The woman sitting in on the White Album session with Paul is Francie Schwartz, a twenty-three-year-old New York scriptwriter, who had travelled to London to interest Apple Corps in a film script. Schwartz was then asked by McCartney to move into his Cavendish Avenue house, and was given a job working for Derek Taylor at Apple, which was then based in Wigmore Street, London. She attended many sessions during the recording of the White Album, and was living with McCartney for a few months, before they broke up. Shortly after, Schwartz sold the story of her time at Cavendish Avenue to Rolling Stone magazine, which you can read online if you're interested.
Awesome! Thank you for letting me know!
And there is a book she wrote, probably out of print, called Body Count.
U know Paul hit that.
So not only Lennons woman attended Beatles sessions, I learn something new about The Beatles all the time; they're continually entertaining us with new information all the time, even though it was already out there years ago..
@@neonh161Her name is Yoko. You can say it.
I don’t see why everyone is saying that they’re struggling to tune their guitars. What they’re doing is simply… tuning their guitars! It takes a minute to do such a thing, and they’re doing it by ear too. You try it.
Also, they usually put new strings on them for recordings, and as most of us know, new strings won't stayed tuned very well until they stretch of bit....
I've been a guitar teacher for 30 years. I love the Beatles, but they're not the best at tuning in this vid lol.
@jasonschnitker6526 well then you should know better as acoustic guitars need tuning and if not tuning to a nearby concert pitch instrument or tuning (fork)..pre digital days FYI then you tune to your partners instrument or just tune each string by ear in relation to the next one if you are on your own with no tuning tools.
It's all good. It's a random clip of them tuning, and I'm sure they were awesome at it 99% of the time. It's a funny but a meaningless criticism when compared to their greatness as composers, producers, and musicians. They were the best. And yes, I have the benefit of a snark constantly clipped to my headstock lol.
Who is the chick? Paul has his own Yoko. Wassup wit dat?
Interesting to hear Paul working on Helter Skelter as an acoustic number in the background.
Yes! Acoustic!
The history of that song is amazing. It started out as a slow, bluesy acoustic song. Paul heard Pete Townshend say that a The Who song was the hardest ever recorded. Paul took it as a challenge and wanted the dirtiest, nastiest thing he could create. People have called it the origin song of heavy metal.
I've never been more excited to watch/hear guitars being tuned than right now. Great stuff.
I like it, too
This was before portable tuners were available!
This is sarcasm? How about the long stretch with virtually no sound, Lennon speaking indecipherably, and Yoko whispering inaudibly? Were these exciting too? How the cacophony of Lennon and McCartney simultaneously playing different tunes in different keys?
@@kurtweiand7086 Yes, in those days tuners were gigantic and had to be housed in their own separate buildings. You couldn’t take them with you. Wouldn’t even fit in an EMI studio.
@@jeffryphillipsburns thanks for your opinion and merry Christmas.
Even watching Lennon tune his guitar is bloody awesome
John does it the way I do it
It's Paul
@@robertstreet7177 Yeah, later on Paul too, but I wrote my reaction after seeing just John tuning
I respectfully DISAGREE. To quote Neil Innes (parodying Bob Dylan), " I've suffered for my music. Now it's your turn..."
Obviously you're not a musician, there's nothing more frustrating than the sound of musicians attempting to tune their instruments, aaaaaaaaaaaargh!
03:25 It's really interesting to hear John "producing" Mother Nature's Son while Paul is performing it solo. It's good to know they were actually working together on tracks that's could be construed of signs of the band breaking up.
There's also a recording of Paul giving notes to John during the recording of Julia.
I agree, though I think too big a deal was made about them doing solo and duo tracks. It was, after all, a sprawling double album, and as CSNY would soon prove, a group doesn't have to follow strict guidelines or always play as a unit to make lasting music.
😅
O😊
Pauls practicing already 3 songs while everyone else is grabbing the guitar oh my god !
Holy crap, I had no idea this footage even existed. Thanks for posting.
So many geniuses collaborating.. GEorge Martin had a time keeping it all together...what a genius himself.
Martin was himself collaborating with co-producer Yoko Oh No!
We can exclude Yoko. She had / has zero talent, and had no right to be anywhere near that recording studio.
@@alanduncan1980 Considering he was a man in his 20's, Paul McCartney demonstrated precocious forbearance with the situation. I'd have tossed a tambourine at her.
@@alanduncan1980 Some geniuses prefer to have friends with them....I used to take my wife and kids to gigs....in the recording process it can cause inspiration and not hindrance.....its weird - I also worked in a warehouse and then it just wouldn't work lol
The dynamic of paul and John never really died no matter what happened with buissness they still had a mutual respect for one another and no matter what john may have said in the 70s he still had a great deal of respect and love for paul.
I've heard this audio many times before, but I had no idea there was actual video to it. This is awesome! Thanks for it. ^^
According to Peter Jackson there are 3 to 4 hours of footage from the White Album sessions.
This film footage gets longer every year I've never seen as much as here. Maybe we will get the whole documentary one day soon!
They're gonna milk that cow
Where is this from?
Just what I thought! White Album documentary coming soon... hehe
Thank you for this wonderful post on TH-cam…. I love all the post on the Beatles… it’s insight! It’s so amazing a time!
You're very welcome!
This is such an amazing treat. Thank you for posting it!
Pauly doing helter skelter in background. Crazy
Also, doing Blackbird starting at 2:16
he was at the top trying to slide to the bottom and back up to the top again i suppose
As a Beatle Fan, This is very cool. Thank You
Man, what a blessing modern clip-on guitars tuners are!
Definitely my favorite album of all times. I remember when it came out.
yeah, the honkey album IMO is their best shhit
"..blackbird singing in the dead of night.."
just heard Paul singing that
wonderful 🙂 x
John: Which key is it in really?
Paul: (falsetto) 🎵Geeeeeeeee🎵
2:43😂
Bloody great stuff lad❤
So John came up with the idea of adding brass to Mother's Nature Son
Really? I didn't know that.
@@SuperGogetem He makes the suggestion in the video above while Paul is rehearsing that number.
Paul's reaction suggests that he was thinking along those lines anyway.
@@garyjames1745 does it?
Yes.
This is great footage. Cheers mate. Someone should find all the footage from this time ( white album) and put out a mini doc like get back. Ive never seen this till now..its like finding £100 😅 👍🏻
Paul is a much better guitar player than he is given credit for. How can you begin to measure the Beatles gift to music. Many performers could have made a career out of just a couple of their songs.
Well said. They had an amazing team of songwriters and session musicians.
@@coolnamebro What are you talking about? If you're talking about the Beatles, they had none of those things. They did not need them.
"The Beatles were just average musicians!"
is a take I hate seeing. Ringo and Paul were incredible with their instruments, and John/George weren't anything to complain about either.
@@Y-two-K My response to that trope is always a variation of "compared to whom?" If they respond by naming musicians who emerged IN THE WAKE of the Beatles, I know they don't know what they're talking about.
@@coolnamebroYes they were called John Paul George and Ringo.
Gracias por compartir todo lo que sea Beatles me encanta. 😊
Maravilloso video
how wonderful seeing this. so much talent, those guys.
You mean the Indian musicians at the end? I quite agree.
@@jeffryphillipsburns no, I mean The Beatles!
Absolutely Fab video!
Thanks so much!
@@josephmhtx✌️😉
Holai Shyte, this is precious! You see clearly that Paul and John were working in different things. No wonder the White Album not only figures the four Beatles in different photos, not in the same picture, but they clearly started showing off the particular style of each member from this point on. John's songs, for example, sound like his solo carrer's songs much more than before.
I just want Francie to lean over and say, “Born a poor YOUNG country boy?! Everyone’s young when they’re born, Paul. You gotta change that lyric!”
Nah, don't change a thing.
Haha! Good point. Possibly Paul might have replied : "Yes love, it's true many of us were born at a very early age, but the idea here is being 'born into the situation of being young-and-poor, rather than just being 'born young.'
Yeah, YOU tell PAUL FREAKING MCCARTNEY how to write a song! LOL
@@syater George had the song with "I was so young when I was born, my eyes could not yet see...".
Always miffed by that lyrics
great to see this videos again
Now this is real music!
This is so cool!! I had no idea that “Martha” had a completely different incarnation!
Wowwwwww! Thank you.
Very good video!!!
Nice. Thanks
Love seeing these on TH-cam. Our high School band Fox learned Back In The USSR
From the White Album in 1971 for our dances. 🎸😃
You mean your high school band was named “Fox” or your high school band had a fox? As far as I knew our high school band was named “band”. I didn’t play in it. I played in orchestra. It was called “orchestra”. (Somewhere within 1971-1974 our high school band performed “Hey, Jude”, at assembly, and Jerry Fleming took a long improvised sax solo at the end. He was in his glory.)
Hi Jeff,
The band was called Fox... How I came up with that name,
Maybe because it was an easy name. Me and the other members kicked
around names and decided on that. That must have been amazing seeing "Hey Jude" played like that in an assembly. I remember assemblies, almost every Friday morning. How bout this! One Friday morning assembly, 1969 I think The school Cheerleaders come out and dance to "Fire" by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown! This guy was like "Alice Cooper" that never made it big. Cheerleaders in their CHS green and white outfits jumping around with the "45" record of that blasting through the auditorium. That was wild - Still remember that one! 😇 th-cam.com/video/NOErZuzZpS8/w-d-xo.html
Bro this video..... The quality.... I've never seen this video before
Glad to see even John Lennon and Paul McCartney, with their expensive guitars, had tuning issues. Makes me feel less of a loser with my cheap instruments 😅
Exactly what I was thinking of !!
All guitars go out of tune. But what is notable is that there is no tuning device in sight - just a good pair of ears. There were such things as electromechanical strobe tuners going back to the 1930s, but even when recording a take, I doubt they would have used anything more than a tuning fork.
Perfect tuning is overrated. Before the 80's it was not so common to have a perfectly intonated or even perfectly tuned guitars and yet I think records sound better when there is a slight difference in tuning between the instruments.
@@avanti6058 Yes. But the thing is, many people nowadays can't (or believe they can't) even manage *imperfect* tuning without the aid of an electronic device. I think that musicians were more accustomed to trusting their ears back then, and had, on average, a more highly developed sense of pitch, just through practice. I doubt whether George Martin's ear for tuning was any less sharp than a half-decent electronic tuner.
newly changed strings is adjusted several time until tension is stable
fantastic !!
Amazing
Love this song aways one of my favorites
Good timing with his foot taps . Recorded live. crazy
There is a metronome running.
What's crazy about it?
I'd say the video camera is a more important invention than flight or autos. What a treasure!
Que buen material han estado sacando!
Es muy interesante todo lo que están haciendo con el material... Pero también noté que a Yoko se le transformo el Iris de los dos ojos completamente en Blanco!?
Insuperabile❤
Towards the end of the clip hearing the beginning of ‘Martha my Dear’ whilst watching a much earlier version of John’s RR, I’m singing to myself
“ prancing around London, in my Phantom V”
Never saw close-ups of Francie Schwartz before but there she is during the makings of Mother Nature's Son and Blackbird.
That lady with Paul is mesmerized ❤❤ I bet her poor heart was demolished. Paul had already met Linda by then and had her in his sights
She's much prettier than Linda, too. IMO 😉
Acoustic helter skelter is something I didn’t know I needed
What an awesome version of blackbird. That ambient tape flutter sound just like broken wings!
This sort of video reminds me the Clouzot’s documentary about Picasso. All about the process, the genius of artists creating stuff We are lucky to have access to these treasures. We have Monet, Rodin …on tape/pictures. Imagine…for only a few years (at the scale of humanity) we could have seen/heared Wolfgang or Bach. Let’s enjoy what we have now …because it is amazing
Brilliant. Never saw the first bit of that before (J&Y and George M.).
INSUPERABLE PAUL❤
...and kids, if you wait to the very end you will see Sir Paul drinking water from the *tap*- in London! Enjoyable vid. I thoroughly enjoyed Get Back because of the seeing the song writing process.
You know Paul and John knew that they were blessed that their paths crossed at the perfect timing of synchronicity ❤
they grew up in the same hood... Nothing about being blessed
@@glennhfriedman4571 That was a weird thing to say
Yoko killed the Beatles
Uau espetacular Espetacular 😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Paul young was so beautiful!
this is what I like and miss about most music docs -- between the drugs, the groupies, the tours, the interviews and recordings.....How did he write the actual song? this gives a glimpse.
Love heater shelter in the background
Wow, an acoustic blues version of "Helter Skelter" in the background.
After listening to this several times, it seems Paul is practicing far more songs than people realise. He starts with Helter Skelter at 0.20. At 1:06 he does what sounds like a very early version of Oh! Darling. Then he moves into Blackbird and Mother Natures son. At 4.22 he breifly seems to play what sounds like the opening of a song he released in 1997 called Little Willow. Finally the end Piano peice which seems to be an early version of Martha my Dear also seems to have parts of Octopuses' Garden in it! Specifically the chorus, and the "I'd ask my friends to come and see/an octpuses garden with me" part.
They had around 50 songs already written when they went in the studio that they wrote in India and rehearsed at George's house in Esther
Little Willow was about Maureen, ringos wife at that time in 68
Um documentário sobre o álbum branco urgente 😂😂😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I hope to find John Lennon singing Good Night 😢
I've heard a short snippet of that
Could you share it@@MarcoPolo-fy4qr ?
sung by Ringo
John sang the demo, but Ringo’s voice was perfect for it.
Ahh the White Album, the first Beatles solo album 😊
Pepper is a close second...
11 written by McCartney, 10 written by Lennon, 2 Starkey, 4 Harrison, and 3 collaborations, how exactly is that a solo album ?
@@markpaxton9895because much of the songs and the productions were primarily their own. There was collaboration throughout, but each songwriter took the arrangement and production to their own direction. It wasn’t like the older albums where it was a complete group effort start to finish on arrangements and production. Many of the songs were worked on individually by said songwriter with the rest of the group primarily overdubbing.
@@markpaxton9895 It’s common knowledge that hardly a song on that album had all four Beatles performing on it at the same time, many songs it was only 2 and some only 1.
Two albums ( John, Paul), one EP (George), one single (Ringo)
Ohhh so ,Paul brought a girl too???
He did. They lived together for 3 months.
Wow , John suggesting the brass band for mother natures son, he compares it to 'Nilsson's Brass band'. So awesome to hear that
She's clearly enchanted. What a moment. ✨
Infatuated is more like it. She looks foolish, sitting there, practically drooling over McCartney tuning his guitar.
If she wasn't, Paul wouldn't be giving her any later
@@sess122she's sitting next to the one of the most famous people in the world listening (before almost anyone else) to one of the greatest songs of all time. She's got good reason to make doe eyes. You sound either jealous or misogynistic to me.
Tell me who is she? Apart from Billy's handler?
@@sess122she's Billy's handler for sure
Special people at the special time❤
❤❤❤
The original songs of the "Forever BEATLES" - BLACKBIRD!
John Lennon and PAUL McCARTNEY.
The more clips of John Lennon I watch, the harder it is to pin him down. He's a true enigma.
Here's hoping we get a Peter Jackson produced film from these White Album videos - seems it might be a possibility as there is apparently a good amount of footage.
John was awesome ⭐
And a very poor father to his son Julian
@crazyantny9161 and you're perfect 🤦
@@ACDZ123 Nobody’s is perfect but few ones behaved so badly against their first son called them “ a child of alcohol “ not wanted…. And it’s a lie since Mimi and his sister Julia said he wanted to marry Cynthia and wanted the baby too but you a Lennon ‘s syncopate trying to minimize everything he did!
@@ACDZ123 AH! Being the dope I am, I stayed with my kids mother whom I never loved., who was a lieying, stealing cheating peice of crap and a nut job till my son graduated college!!! This included him having a battle with Birketts Syndrome when he was 8 "that's cancer and leukemia at the same time". Yeah, just so he could have 2 parents as I had none! A good parent puts the child first whether it's a mistake or not! If good parent who finds another peice of ass, they should never desert the child as a casualty of no longer having interest in the other parent! By the way.... Lennon was one of the biggest hypocrites of all time... Btw, I'm no McCartney fan, but at least he was a good family man
more of this please
Gracias por compartir el video, no sé porque al ver a la chica vestida de blanco al lado de Paul me hace recordar a Heather Mills 😅
Check out Mary Lou by the Creative Force, Amazing!
How good would it have been if there had been footage of the live take they did for Yer Blues . They used a small room instead of the large studios.
Early version of Martha My Dear towards the end I think
I guess once John broke the 'no girlfriends in the studio' rule, Paul figured he could do the same.
It’s crazy John was with Cynthia and Paul was with Jane a few months ago in India. Now u see John with Yoko and Paul with Francie.
man I love tube tube
Beautiful song on the piano. at 7:23. WOW\
Sounds like Martha My Dear
That was probably Billy Preston playing piano
@@da_great_mogulYep... an earlier version of it perhaps!
@@MrStringpickerAbsolutely not!
McCartney was an amazing piano player. Certainly the best in that group
This is beautiful, hopefully one day this footage gets a treatment like the get back film got
The AI enhancement Makes it look terrible, but it also makes it watcheable and I appreciate your effort for making this possible 🙏🏻
This is history
Sensación de trabajo de oficina
I still have my Vintage Metal Tuner 440hz fork. From the 1960's Works great,,,,never needs batteries.
I love how Paul brought in his current girlfriend to counter act John bringing in yoko to sessions.
exactly!! 🤝
so i think the beatles broke up not bcause of Yoko
@@supono1I truly agree with you. She ended up not really being that good of a person tho…if what I read is accurate.😮
@@juliekeller5036 who? Francie Schwartz??
I was talking good ole Yoko Ono. I don’t dislike her…but I def agree with what u said
More!
Thats interesting to hear and see how its developed. They all cook with water.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It kind of sucks when we have to go back in history to see the Beatles that Yoko has to be in every video and image, from the late 60s to when, John died
John was happy with her, and this is the only thing that matters...
your not on His Side'' think about That
I actually enjoyed the Yoko bits the most (not counting the Indian musicians at the end) even though I hadn’t the slightest idea what she was saying. She was so cute back then.
It's not the only thing that matters. Do what you want on your own time, but in the studio she was a fly in the ointment that was a divisive force.
Schwartz and McCartney look like twins.
Lmao. It's funny because at first I thought that she might be his sister. But then I snapped that hey he only has a brother, Mike. But if he did have a sister I'm thinking that she may look a lot like Francie. 😅
@@waynej2608I think Paul's daughter, Mary, looked like Francie when she was younger.
John was great RIP
So Paul had his Yoko too. Good to know.
this is (as the english would say) brilliant! i had the short clip of PAUL playing 'BLACKBIRD' on vhs many moons ago but i had no idea there was more to it than that.
also as you watch this and tons of other footage from the last two years they definitely do not look like they hate each other's guts at all in fact i see very little animosity at all (this coming from someone who has been in bands).
i'd also love to know what GEORGE MARTIN was talking about when he reference 'TOM AND JERRY'. i wouldn't expect a posh englishman in the 60's being familiar with them at all.
How can you overdoub we without guitar tuners
Tom and Jerry cartoons were always played on UK tv going back decades.
In this scene, Yoko's voice is so soothing and gentle. Who knew??
She is from the japanese upper class
Wonder if the Gib jumbo is the sunburst John had taken the finish off, latter drew him and Yoko on the top, Paul's is the lefty D-28, yea yea yea.
George + Ringo are-were in America, thank you John
Master lesson on guitar tuning...
8 minutes of tuning acoustic guitars with john and paul
Upscale? Just let it be grainy I say. But thanks all the same. Wonderful to see and hear
I tune my guitar by ear as well. After awhile, you know how each string should sound.
E a digníssima onipresente o john permitia 😮😮😮
Francie Schwartz, in the white dress, looks stoned out of her mind ... and those dark-ringed eyes are not makeup!
