Correction: What You’re Doing is on the Beatles for Sale album, not Rubber Soul. The last 12 string song was “If I Needed Someone”, which is from the Rubber Soul album.
Technically your right Nic it appeared on "Beatles for Sale " in the UK but it appeared on Beatles VI in North America because Capital Records decided to alter the content of the bands albums here in the US which never made any sense to me! It was a McCartney song credited to Lennon-McCartney written in Atlantic city by Paul after the 1964 world tour! LONG LIVE THE FAB FOUR (Great job on that beautiful Ric by the way)
@@rockinrobb4350 yeah I heard Capitol messed with the releases over in the states for some unknown reason. Tho it was on Beatles VI as you stated but in the video he says rubber soul so I believe he was going by the UK releases. One thing I’ve noticed is when doing these compilations most people follow the UK releases as they’re more universally recognized than the US Capitol releases which are only local.
This is terrific, and thank you! I’ve recently picked up a Ric 12, immediately started learning the McGuinn riffs and am now collecting Beatles riffs. Very helpful!
For sure. I did a live stream in which I argued that one could make a solid argument that George is the best rock guitar player ever. It all depends on the qualifications and definition of best. Thanks so much for checking out the video. I really appreciate your time and comment. Take care and have a great weekend. Mark
Another great video....a couple of surprises for me as I didn't realize a couple of those songs were on 12's. Number 1 was another surprise, but no argument at all. Thanks!
Believe me, being a bona fide Beatles geek, I've really heard it. LOL. Good catch. I'm pretty sure the error was made in appending the wrong bit during editing as I know every Beatles song on every Beatles album, or perhaps I genuinely got it wrong. Thanks so much for checking out the video. I appreciate your time and comment. Have a great day and take care. Mark
Lovin' it! Personally, I would have put your #3 at the top of my list - _If I Needed Someone._ That song has stoked my musical furnace since the day it was released. It was on the "Yesterday And Today" album in the US; I think in UK it was on "Rubber Soul"? But everyone's gonna have their own personal preferences. Yours are good ones. Thumbs-up #110 for this! Fred
Thanks so much for checking it out. If you're interested in more than a just the riffs here’s a concert I did with the 12 THE ULTIMATE 12 STRING CONCERT th-cam.com/video/6XZYqNQXByE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=8MinuteAxe. Let me know what you think. Either way, thanks for watching this one. I appreciate your time and comment. Take care and be well. -Mark
Hey Ticarot. I sincerely appreciate the kind words. Being a low mid level youtuber is a strange existence. Too successful (and lucky) to give it up but every time you get a 25k video, you get one that struggles to hit 1000 views. Comments like this are what keeps me going. I mean that very literally. This one was particularly timely. I hope you enjoy the rest of your week. Take care and be well. Mark
I just saw this. I started working on the Byrds top 10 a couple of hours ago. LOL. Great call. Thanks so much for the support. Please take care and be well. -Mark
Aaaaah yes! Best band, best 12 string, best riffs. Me likey. Just out of curiosity, are you going to do the best riffs that were on the 12 string, or the best riffs, on the 12 string?
This sounds like it's gonna be good. By the way Mark, I've moved up to a 0.88 mm pick. Ive found it's easier and better. Just like you said, working my way up, not working up to anything in particular, but it does become easier the thicker you go, to an extent I'm sure. I'm not sure about playing with a 4 mm pick. Anyway, thanks for the help, and the 12 string is still sounding gorgeous.
"If I Needed Someone" Amazing riff, amazing song, amazing album, amazing guitarist, amazingly underrated and under- used songwriter. The Beatles are perfect in my mind and I have no complaints of their body of the art of sound. but I sometimes wonder what their albums would have been like had they utilised more of George's songs. When you listen to " . . . All Things Must Pass," you get an idea, but what would those and other songs have sounded like had they been on Revolver or Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band? Would not some of them been great additions to the White Album? Listening to "It's Only A Northern Song," and "It's All Too Much," from the oft-under-appreciated Yellow Submarine only makes me imagine more of Harrison's unused works and their possible trailheads. The Beatles were and are awesome and more than just a band, they were a 10-year Moment; an event; a milestone in all the lives they touched, and George helped make it all that much more grand.
Hey Joel. Yes, I used the backing track of Ably House for If I Needed Someone. I usually do my own but I just bought the Spark and I went to the cloud thinking that everything on there was just open source. I didnt realize that it came from another youtube channel. I have subsequently checked out the channel and it's fantastic. Did I use a rhythm track from Michael Sokil? I don't know who that is either but I know I got a couple from the Spark. Let me know and if it's the case, I will thank him as well. I appreciate you checking out the video. I hope you have a great day. Please take care and be well. Mark
This is my first time on your channel. Well, yesterday was but I came back today to watch/listen to this one again. I’m adding it to my folder of Exceptional Reaction Videos. Thanks for the enthusiasm and time you put into “Time.” As you grow older, every 10 years or so it will hit you in a new way.
Hey Tony. Was this comment intended for me? I'm not sure what you mean by 'Time'? Either way, I really appreciate you checking out the video. Enjoy the rest of your day and take care. -Mark
@@8MinuteAxe no, sorry, Mark. It was for a new guy doing music reaction videos. I lost my internet connection and apparently this is where the comment went. I have seen your Beatles 12 string riffs though and enjoyed it.
No worries at all Tony. Forward me the video that you enjoyed. I'll check it out. I really appreciate you watching this one too. I hope you have a great evening. Take care and be well. -Mark
@@8MinuteAxe Thanks, Mark. This is the reaction to Pink Floyd’s “Time” where my comment ws supposed to land. I’ve since added it there. Take care and I will look forwwrd to your next video. th-cam.com/video/NFpmfE9jB0c/w-d-xo.html
Liam. That is such a good call. I totally forgot about that song and if asked, I NEVER would have got that right. Proves time and time again that viewers know WAY more than I do. I learn something from you guys everyday. Thanks so much for checking out the video. I appreciate your time and comment. Have a great day and take care. Mark
How beautiful...those amazing songs wouldn't have been the same without the unique sound of this incredible guitar...you prooved and you nailed bro !!!
Hey Tom. Its tough to get definitive info online. I have tons of Beatles books and between the two sources, theres a lot of disagreement as to what songs use a 12 string. I Dont Want To Spoil the Party has been point to as a classic 12 string solo for years but I've read in multiple places that its the Country Gentleman double tracked. Trying to get accurate info on Zeppelin is even harder. The three living members dont even agree on things. Lol. Run sounds like a 12 to me. Anyway, thanks for checking out the video. Mark
hello Mark - as all other videos from your channel that I've watched so far, this is also a very helpful video - and PLEASE let me know where you got this awesome T-SHIRT :) - gtx from the Lake of Constance ;-)
Hey Carlos. Thanks so much for the comment. I got it as a gift but Tee Public has a lot of great t shirts. I appreciate your time. FYI, I'm doing my first live stream Saturday evening at 7pm EDT It's going to be a discussion about the best campfire songs and I'm hoping for a lot of audience participation. Here’s the link th-cam.com/video/XtcqJMX-DSg/w-d-xo.html. Either way, have a great weekend and take care. -Mark
Hey Kaitlyn. Me too. I tell the story of how I became I Beatles fan in my new video THE BEST 12 STRING SONGS OF THE 70S. th-cam.com/video/Zq2m9uAHXTc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=8MinuteAxe. Please check it out when you have a chance. I also give away a brand new 12 string every month. Have a great weekend and take care. -Mark
Hey CV. I'm not sure if I flaked out or miscut the video. What You're Doing is the 13th song on BFS. I know every song on every Beatles album. I am a Beatles nut. I own over 100 Beatles books (including a first printing of the Hunter Davies book) and I've been to 4 international Beatles conventions...and I was a finalist in the trivia contest once. All that being said, I stand corrected here. Lol. I have a couple of close friends that will never let me live that down if they see it. If it didnt already have 3000 views I'd recut it. Good catch my friend. If you have time, check out my covers of A Day in the Life and Lucy in the Sky. I think you'll really enjoy them. The videos to both are pretty cool too. Thanks again. -Mark
Another great video. Been watching your videos for a few weeks now as I've been scratching a 12string itch. My Harley Benton 612 should be arriving in a few days...
‘ What you’re doing ‘ is from a far earlier Beatles Album - Beatles for sale in fact. Unless you’re referencing a USA album release; they had some differentiation between tracks.
Love the Ric sound - can't fit the price into my budget. I ended up with an Eastwood Classic 12 and while it is not 'that' sound,' I have tons of fun with the Beatles and the Byrds! Thanks for the video and riffs to work on!
Hey Maarten. Thanks so much for checking out the video. And I feel the exact same way. I made a video with the opposite idea in mind 6 STRING OR 12 STRING? th-cam.com/video/SWOz4hwxPjw/w-d-xo.html. I really appreciate your time and comment. Please take care. -Mark
Minor correction: your #6, "What You're Doing," wasn't on _Rubber Soul,_ either here or abroad. In the US it was on _Beatles VI;_ in the UK, it was on _Beatles for Sale;_ in both markets, 2 albums before _Rubber Soul._ Also, you skipped #4. What was supposed to be in that place? Fred
I came here after searching for the walnut 360/12 to watch reviews/demos... I miss my 1980 Rick 360/12. I also had a nice 1976 white and black tuxedo 320.. Rare guitar now. Should have never sold them!
Hi Mark - Fantastic sound and presentation. Would you please let me know what your signal chain is for this video ? ( compressors, string brand and gauge, etcetera ) Excellent Rick 12 string tone ! Best Wishes - John
Great stuff. Thanks. Good for you for pronouncing Brian Epstein's surname correctly. There is some disagreement about the intro. to 'Every Little Thing' - some say John wrote and played it.
I'm 60+ and a life long Beatles fan and it it is jaw that the number of songs that used the 12-string has never registered with me so clearly before. I think I must have thought it was doubled or something, or Rickenbackers just sounded like that not noticing the extra strings.
Hey Gabriel. I did for one track (if I needed someone). I thanked them. I actually got the backing track in the Spark Amp Cloud and didnt realize it was linked to a youtube video. Until this video, I had never heard of Ably HB. Great band. I'm guessing you've seen Get Back? Amazing. I have a ton of complete Beatles cover with my own tracks if you're interested. I did pretty cool covers of A Day in the Life and Lucy. Either way, thanks for watching this one. I appreciate your time and comment. Take care and be well. Mark
Hey man, just ordered an Eastwood 12 string electric and it should be here tomorrow, so I'm checking out the video for the first time. I can't help but wonder what the #4 song is? I think you went from #5 to #3 here... What is the #4 beatles 12 string song?? haha.
Hey Charles You wouldn't believe it. I played the solo to A Hard Day's Night. I've used the clip in probably 5 videos. All of a sudden, some guy tells me that I copied his direct recording of it. Honestly, I did it like 4 years ago and I used to use ozone to clean up backing tracks and solo over them. But, my recording was uploaded before his. Doesn't matter. He sent all of his followers to attack me. My wife has some health issues that we had just found out about at the time. Obviously, these people don't care. It got to the point where the easiest thing to do was just to remove it and apologize for something I didn't even do. What baffles me is that I play Cliffs of Dover and Mood for a Day on my channel, why would I need to copy the solo to A Hard Day's Night. Anyway, sorry for the rant but that's why there's a skip. :). Have a great weekend and please take care. Mark
Cool video, but a couple of corrections: Every little thing has 12 string throughout, and was played by John on his 325/12 What You’re Doing was on Beatles For Sale, not Rubber Soul Jangle On!
I'm still kicking myself for the What You're Doing gaffe. I know every song on every album. Hell, I know the running times for every song. LOL. It was an editing mistake and my buddies won't let me live it down. Every Little thing does have that understated part. Great call on that. You have trumped my Beatledom sir. Please let me make it up with this: LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS COVER AND LESSON th-cam.com/video/vZdVOj1wSr8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=8MinuteAxe. I think you'll enjoy it. Please let me know.

Hey Mark! Great guitar and great playing!
Mark, what year is the Rick and what model Dr. Z is that?
Thanks Steve. I really appreciate it. Mark
Can't wait!
This is terrific, and thank you! I’ve recently picked up a Ric 12, immediately started learning the McGuinn riffs and am now collecting Beatles riffs. Very helpful!
The greatest band ever and the greatest music. Thank you for this video
Ahhh! A sneaky but well deserving number one!
great story. a complete new view on The Beatles and the leading role of George as the real soundmaker.
For sure. I did a live stream in which I argued that one could make a solid argument that George is the best rock guitar player ever. It all depends on the qualifications and definition of best. Thanks so much for checking out the video. I really appreciate your time and comment. Take care and have a great weekend. Mark
All great songs. Made great by those iconic riffs
I think my favorite is…all of them! Honestly it’s the Hard Days Night solo. Great job Mark!
I was just playing through it 30 minutes ago and I came upon this old comment. Crazy.
Gonna go ahead and hit the thumbs up! This is gonna be good.
Dont know how I missed replying to this but I appreciate you so much Randy! Mark
Another great video....a couple of surprises for me as I didn't realize a couple of those songs were on 12's. Number 1 was another surprise, but no argument at all. Thanks!

Yes, it was on "Beatles for Sale" in the UK; "Beatles VI" here in the US.
In both markets, 2 albums before "Rubber Soul."

Great work again Axe from Philippines
Would like to.enter to.win 12 s guitar would someone tell me where?..

More please.
I love the Beatles! :)
Yessir I love me some beatles.
Ticket To Ride is such a cool intro, and song.
I Should Have Known Better is one of my favorites also! Awesome video Mark! Appreciate what you do brother!
Hearing these riffs actually gave me goosebumps. Between the drum triplets and the guitar riffs, Ticket To Ride is my favorite to see played. Thanks!
Loved it!!!
Great riffs! Also really enjoyed the pics and backstory of the Beatles interaction with Rickenbacher
Nice! Short and sweet, indeed. Man the Rick sounds good.
Wow! Your Hard Days Night solo was spot-on! Sounded great! :)
@beatlealex9129yea
Number 3 should have been number 1! #nospoilers - nice video Mark
My sentiments exactly, Simon! Even before I saw your comment.
Still, I respect Mark's choices.

Absolutely! Always been my favorite Beatles song just for that guitar solo. I could listen to it forever.

The difference a comma can make😁

Fantastic video! Trip down memory lane. Thanks and very well done.
'If I Needed Someone' is inspired by Roger McGuinn's 12-string Rickenbacker riff on The Byrds 'The Bells of Rhymney'.
Yes, you really can hear McGuinn in that one.
Another brilliant video dude. You're on fire lately!
Thanks for this list, Mark. Have a good one.
The last song George recorded his ‘63 Rickenbacker 360/12 on was “Fish On The Sand” from his 1987 album “Cloud Nine.”

The Beatles Pioneered 12 String music, and rock.. but mostly 12 string music
I love If I Fell as George strums all the way thought the song and picks out several chords and a few transending chords.
Great stuff. Thanks.
Good for you for pronouncing Brian Epstein's surname correctly.
There is some disagreement about the intro. to 'Every Little Thing' - some say John wrote and played it.
I'm 60+ and a life long Beatles fan and it it is jaw that the number of songs that used the 12-string has never registered with me so clearly before. I think I must have thought it was doubled or something, or Rickenbackers just sounded like that not noticing the extra strings.
Love this list !
Amazing, never knew it was a 12 string.
Great stuff!!

between john and paul in the background is the Dakota apt where John would be killed decades later.
You're a god, you use ably house backing track
Hey Gabriel. I did for one track (if I needed someone). I thanked them. I actually got the backing track in the Spark Amp Cloud and didnt realize it was linked to a youtube video. Until this video, I had never heard of Ably HB. Great band. I'm guessing you've seen Get Back? Amazing. I have a ton of complete
Beatles cover with my own tracks if you're interested. I did pretty cool covers of A Day in the Life and Lucy. Either way, thanks for watching this one. I appreciate your time and comment. Take care and be well. Mark
Love your channel...but what about the outro of a Hard Day’s Night?
Hey man, just ordered an Eastwood 12 string electric and it should be here tomorrow, so I'm checking out the video for the first time. I can't help but wonder what the #4 song is? I think you went from #5 to #3 here... What is the #4 beatles 12 string song?? haha.
Hey Charles
You wouldn't believe it. I played the solo to A Hard Day's Night. I've used the clip in probably 5 videos. All of a sudden, some guy tells me that I copied his direct recording of it. Honestly, I did it like 4 years ago and I used to use ozone to clean up backing tracks and solo over them. But, my recording was uploaded before his. Doesn't matter. He sent all of his followers to attack me. My wife has some health issues that we had just found out about at the time. Obviously, these people don't care. It got to the point where the easiest thing to do was just to remove it and apologize for something I didn't even do. What baffles me is that I play Cliffs of Dover and Mood for a Day on my channel, why would I need to copy the solo to A Hard Day's Night. Anyway, sorry for the rant but that's why there's a skip. :). Have a great weekend and please take care.

Didn't John play Across the Universe on a 12 string?
Cool video, but a couple of corrections:
Every little thing has 12 string throughout, and was played by John on his 325/12
What You’re Doing was on Beatles For Sale, not Rubber Soul
Jangle On!
I'm still kicking myself for the What You're Doing gaffe. I know every song on every album. Hell, I know the running times for every song. LOL. It was an editing mistake and my buddies won't let me live it down. Every Little thing does have that understated part. Great call on that. You have trumped my Beatledom sir. Please let me make it up with this: LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS COVER AND LESSON th-cam.com/video/vZdVOj1wSr8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=8MinuteAxe. I think you'll enjoy it. Please let me know. Have a great weekend and take care. -Mark
