  • This is my reconstruction of all the filmed footage of the Beatles' recording session at Studio 3 at Abbey Road for Hey Bulldog. I have taken the raw footage from an HMC disc, and added HD footage from the original Lady Madonna promo as well as Hey Bulldog. I have also appropriately synced each clip where they are recording for the song (so certain scenes sadly cannot have any audio attached). Enjoy!

    If any other band had released this song, it’d be their defining song, biggest hit. For the Beatles, it was just a song they made for a movie. What a great band

      ​@A Bored English Guy not really. With the Stones and Jumpin Jack Flash, it was and was meant to be put out there as their next big smash/hit/release/single. Not just an aside, or piece for a soundtrack album, like this was. And while it is true and agreed that when Jagger and Richards were on the ball, they were great. But... never anything comparable to the Beatles. Lennon and McCartney were already old pros at writing and composing a hit by the time when the Stones manager began telling Mick and Keith that they needed to lock themselves up in a room alone and not come out until they've figured out how to write songs like the Beatles. And, as a favor and example to use, Oldham (Stones first manager) even went to Lennon and McCartney to ask them to write and then hand over to them something original that they could use. John and Paul then wrote and gave them the song "I wanna be your man" and it then became the Stones first big one that got the ball rolling for the whole world to begin listening to them. In the beginning Brian Jones was pretty much all of the talent in the Stones, until the rest of them all also came into their own and began being a real force. Personally I love the Beatles and I also love the Stones. But when each of them were doing their absolute best work, it was also a very different thing that they each were doing. Not really "apples to apples" and fair to try to straight up compare. They were both legendary and great. But all things considered, the Beatles still will forever have the edge and upper hand.

This was in like 1962 bro. How wrong were they?

      The Beatles. The Greatest Band of All Time. Their influence on Rock and Pop Music is Worldwide, since February of '64. No other band comes close. They've outsold every other band or artist, and continue to do so, 50 some years after they broke up. Again, No One comes close. Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt.Pepper, The Beatles (White Album) and Abbey Road are 5 of the Top 100 Albums of All Time, considering all 5 were recorded in a little over 4 years. 20 #1 Hit Records (45RPMs) between '64 and '70. They are the only band to be in the RNRHOF as a Group and as Solo Artists.

      Ya know, I am going through as many YT video's where George Martin, George Harrison, John Lennon or Paul McCartney talk about the early days.
      I can only imagine that most of them will get pulled down by any of the Estate Members. It's happened before & I was pissed at myself for not downloading any of those interviews. But that was then & now it's now baby, I'm downloading everything I can find because I have two younger generations in our family who are Beatle Fans & that is so cool..... I can still remember back when my son told me that he loved listening to The Beatles. Then about 15 years ago, my oldest Grandson mentioned the same thing to me.

    I concur with all those who see the genius in this song. The thing about this group, the thing that too damn many people overlook, is that even songs that some dolts consider to be a "throwaway", are whip-smart and more fun that the best tune from
    thousands of other bands. On top of that, you get a tremendous performance, spontaneous, rocking, rollicking, and sharp as a tack. And as a bonus, far better production than the digitized, computerized and auto-tuned sadness that we are stuck with at the moment.

      Part of the problem with John during the Get Back Sessions was his lack of New Material, let alone being Stoned and constantly having Yoko around. It bothered Paul and it was also a factor in George splitting the Band for a bit, despite his Argument with Paul days before and his Argument with John about Yoko on the day he left. John's only real contributions to those sessions was Dig A Pony and Don't Let Me Down, and to a lesser extent, the Everybody Had A Hard Year part of I've Got A Feeling. Not Lennon at his best. If Lennon could've come up with a Hey Bulldog type song or two, things may have been alot different, vibe wise.
