Another fabulous, easy to follow lesson, Mike! I've been playing that song for 50 years, but never felt competent to even try the intro. With your explanation, demonstration, and charts, I did it! I even transposed it into G! You fill the world with goodness via your music❤❤ thank you so much!
Yet when we were first in awe of them in Liverpool the bass player was Stuart Sutcliffe and the lead was played by George. Paul was a rhythm guitarist - he must have been SO frustrated! We couldn't have guessed that he was so multi-talented. They were still incredible...
Seriously dude, you totally blow me away with your lessons on these great Beatle songs! I LOVE how you dig into each person’s part and tie it together with the personality of the guitarist, like with John’s rhythm part being kind of “sarcastic”. The world’s Beatle fan guitarists owe you a debt of gratitude for making these videos! Thanks man!
Paul did it on Wings Over America. The chords and guitar parts are awesome, but how about the words? 'I have never known the like of this, I've been alone and I have missed things and kept out of sight but other girls were never quite like this'.
The album Rubber Soul was my first album, a gift from a freind and this song on acoustic just won me over like nothing ever before. It is great hearing it, seeing you play it & learning how to play it myself, the right way! Mike, you are a gift to all of us die hard Beatle fans... Thanks for your passion...
I have often fantasied what it would be like to have the Beatles walk me through a song and point out all the layers and arrangements that go into making the final cut. Well Mike, with your keen ear and teaching skill you have more than accomplished that!! Many thanks to you as when I re-listen to their songs that you have covered, I notice more of the detail and can appreciate the genius and hard work that went into each recording. You have what it takes to have been in that band. As always I look forward to the next inspirational video!!
This is another fantastic example of mikes ability to disassemble and reassemble songs that are outwardly simple but turn out to be much more fascinating and complicated than they first appear. Thanks Mike for your wonderful ears and work! :-)
Great song. I'm in awe of how George's parts integrate so perfectly into the song, supporting the chord changes, melody, etc. I learn so much from George. (And you as well, Mike-- thanks!)
Mike, you're the best resource for BEatles songs on the internet so far. Thanks for your history and lessons on the greatest music composers of my time!
Mike, I’m a long term Beatles fan since my dad taught me about their existence, never heard of this song until just a while ago while suddenly seeing covers about it. It’s definitely in my top 3 Beatles songs. Thank you for posting this, such a great song. The Beatle fan community appreciates you a lot mike! I’m also a small guitar channel, planning on making a cover of this uploaded soon, I might even build up the confidence to sing it.
This guy is incredible the way he talks and teaches these parts. I’m an up and coming guitar teacher but I am taking so many notes from this guy. He’s got me hooked!!
Entertaining, informative, fun. Always. If you enjoy Beatles tunes and have an appreciation for how they created their unique sounds for each song, Mike Pachelli shows how they did it. Then, at the end, he combines the individual tracks and the accompanying vocals and vocal harmonies into a finished video that sounds as good as the original Beatles' recording. Mike's videos are not to be missed!
I always come here to get an explanation of why the specific notes are being played, rather than just somebody telling you where to put your fingers. Fabulous.
@steve - Thanks and it's REAL good to hear that! And yeah - I think that when a player knows "why" something was played, they can readily use the same theorem and incorporate it in their own music.
That was fantastic as usual Mike! "Rubber Soul" is definitely one of my all time favorite albums. I think of it as a transition between the early Beatles and their more progressive musical genius that followed. Thanks for these lessons & I hope that you are doing well. 👍👍😉😉🎸🎸🎤🎤👏👏
So great. One of my alltime favourite songs. I remember playing that in younger years with a colleague at a campfire in a tent camp as a ballad ... has given that song also a good vibe. The "I put it all together" - is (as I said many times) always a pleasure Mike!
Thank you Mike for this one. It is quite amazing work you did here to interpret the different guitar roles and do as the original. The nice thing is that you are bringing a point of view each individual Beatle on his own guitar. One of my first Beatles songs that I liked when first introduced to their music at teen age. Well done!
Mike, I am a recent new subscriber to your channel. The first time I ever heard this song played live was in 1972 when Jonathan Edwards covered it at Lafayette College in Easton PA where I was a freshman. I wasn't too much of a Beatles fan at that time, but I became one after I learned McCartney had written this song almost 10 years earlier. Seeing you play it again on your vlog brought tears to my eyes. Your tenor voice made all the sounds, sights and feelings from that Saturday night some 50 years ago come alive for me. Thank you. You have a wonderful gift.
Mike, thank you. You have helped me get back into guitar after a 10 year binge. My guitars are my best friends again. My playing has improved dramatically since I discovered your channel. TOTAL RESPECT ALWAYS. How about MULL OF KINTYRER.
Great lesson!!! Love them all! Thank you very much Mike… glad to know every part of who’s playing what part and overdubs on this song. It’s so fantastic to listen and learn every bit note for note! Soooo…accurate. Again… thank you very much Mike!!! ❤
Always loved this song. The solo is so simple, but sounds so great on that 12 string. And as always, loved hearing you play all the parts at the end! Thanks for this, Mike!
Rubber Soul was my go-to album back in the day. Have to laugh at my younger guitar-learner (13yr old) self - I wondered how the heck one guy did all that guitar work on the ascending intro. Duh! Thanks for clearing up the mystery Mike. Enjoyed the lesson - I promise not to try to play all the parts at once (this time).
Mike, thanks so much for all you do. You're good people. You're extremely talented. None of us will ever have the magic those four had back then. That's okay. We can celebrate.
Mike Jones - I didn't "take that the wrong way" in the slightest. I completely agree with you. None of us - especially me - will ever get ANYWHERE near the genius/magic that the lads had!
Nice Lesson and background info on this great Beatle Song. That guitar that you used for Paul's part sounds great! Appreciate all the details that you picked off. Good Job!!
mike u do great work.. just beautiful 4 damn geniuses the instruments they instinctively know how to pick up for every part of every track is mind blowing u do it great justice ❤
Speaking of George on bass, I was blown away by the bass part he plays on Maxwell's Silver Hammer during The Beatles: Get Back. He's playing that six-string Fender bass if I recall rightly.
Fantastic lesson Mike. Beautifully arranged. Thank you. One of my favorites by the Fab Four. Love to play this on guitar too. The pointers are a great help.
