Chicken and egg, I assume.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Dec 2020, 2:21pmGeorge is, in terms of outlook and personality, my Beatle (even tho John's and Paul's work were both better on the whole). But he seemed to spend three-quarters of his time as a Beatle hating being a Beatle. As much an overbearing turd Paul could be, I can only imagine how exhausting having this dark cloud in the studio must have been.Kory wrote: ↑16 Dec 2020, 2:13pmAs someone who's been in a band with a Paul, I have endless sympathy for him.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Dec 2020, 2:02pmFor a guy who found peace in Eastern religions, George was also permanently in snit mode.Kory wrote: ↑16 Dec 2020, 1:43pmHe played guitar on it, I believe, just not the solo. Paul "had an idea" he wanted to try out. I can't remember if George was pissed about it though. Probably.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Dec 2020, 1:38pm
Huh. George gets arguably his best song date to lead off their most challenging album, and he doesn't play guitar. There's always something to generate grievance.

ER is the least best of this batch of great songs, but I can’t argue against the tide of an option with the radical notion of adding strings to a pop song.

Re: Revolver - Side A - Round 4
Once again, proving that I don't understand a significant number of you all, "She Said She Said" is in the lead for eviction. I would have thought it was a slam dunk for the final two with "I'm Only Sleeping," but people clearly hate rock music a whole lot, so there you go.
I blame WWK for make me so dispirited so close to Christmas.

She Said is my favourite of what's left. I still miss Norwegian Wood.
