The Beatles - Complete Hey Jude Recording Sessions (July 30, 1968 at EMI Studios)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ต.ค. 2021
- This is my reconstruction of all that was filmed at The Beatles’ recording session for Hey Jude at EMI / Abbey Road Studios. I have taken all the clips released on HMC’s disc and properly sequenced and synced them. It is worth noting that I have had to use audio from other takes for some clips, due to a lack of availability for most outtakes. In addition, there are some clips where audio cuts off abruptly, which is due to only a portion being released, and quickly edited to something else in the original Experiment in TV special. I have also fixed the significant green tint on many of the clips. Enjoy!

Was busted up in Nam in 68' - came back to the states and was recuperating in St. Albans Naval Hospital in Queens NY - when this song come on the radio. I started to sing along with my voice ringing down the ward hall - in few minutes the whole wing of the hospital was singing along - the head nurse come in to shut us up - BIG MISTAKE - we kept on singing louder and louder - for about a week this song came on the radio about the same time each morning - really raised the spirits of the wounded - something that was really needed - this song has a special place in my heart today almost 45 yrs later!
Welcome home!
I was 8 years old and remember the body counts on TV every night. Thank you for your service at a time when it wasn't really appreciated. All we need is LOVE!
WOW what a story!
The power of the Beatles knows no bounds 🙏
Its the greatest song ever made
the more we see of 66-69 Beatles the more we understand what a creative monster Paul McCartney was. its actually baffling how you have him and John Lennon in the same band, being from the same area and the same age. And whilst John Lennon was seemingly quite a bit lazier and happy to just chill and enjoy his life, McCartney must have understood that he had to make the most of his youth and energy and get as many songs and projects down before age tamed the fire. Seeing as Georgie Harrison also came up with some great tracks is the conclusion we come to that talent for creativity isn’t born but earned? A skill to be honed and worked at. Otherwise how else can you explain how all this talent came together in one group in one moment in history.
McCartney most certainly had that talent from birth! and he was the most relentless.
I think the overall explanation is that John and Paul made each other into geniuses. They were born to be together. There was such an incredible connection, so much love. We saw it in Get Back. It's not sexual. It's something at a higher level. They referred to their songs as "the children". It's a love story that produced over 200 children, it exploded into music that transcendds everything, it changed the world. The Beatles breakup was really the Lennon/McCartney breakup. The world still hasn't healed from it.
Pete Best could write some solid music as well. The original Beatles must have been something amazing to see. Ringo was super talented too but you could tell he did not feel like it was his band. Just the name alone is great. A musical play on words while sticking to an insect which was so popular back then. You had to see that name for the first time and just knew you were about to see and hear magic.
@@robertschumann7737 when time travel was invented, the first place I went was the Cavern Club in late 1962, they were amazing! ;)
Lol what? John's songs were way more creative than Paul's. Much deeper, more meaningful, all whilst he had less musical knowledge. Paul never write anything like a day in the life, or happiness is a warm gun. John's first solo album is better than anything paul done solo. Even in the early days, all the best songs were written mainly by John. Paul had to work hard to write good songs, to Lennon, they came without effort.
@@bendagostino2217 Paul co wrote Day in the Life. His album Ra,m is now considered a masterpiece. Paul was the avant garde, experimental one. John's solo albums were not very inventive.
Paul's voice when he was in his prime is just un-f&*kin believable. So smooth and easy and just so so fine. Wow.
Paul’s voice NOW is just UN-F&*KIN’’ believable!!!!! I saw him in 2021 at Dodger Stadium, and he ran around that stage like a TEENAGER!
Smooth also brutal at the same time!!
i think mccartney was the best singer in music!
@@edryba4867 i saw him at the capital centre in '76. Sunday May 16 ( a life-long personal holiday)
my 1st concert
@@fairmounthotelhotel2711 You could well be right. There was never a voice like his before or since. And it's my belief (as a Voice Actor myself), he often used HIS Voice Acting talent in many ways on many of his vocals. But when I purchased my Trident 32x8x2 console for my own studio, the literature that came with it said that the FINAL version of the song was recorded at Trident Studio, in London's West End, The Beatles often recorded there when they couldn't get "their" usual room at Abbey Road. Also, among many other bands, The Rolling Stones recorded at Trident. "You Can't Always Get What You Want" is one example. The kids' choir on that recording came from the school next door to Trident!
I think I was 9 y.o. when Hey Jude was released. I know it was summer and we kids were all playing around the neighborhood. I remember when we first heard this song coming from some teenager’s radio, we all just stopped what we were doing and just listened. It was weird, but it’s true. It was like some magic spell hit us.
My mother sang this song while I was sitting on her lap. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was born in 69, but in Grade 5 our Music teacher was a major Vancouver Island hippie. We spent that whole year singing Beatle songs. All the hits. Opened up so much after that. Best time of my life and my favorite class ever. That was my introduction to the Beatles.
Learned the details of how the Beatles worked together. I like the way Paul and John once they had an idea how a song should be rarely listened to anyone but each other. This isn’t a dis on George and Ringo they are both fabulous, but when the two of them were together it was magic.
How old are u now?
I was -39 years old but I think it’s one of the timeless songs
My dad first heard this song when he was 15, it was 1969 and we live in Indonesia. But at the time, he lives in a village in northern part of the Island of Sumatra. He said he was at my grandfather small rice fields to do some works (that's how many Indonesian do in 1960s). Their only family entertainment was a small radio, no smartphones or even television, just radio. He said it was on that afternoon he heard Hey Jude for the first time, and he was mesmerized by the soothing melody and somehow uplifting mood from the music, and he didn't even understand a single word on that songs because he didn't understand or speak English. Although years from that moment he start learning and understand English, but he still in awed how Hey Jude inspired him to do better in life. I thanked The Beatles and Sir Paul for this everlasting song
I'm happy for your father, he has good taste, Hey Jude is such a great song that your father did not even understand English at the time and he still loved the song. That's what Beatles music can do to you!!
Thanks for sharing that great family story
I just needed to read it, make my day better :D
Great family memory
Beautiful story, truly. Thanks for sharing.
17:07, George Martin tells Paul over the talkback that "there was some great moments of singing in that, Paul, but it wasn't the one." By even many professional musician's standards, Paul had just laid down a banger of a track, but Martin just knew he could get more out of him. Such a cool moment, to me.
George and Paul made sure those LPs came out right
IMO that captures the biggest difference between Beatles and solo work. No one there to tell them it's good but they could do better. Personal opinion but all their solo works seem incomplete compared to the Beatles.
@@jetsamperes5762 Agreed
@@jetsamperes5762 I agree. Their solo work lacks the “polish” of the group albums.
@@notbraindead7298was für ein Schwachsinn
I love how Paul hits the first note at 0:13 perfectly but then briefly glides through his range to then go back and hit the note perfectly again. A master at work…
Ha! I can do that too 😋
I think he's finding the right note. It's like in Yesterday, both are in F chord from the start and there's a kinda debate or issue if "Yesterday" was flat at first something like that
That's what singers do. You have to remember a note later and sing it again.
@@tutortle1820 he's often flat, as is also sinatra. doesn't matter for pop. just get the tone, feeling and emotion across. which of course they both do fantastically.
Simply amazing control.
Here I am 72 years old and still wearing my Beatles tshirts cause they were magic the four of them together ❤
@Laney Kane, rightly so. Their music was, is and always will be part of most people's lives.
Que lindos recuerdos tienes Dichoso que vivistes esa generaci9n Beatles
Donˋt forget the Stones - they were the other Side of the Medal - both shining and none better or worse than the other !! The eternal competition between both has dissolved into admiration for both.
@@Inglese001 AMEN 🙏!!!
@laneykane. Rock on Beatles Fan's!! I'm 67 and still wear mine (well some of them! I'm built more on top than I was in elementary school!! Lol.) All those shirts 👕 I saved and I'm glad I did cuz you can make amazing quilts out of special T-shirts!!😁😁
-ringo: "i keep getting my trousers caught on the pedal"
-john: "then take 'em off !"
That voice. That talent. That skill. I’ve been in awe all of my life.
exactly my thoughts
What can you say?? The guy is just a legend.
bob dylan also thinks so
Me too mate 👍
Of course but in my case, I feel the same with John Lennon and Harrison.
The Beatles only played music in 10 years, but they will influence music in the world for 10 centuries ahead.
We know that, Genius
Correct👍😊😊
You are right not only 10century's but till the end of this ERA
And wrote just about every song between mid-1963 and mid-1969. So that's only six years.
setuju sama mas bram
That first take Paul sounds perfect. That’s the most pure and honest I’ve heard him sound
John has an infectious smile. We were blessed to grow up during the ROCK 'N ROLL era.
Yes we were. No other band ever made me feel, in my heart and soul, the way the Beatles did. And still do.
Yes. It's kinda sad this song is about him walking out on his son Julian though. Wonder how Paul got John to go along with it
Lovely to see Ringo listening to Paul singing and figuring out what was needed, he isnt playing …he is listening and thinking, not a side of him he allows out much, but that is what is SO GOOD about this film…..those of us who grew into people as the Beatles became more and more amazing know every nuance of their voice and humour but this is a window into genius
The Beatles were so interconnected as if they were raised by the same mother. They had an ear for each other, and Ringo pieced the three singers with his drums nicely. I believe their fame was due to how Ringo managed their songs with his drums.
No Beatles without Ringo!
And they knew it .
Alice 73 (Norway)
Beatles for me since I was 13 in 1963.
Paul and John with their lyric and music still make me smile and feel good inside.
As a kid when The Beatles were active, this is great to see. It was a magical time to be alive. The greatest band in history bar none, they still make you happy sixty years later.
I remember like yesterday seeing the Beatles preform this song on the Dick Cavet Show via prerecorded video. I feel lucky to have lived through the best years of rock and roll.
Yep they've kept me toe tapping since I was about ten years old.
LONGTIME !!
my First new album Magical Mystery Tour sears had also a mono version
i picked stereo . w book...? $3.30 approx prob mono today: priceless
@Elliot Mess- dont all kids generally think its the best time to be alive. Im older like you so not judging. Peace.
@@Applecompuser I have no idea what kids think as I only know what I thought at the time. If you’re young good luck with your future as you’re going to need it. 😂
Ringo does some sweet stuff on here. I'm a bass player, and I think he provides the exact feel that makes bass playing fun. he's a sly genius.
Ringo is a great drummer, and don't let any fool tell you otherwise!He makes a great entrance in the second verse after"THEN YOU CAN START TO MAKE IT BETTER."🥁
I love Ringos drumming. He is not even close to being a musical genius though.
His ability to always keep the tempo perfectly is awesome too
@@rman52a22
@@rman52i agree lol
I love the interaction between Paul and John. Gives me warm chills
They are a perfect pair and probably didn't know it back then. I absolutely love them together!
Warm chills exactly......To me it feels like if you haven't seen someone that you care about in a long long time.
L
Watch the Get Back documentary/series, there is more of that feeling.
The good than can us see John and George in vídeo so amazing.😔

Now, that's what I call songwriting skills! Hey Jude, Yesterday, Let It Be - all these tunes will remain in human kind's memory for centuries.
Long and Winding Road
Here there and everywhere, for no one, Martha my dear
He literally has like 25 all time contenders for best song ever and about 100 just great songs
He was a genius
more than those 3. The Beatles were masters. Most of their songs would be enough to propel a band to fame, and they have dozens of masterpieces.
We like to say peoplekind now, it's more inclusive 😉😉
He just breathes; and the tunes flow out like magic
It's amazing how perfect they sound just playing live off the floor. It makes you realize how authentic and unaltered their recordings were. Paul's vocals sound better in one take than most modern vocalists do after countless takes pieced together and digitally corrected.
What a voice, never heard it like this before, pure genius
Hard to believe this was FIFTY THREE YEARS AGO . Paul had it all as a composer,bass player,guitar player,piano player,and a vocal range that has to be close to four octaves,and an ear for harmonies that is incredible .
Without that range he would not have had the latitude to write such unbelievable melodies .
53 years…why is that so hard to grasp?
@@cbennett196631 yea I’m thinking the same thing. Why do you think everyone still love, “The Beatles.”
@@cbennett196631 Probably referring to to how fast times flies. You apparently are young and maybe don’t realize how fast your life will pass.
@@jessetwo1 because good music never dies.
@@martdod When my two daughters now, 29 and 27 first began to notice music. I didn’t want them to be influenced only
by the music of the day around 2002. I told them if they were going to get into music they should start with the best! We listen to every single, all the albums, and watched all the movies. They listen to other music just as we did but their first love is still, “The Beatles”.
Just as it is mine 58 years after I first her them.
Masters at work. A thousand years from now someone somewhere will be appreciating their artistry.
Ringo never gets the credit he deserves. He's left handed, playing right handed drums. He's brilliant and was really respected by other muscians.
There are some songs so perfect they sound like they must have always existed, even before someone wrote them; they transcend time. This is one of those songs.
How is it possible to have such a trademark sound ? Being a great musician isn't about the number of notes you can play per minutes, or complicated jazz chords you can deliver, it's just about some things you just can't explain. Some music intellectuals should put their ego in their pockets by listening to this.
They became great because they all paid their dues with a grueling schedule in Germany.
@@nickv4073 Yes and the sheer luck of those talents growing up in the same town.Pete Best was there all those long hours in Hamburg and never evolved.
@@PC4USE1 He didn't do so bad in the end. The release of "Anthology" in 1995 brought him royalties said to have made him a millionaire.
Well Said!
@@PC4USE1 Don’t think he was a particularly good egg. George Martin luckily spotted this early doors 👍🏻
There couldn’t have been a more perfect producer for The Beatles than George Martin.
Amen.
He deserved a higher honor than just a producer. He contributed way too much musically.
Especially, with regards to his orchestral magic.
He was a Beatle.
@@cherbutler85 He was the 5th Beatle, if anyone was.
If not for his suggestion that the Beatles speed up "Please Please Me" we may never have had Beatlemania.
Agreed, but i think Jeff Lynne is a candidat too
This song is a masterpiece ....and the phrasing of Paul's singing, is so musical ! Drum fills wonderful..feel is great.
agree shame about the "it does go on a bit" ending but far out the simple chords and heart-tugging melody wow
This song is a masterpiece! My favorite song on Earth since I was 9. This song has saved my life more than once. Best song ever written.
Glad you approve.It's too bad you weren't there to coach them.😎
End na na na nas go on too long, longer than actual song.
Hilarious 😂
It's not a main part, but how John constantly plays perfect up strokes quietly on the guitar to compliment Paul's downs on the piano, is masterful as well. Talk about supporting the song!
LOL @ downstrokes on a piano.
How are y’all gonna disrespect Paul’s left thumb like that? Paul’s left thumb is right there with John doing upstrokes
I was thinking the same thing. The acoustic guitar is mixed lower in the final version, but here it's a bit more prominent and it gives the song a bit of chug. It sounds like a Gibson--woody and full--but it's hard to tell because there's no shot of it from the front.
@@thefonzkisshe said downs. I know exactly what he means
Wonderful how paul manage emotions through his voice.
The way he could just carry a tune with his voice alone was amazing. Listen and examine his work. The man was a TRUE musical genius. His talent was beyond any comparison and the fact that him and John found each other at such a young age was MORE than mere coincidence. THAT was fate. Did you know that on the day they met, July 6, 1957, that Liverpool saw it's first thunderstorm in almost two decades? LOL..I'm not going THAT far....but still.
Paul is my favorite singer of all time, of course I love John also. I’m so grateful and thankful those boys found each other!
And by coincidence, July 6, 1957 is my birth date. What a gift. I'm still enjoying it 66+ years later.
The greatest band of all time. Still a fan of The Fab Four since 1963 until 4ever.👍👍🙏🙏
Only 39 myself. They were just magic. One of a kind. I cannot wait to sit down over Christmas and watch the entire documentary. I love the likes of Queen, Oasis, Michael Jackson, Kings Of Leon, Bee Gees, Green Day, Foo Fighters, U2 etc etc etc.....but these guys were just incredible. Superstars ❣
It's just mind boggling the music they put out so many decades ago that still stands well today. His singing in this version is amazing!!!
Su canto en Oh! Darling es increíble.
It’s just mind boggling how the talent of these four lads in just so unsurpassed of anything today. It’s like an alternate universe. It’s just not fair. More talent in their pinkies then all of the musicians of today combined
At least you acknowledge there were four of them. That’s more than a lot of fucking idiots on here are doing.
Your right, the Beatles were extremely talented. But, there’s no need to take a swipe at todays music. Music today is as good as it’s ever been. I’m 40 and still listen to ‘current music’ and there’s some great stuff out there.
I can go back to the nineteen sixties in my head because I lived through it . All that magic every day every month not knowing what they would do next. And they delivered every time. Awesome.
Every time. I just remember never being disappointed. Every penny spent on their records was worth it, because they were THAT good.
It was a pleasure to hear this version for the first time. From a Beatles fan since 1964.
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like The Beatles. Great band from the new generation
Great footage! Watching the Beatles is like watching magic. Greatest band to ever walk this planet.
The Beatles make me happy, make me feel alive. Thank You Beatles for being there throughout my life.
This is, in my humble opinion, the greatest song ever. Till today it is heard in sports stadia from India, South Africa to Japan.
Right on.
Nah Never.Bridge Over Troubled Water knocks this sideways
@@alfching2499 Gotta put Let it Be up there too. There was about a five year period where MACCA was on fire.
Obviously you've never heard of Justin Beiber ha ha
Stadia?!?
That's some seriously rare recording! Im always fascinated how people get their hands on this stuff!?!?
Love the piano being used as the lead instrument from 5:32 to 5:52! Some wonderful bluesy licks from Paul!
This is the melody of Sympathy for the devil I think. It sounds like it.
jealous of all of you who witnessed this in real time and when it was released to the world. magical and nothing will ever be like it now
14:52
Ringo: I keep gettin' me trousers caught on the pedal...
John: Take em off
Ringo: Smiles
Classic.
That was the drawback to wearing bell bottom pants. Used to happen to me too back in the day.
Nice tie by the way
Watching history in the making, just outstanding talent on show.
Just think about the joy and pleasure this music has given to people all over our world. We may all be different in so many ways but what we have in common is the love for those Beatles.
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like The Beatles. Great band from the new generation
Staggering talented songwriting. I can't think of anything better to say.
I'm lucky enough that I was born and witnessed the best band ever- I love everything about The Beatles!!!
So great it almost hurts to see the brilliance.
I think one of the most amazing things about the Beatles was that they kept experimenting and producing amazing music no matter what they tried. So many artists have a good album or two at best and then they're done. The Beatles understood melody and chord progression better than anyone.
Paul was a musical genius definitely what he done for the Beatles is insane! John knew it and so did George but he was jealous and bitter even though Paul made him rich
@@MrThedonhead I heard somewhere that Paul could play about 100 instruments. Whatever the number is , it's amazing. Isn't it true that Paul played the drums on Helter Skelter or some other White Album song ? I bet there are very few musicians who could fill in for someone else in their band .
As a PERFECT pocket drummer, Ringo was exactly what the Beatles needed. I think I remember Paul saying they didn't even notice Ringo, he was just there, in a perfect way. I think in the 70's Ringo was hugely underrated because he never had the need to stand out in the song. He absolutely hated drum solos; the boys had to beg him to do it in songs like "Birthday".
The fact that they can record the whole song including practice in 18 minutes is amazing!
@jean-luc paradis You mean they didn't have 5 or 6 cameras rolling all at once , and they weren't switching them live ? :)
@@robertbrown8362 Pehaps they could do that yesterday, but you never know about tomorrow. Good day. Dr Robert

@@johncooksey79 i got it.
Paul sounds amazing along with his mates playing. They still sounds great all these years later. No doubt the best band ever and also great on there own.
THIS IS A TREASURE , THE BEATLES , SINGING , PLAYING , JOKING AND TAKING IT SERIOUSLY ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
GEORGE MARTIN AND
GEOFF EMERICK LISTENING , I LOVE THIS
VIDEO EVERYONE AT THEIR BEST . AMAZING.
Compared to the Get Back movie, which was made about half a year later, Paul becomes so incredibly young here - what a difference a full beard makes! :-)
I wish they would release this video fully restored with all the conversations!
Imagine, being a producer or engineer and your artist comes with this performance……I produce music and this sends shiver up my spines…..goosebumps……tears of appreciation…..I am welling up again after listening to this song for 45 years….
You were there don't ya golfo
Legends at work! Thank you Beatles for all of your awesome music!
No Autotune, no dropins, no quantising - this shows what bloody great singer Paul is.

@@andrewmarcellis2007 Thank you, I’ll have a listen! - cheers, Dean
The thing too is music like this brings people together.... That's a rare and magical quality. So few can do that.
They’re musicianship improved so fast! By then they were producing real memorable works. Paul’s voice is in fine form here, not to mention his piano playing. They were and still are so many of our heroes, our touch points in important memories, the background sound weaving through our growing years.
Love how Paul looks at his teammates while talking to them ! He's so involved, probably so loveable and so convincing...
Love this legendary band !
Actually it was a fact that Paul told George to take down his fills on the song. George was a little annoyed, but Paul was right....
@@Martin-pt5on yeah he suggested shadowing the vocal melody with the guitar.
My parents had never been that crazy about The Beatles. “Hey Jude” changed all of that. We watched the video on “The Smothers Brothers” and were all blown away. My father brought home the single the next day.
Great to see the king at work I’m still gutted they split up 50 years on !! What a band never be beaten
THE KING.... couldn't agree more my friend !
Always loved Lennon’s rhythm guitar
Oh was John there too? I thought by all of the comments on here Paul was the only one doing anything? Geez!!
What else to say about that….outstanding Interpretation, maybe one of the most iconic songs in the modern times….I am glad just to be in this world at same time that those genius guys. Even a simple record session is already a state of art version.
When the Beatles composed this beautiful song, I was 22 years old and I first met the Beatles accidentally, when I listened to Radio Luxembourg as a 16-17 year old - before that I used listen to Elvis Presley, Shadows, Cliff Richard, Petula Clark etc.
The other songs didn't interest me - they seemed all musically uninteresting. Suddenly I heard something completely new, a completely different music, which I found beautiful. I didn't understand the fast-talking moderator, so I watched him say a name repeatedly for this music, and after many attempts, I distinguished that the band was called the Beatles. I was proud to have discovered them for myself.
Now that I'm 75, I'm still listening to them and playing guitar again after a 45-year hiatus, thanks to my daughter, who wanted me to sing Hey Jude at her wedding in september 2020.
Now I enjoy their music just like when I was young and they were at the peak of their era. So far no band had surpassed them.
What a nice story :-)
thank you for the rare video of the 4 most gifted and influential icons in modern times.
I could watch these old video's (and listen to the lost tapes) etc until forever. They never bore you do they? Genius band...
It's interesting how long the lines "She has found you / now go and get her" were in there before being changed to "You have found her / now go and get her" considering how much more natural and rational the second version reads. It just goes to show it's not done until it's done. The painter Pierre Bonnard used to carry a small paint kit and would touch up his works even as they hung in galleries and museums.

I'm not a big singalong type, but this song is just striking. It starts off almost like a lullaby, and then it just morphs into some gospel tune. I was born well after this song came out, and everyone and their cousin tried to replicate it. I can't imagine what it was like to suddenly hear something sounding like this for the first time tho....
Just another reason why music was so much better in the 60's than it is today,what with that rap crap and that auto tuned garbage!
@@richardnicholson5768 Yup! I prefer calling it (C)rap though...nothing but tribal chants with a jungle beat...(OH, Heavens, did I just say that?)
My mom was 13 when “Hey Jude” came out and she said there was nothing else like it. People worldwide were obsessed-it was such a unique, beautiful, and uplifting song.
Marianne Faithfull tells the story where she saw Paul scurrying around at a party and he had something behind his back. She said “Hey Paulie what do you have there?!” and it was a press of Hey Jude before it was officially released. She said they all made him play the record over and over all night long, they loved it so much.
It's still amazing to me one of the writers/performers of one of the greatest bands ever is still with us today and still making music. We should cherish this fact and really appreciate it because he may not be with us for much longer (although it seems like he's got another 20 years left in him!).
The final, released version of Paul's singing is so ingrained into my memory, that even the slightest difference in singing, as in these out-takes, is glaringly obvious.
This song would have to be amongst the greatest of Beatles songs.
From the very beginning, "Hey Jude...." it makes you want to listen.
Even when the lyrics are different, you know. "She has found you, now go and get her" didn't make the final cut.
So true. 😂😂
im same any deviation from what I know as the final take just dosent sit right with me,it bugs me and i arent sure why ..how i know them is when theyre right lol
Macca is a musical GENIUS,as is Lennon.This song achieves greatness the moment Paul
sings the third better, better,better AHHH!Utter MAGNIFICENCE!❤️
Man, would love to hear the original audio on this footage. 2:55 could be the infamous conversation where Paul told George he didn't want him playing on the track.
Really felt for George on this one. He tried to contribute, but Paul already had the arrangement in his head. You can’t really argue with the end result - an absolute masterpiece that deserves all the success and accolades that followed. George really retreats from the recording, as he’s seen mostly in the control room. Aside from his backing vocals, you can barely hear any contributions from George on this song. They probably always interacted like this, but surely it was adding to tensions at this point, certainly with George.
At 18’02, what a wonderful vocal demonstration from Paul 😃
He does what he wants with his amazing voice😉
Talent in its most pure form. God bless the Beatles.
Gorgeous vocals and vibrato in his voice.
a very warm voice
The Beatles recorded the master track for "Hey Jude" at Trident Studios, St Anne's Court in Soho, London. Trident also gained a reputation for the sound of its piano, which can be heard on the Beatles' "Hey Jude", Elton John's "Your Song", Carly Simon's "The Right Thing To Do", Queen's "Killer Queen" and many other tracks.
I believe that today Trident largely records voice-over work for adverts.
This is really interesting... Cheers.
Universal Audio has emulated the Trident mixing console so it's available as a plug-in. Yeah, the piano sounds really good through it.
You can't be genius composers and musicians like the best band there ever was the Beatles
Indeed, and let's not forget Life On Mars?
Brilliant! Really began to understand how Jude finally came together....loved Ringo's drumming!
John loved watching Paul singing ! Love Mr. beat in those drums ⭐️⭐️💫
They're the best!
I always feel warm seeing John and Paul interact positively as they do here.
They knew they were onto something special.
How on earth did you manage to get this gem!!?? Thank, my dear Fabs, for all you gave during your lifetime and even after the break-up. Thanks to AB for sharing this.
Amazing footage of the greatest band of all time
What a genius he is when it comes to create good music. Furthermore his voice is fabulous and so his piano play.
Some guys have all the luck ... as Rod Steward said ;-)
This version should be released, it’s so natural and honest, love it 😍
His voice is just magical. No cover version can even come close to the original, it’s perfect. One of the most iconic songs ever recorded and one of the most inspiring and uplifting as well.
Such a technically perfect and beautiful warm vocal performance by Paul. Such a genius talent. The piano part also is very present in this version and the drums have this great feeling to it. Hear the electric guitar also very good during the na na na section, especially in the first take.
i’ve been blessed with stumbling across this video
I really love this footages. This is my favorite band since I was 11. I’m 28 now. This really warms my heart whenever I feel down.
March 1968 I bought the single, Hey Jude and there was an old record player in a small bar in the square, where the kids could get together and take their records to play. I remember one afternoon when we ran Hey Jude 88 times. It wasn't until months later that I discovered that I had a B-side on the disc. And only years, decades later, I discovered that, without knowing it, I had lived a magical time that I would never have in my life. Hey Jude is ecstatic.
Came out in August '68
I was eight years old when I saw them on the Ed Sullivan Show with my three older brothers. The world changed overnight. I still listen and feel the magic these many years later.
Been a Beatles fan since 1835 I’m now 26 and still coming back for more
Hold on😂
Paul just had the song 100% done, he just presented it to the group. That’s genius god level
They were and always be absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!
You mean there were others besides Paul? Will wonders never cease!
Paul: I'll change that line later
John: You won't, you know
I love Paul but I wish I had a pound for every time I’ve heard him tell that story.
@@pavement422 Paul deserves to tell the story, at least he wrote a song for Julian. What did John do?
@@MrChopsticktech I know where you’re coming from, but John wrote a song for Julian as well: Good Night
That's the best line in the song-g.
@@MrChopsticktech The only thing Paul done was Yesterday
I will always love this song. I was lucky enough to see Paul sing this in concert back in the 80s. The entire stadium was lit up with people holding candles or lighters, and EVERYONE was singing along. It was magical.
Just recording the greatest pop single ever recorded in human history. Nothing much to see here. ;-)
Wow. Amazing.
Love the moment of the two Georges having a conversation about music theory.
It's incredible to see the changes made to the lyrics, and as Paul always tests himself to hit the perfect note, he's simply incredible (as are his compositions)
Great work, Sir Paul McCartney!
Your intention to comfort Julian in his trying times proved the worth. . .
What a lovely tune! 👍👍
Paul at 15:59 ... he has about 1000 different singing voices ... amazing
That’s because he was nuts in a positive way many greats are multiple personalities I should only know. Saw him live on my 50th b-day ..bucket list event for me. This old cat wore me out after Like 3 hours of songs. Was not just a concert but a life event I will remember like the time I got out of a manhole and George Clooney walked in front of me. Let it be known from Hesse forth..Paul was actually the true leader of this group from its beginning to its end. He was the one who made the contact with John, he was already friends with George and decided to bring him into the group then George got Ringo in. Paul’s song writing keep them going after 1967, heck John wanted to leave in 1965. Yep the Beatle are part of humanities history.
The majic flows. The world knows in the heart the best Group the universe will ever hear.
