'm sure you do.

Wow! Sorry I missed this one! Yes, I specifically asked for this one because I thought it was very interesting with just Lennon on the lead vocals. And, as someone mentioned below, there is a version of them live in Melbourne Australia which is a great film of the Beatles live performance of this song.

Could you play The Beatles song Long Tall Sally....... it's a Little Richard cover and Paul really kills it

The Anthology albums are worth owning. 😎

Never heard this version before without backing vocals. Like the studio version better.

Anthology versions are a whole new beatles catalog. Please react to others songs too!

Listen to the one that got released in 1964

JMBOY TV IGNORE all these negative comments that some of these people no NOTHING about as they OBVIOUSLY have NEVER heard any of the 3 BEATLES ANTHOLOGY ALBUMS. Any Beatles' fan worth their salt would know and HAVE all 3 albums. PLEASE DO MORE reactions from ANTHOLOGY, especially "AND YOUR BIRD CAN SING" (which is HILARIOUS) and "ROCKY RACOON" (also funny) and how they originally tried a different intro to "Eight Days a Week" There is a LOT of good stuff on here. But I would DEFINATELY listen to the FINIISHED recordings on their albums that were released through the years and THEN listen to their counter parts on the ANTHOLOGY albums. Perhaps to AVOID further nasty comments, do a reaction where you FIRST play the RECORDED version on their usual album releases, and THEN play the SAME song from the ANTHOLOGY album, so they can compare!

Not Bad I guess. But I Prefer the Original! With Paul & George singing back up.

A better version is with the other lads singing backup.

No. The final version of this song has Paul and George's harmony response vocals. Nothing without them.

It sounds great but the released version was much better as you get all the backing vocals with it.

This is just John singing. You're missing half of the song. Not sure why Anthology included this unfinished version.

ALWAYS do the original not some other version NO ONE HEARD OF -what is the point of listening to a different version than the original that made it a hit? fu** anthology versions no one heard of - released a hundred years later -versions rejected for the album!!! do the REAL SONG THE ACTUAL SONG IT IS STUPID STUPID STUPID TO DO ANTHOLOGY VERSIONS AND NOT THE REAL THING STUPID !!!!!!! WHY NOT HEAR WHAT EVERYONE HEARD????

Pretty damn good for '63 or '64, huh? This is why the Beatles were so huge when they started, the writing was so clever, tunes so catchy, excellent musicianship, great vocals. Then they blasted off and took music into a whole new dimension.

There is a great live performance of this song in Australia in 1964

The Anthology CDs were mostly early takes and rarities. The final version of this song added backing vocals.

Makes me want to get up and do The Pony! Anyone remember that dance? LOL

They can do anything!

Love the early Beatles, and this was an interesting version I've never heard, but it's a great song! Thanks for another great reaction, JM! ✌💙✌

I'm missing the backing vocals. This is a different version

That was raw. But cool. The Beatles in the garage trying out a new sound, a heavier r&b sound. Paul, if that was Paul on bass, was cutting up. And they were grooving pretty well too, until around two thirds in when they slipped around a turn. But they kept going anyway and finished out the song with a wack guitar solo too. Perhaps if they had more time they might have released a polished up alternate take more in line with this groove.

No backing vocals? That makes it for me!

This is Lennon writing a song and singing like Wilson Pickett who he fondly admires

Now compare it to the version they put out at that time. Lot's of alternative takes on Anthology of various songs.

You love John's vocals too?! My favorite of all of them, even though I adore them all. John really disliked his voice, and asked their producer George Martin to do all kinds of things to cover it up. You should listen to all of Anthology. It's a real treat for the ears of John Lennon vocal lovers. :) Oh, search out 'sugar plum fairy sugar plum fairy' on YT and there should be a very short video showing John counting in to A Day in the Life saying that. It adds to the haunting quality of the song.

It just sounds like a live take in the studio, and a damn solid one. Its really close to the album version. Add in some backing harmonies and it's done.

Great choice!

Name another person more important to modern music than John Lennon.

Our Boy John... My Favorite.

The great rock-n-roll voice of John Lennon. Nice version on Anthology 1 and nice reaction. Thank you for the reaction.

Thank you!!! Awesome that you react to Anthology, nobody does it!!!!

There are some good versions in the Anthology series. Can't Buy Me Love is more bluesy. Come Together, Get Back, Tomorrow Never Knows (Take 1), .... I'd say you should listen to the official versions first though.

Another great vid. Love your reactions brother. How about trying out Bowie's Moonage Daydream, or even, the last Ziggy Stardust concert version of Width of a Circle (live). You'll never forget Bowie's performance. Unsurpassed man.

Okay maybe I'm lost in the world wind. But this is all new to me too and I'm 62 hey there's a rhyme in there somewhere but you know

Please listen to the original song with the choir ! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6PK21u7YzmI.html

1964

❤❤❤❤

this take is missing the backing and chorus vocals. very strong nonetheless. interesting.

This is just another insecure Lennon rant. He wrote several with this tone.

This is a great version of the the song. You don’t always have to have the other guys singing. Those people who have criticized this version don’t know what they are talking about. Are the other Beatles singing with Paul on Yesterday?

There is a slighter better version by the Beatles.
