      Oh Paul has always been able to belt songs out. Check him out singing Little Richard’s “Long Tall Sally” live. There are a number different performances available on TH-cam. He learned to sing like that by watching Richard perform back in their Hamburg days when they hung out together.

      The last Beatles song on the album isn't listed here. A 17 second song called Her Majesty, included by accident. It was on the end of the take used. There's a long blank space before it, like a hidden track.
      John sang I Want You, not Paul. George wrote and sang Here Comes the Sun and Something. The End included three rotating solos. The chunky guitar solos are John, the other two are Paul and George, but no one is 100% sure which is which. That's Ringo's only recorded drum solo (at least with The Beatles).

    Last month Paul did a surprise gig at my city(Brasília) and I was one of the few 300 lucky ones to get a ticket, watched him for 1h40m standing at the front row barrier, less than 2 meters away from him, i could even reach his keyboard if i reach out my arm, i will never forget him singing Golden Slumbers and the last medley right in front of me, never expected for something like this to happen to me, still feels like a dream, one of the best days of my life.

      I’m 67. I was 8 when they came here and we saw them for the first time. They were amazing from the start…a mesmerizing talent! You couldn’t take your eyes off them when they were on tv or in a film. And ask any elder Beatles fan….you couldn’t turn off a Beatles song in the middle of it, either. You had to hear it all the way through. How many times did we pull into the driveway in the middle of a Beatles song and sit in the car in the driveway until it was over.? When I got into a friend’s car, they did it, too. When I met my husband, who grew up a thousand miles away from me, he did it, too! So funny. We both agreed, we both did it out of reverence for their immense talent! It would be like turning off the radio in the middle of God speaking to you. Many people think God sent The Beatles to humanity on Earth…or that they must have been God-inspired or something. I’ve heard that type of thing so many times. Or, they are 4 of God’s angels sent here for us! LOL. WHO KNOWS? Maybe they are.

    Great reaction. FYI: the guitar solo that you hear on the End is actually Paul, George, and John taking turns for 2 bars each. You hear Paul, George, John, then Paul, George, and finishes with John. Re-listen to it again and you notice the personalities of each coming through, as well as the differing guitar tones because each were playing different guitar and likely using different amps. John was definitely using his Epiphone Casino hollow body guitar giving a throaty sound. George was using his Gibson Les Paul that Eric Clapton gave to him as a gift.

    Your point about it not sounding like the other albums and more "mature" is totally right! This was the first and last Beatles album to be recorded on 8-track as opposed to 4 on their previous albums. The biggest thing though was they put it through a solid-state mixing unit that allowed for even more EQ options on each channel. Abbey Road is on so many producers lists as a pinnacle of production and mixing in pop music. That thing came out in 1969 and it sounds like it could've been recorded yesterday.

      I remember listening to them on the radio as a 3 year old - I Wanna Hold Your Hand & She Loves You rocked my preskool world. I even collected Beatles bubblegum cards! Did U?!
      My Mom stood in line for hours so I could have the White Album under the Christmas tree in 1968! I remember the bs around John’s “Christ” comments… We were living in Georgia and I remember the papers saying something about God being dead becuz Beatle John made a comment about it. I asked my Mother about it & she reassured me God, the Universe & my Beatles were all OK! 🥰😂

    The Medley is The Killer. It's a shame you missed the tongue-in-cheek "Her Majesty." Not that it's a great track or anything (like 30 seconds long), but is a beautifully humorous little tip o' the cap to the Queen.
    Great reaction, man. These dudes were way ahead of their time, yet right on time. There's a song from a guy named John Fogerty (he was the front man for a band called Creedence Clearwater Revival, whom you should DEFINITELY check out if you haven't, the song is from his later solo works) called "I Saw It On TV" that is basically a snapshot of Mr. Fogerty's recollections of his formative days. There's a verse in there where he talks about Kennedy getting assassinated and in the next line he says, "Then four guys from England took us all by the hand/It was time to laugh, time to sing, time to join the band..."
    These guys hit at just the right moment in the USA. The country was reeling from JFK's assassination, and a little more than two months later The Beatles played the Ed Sullivan Show (darn near every TV in America on Sunday was tuned to Mr. Sullivan's variety show), and the world was never the same. Talk about hitting it at the perfect moment.
    Check out CCR, dude. Their album "Cosmos Factory" is on my "deserted island" list. They were smoking hot for about 5 years before shit hit the fan for them. Countless hits ("Proud Mary," "Born on the Bayou," "Fortunate Son," among them, along with an awesome cover of "Heard it Through the Grapevine"). Fogerty lost the rights to his songs, couldn't perform them live, and didn't release much of anything new until 1985's "Centerfield." Fogerty is an American legend, IMO, many will agree, others will disagree. But you should def check them out.
    PEACE!!!

    When you listen to the last track "The End", you're listening to Ringo's only Beatles drum solo. That last guitar jam is Paul, George, and John! Listen closely, and you'll recognize that each phrase taken is taken by a different Beatle, in three rounds, and three different styles and guitar sounds. Paul's melodic lines, George's bluesy vibe, and John's aggressive riffs. If you're listening to the right mix, each Beatles' guitar comes through a different place in your headphones. Paul goes first and plays in your left ear. George goes second, and plays in your right ear. John goes third, and plays centered in both. Then Paul, George, John, Paul, George, John. According to many accounts of people that witnessed this being recorded (their sound engineers, etc.) it was the only time that John threw Yoko out of the studio, because it was a special moment for all four of the Beatles. He wanted to savor it without distraction and just enjoy his brothers.

    I like the fact that John’s vocals on I want you, started to “shake” the room from the computer.

    There is a jazz version released just weeks later called ‘the other side idle Abby road’ by George Benson. If you like any Jazz you will love it.

    Seeing people discover new music for the first time are always the best videos. I'm 21 but I've listened to the Beatles since my early teens, the initial mean mr mustard transition gets me every time

    Most people in the younger generations have heard of The Beatles and know that they were huge, but very few truly understand their impact on not just music, but culture around the world. There are people in China today who listen to The Beatles and that is an encouraging thought! They changed far more than music; they changed the world.

    It's fun to see you discover some of the stuff I grew up with!

    Here Comes the Sun is my favorite George Harrison song! It takes me to my happy place! They triple-stacked the vocal harmonies on Because to make it sound like nine voices instead of three! Also, Because is actually Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata played backwards! You can hear liberal usage of a moog synthesizer on several songs. Play the songs from You Never Give Me Your Money to The End without stopping because it's the infamous MEDLEY! You did a great job catching onto that! And that long guitar solo before The End is John, Paul and George trading off solos right before the piano kicks in. If you keep listening until the very end, you get Paul playing an acoustic song called Her Majesty!
