Things were changing | The Story of Revolver by The Beatles | Classic Albums Review

1966 was a complicated year in the beatles' career, John Lennon's comments about Jesuschrist affected the band's image considerably, incidental situations in their tours became more and more frequent, from the mistreatment in the Philippines to the protests in japan to stop them
performing at the Budokan, the press conferences were more and more tense, the band's relationship was wearing out, and they gave the impression of being distant, John, George and Ringo were already married men and McCartney was moving away from family life to get involved in movements that were in London in those years, as the months went by the composition evenings between Lennon and McCartney were less frequent, they all started to work on their own, to have alternate projects, live, things were not looking good, they received threats in every city, and they would experience their last american tour a few months later, hand in hand with their interest in studio
work, experimentation and artistic evolution as their escape route, and already with the basis of an album as an artistic piece in rubber soul, Revolver represented a radical change in the rules of the game.

I feel like ‘And your bird can sing’ was massively misrepresented here. It’s an amazing song.

[robbedontuesday]

I must be very dumb because "And your bird can sing" seems like a master piece to me.

[symbiosisai]

The fact that they went from A Hard Days Night to Revolver in just 2 years is why they still remain the greatest recording artists of all time

[imkluu]

In my opinion, Revolver is one of the best rock albums ever made.

[colinpumpernickel]

And Your Bird Can Sing is a fantastic song. It was very impressive using a double guitar part in harmony. This was something Thin Lizzy and others would emulate and popularise. The Beatles were the first. So there.

I've heard people say Rubber Soul and Revolver could be a double album. I can see that if referring to a turning point in their career, but the two albums are completely different sounding. Rubber Soul more acoustic and folk sounding, and Revolver very electric and bright. Rubber Soul sounds more like a double album with Help! to me. Those two have lots of similarities, only Rubber Soul more complex.
Revolver moved the Beatles into their experimental period (drugs and studio) that concluded throughout 1967, and fits better with Sgt. Pepper and Magical Mystery Tour.

I listened to Revolver yesterday. The album never grow old. Its always fresh.

[tiphmiller_sacred_ink]

No way !! And your bird can sing is the best ! Love that song man …the harmonies, the guitar, the upbeat happiness of it ! It’s a sublime track !

[pbasswil]

Shocked to hear him slagging off And Your Bird Can Sing; always been a fav of mine – it's got a great edgy vibe, and awesome guitar lines. And high harmonies!

[matthewcooper]

One of the greatest albums they ever did, it really had everything you would want.

[michaelulbricht]

Tomorrow Never Knows was likely the most advanced song of theirs, but was the first song they recorded for Revolver!

[chrismurphy]

Abbey Road & Revolver my favourite Beatles Albums, most of their albums are great...what a massive talented group they were

[jThe_Phantom]

These guys met in the exact time and place, and bonded together in a band that called "The Beatles" whose aura is still the talk of the planet, and perhaps for generations to come.

[flipflopmcgurt]

50+ years later and they’re still making history. The jury is out: greatest band ever

[jerrymcdaniel]

The Greatest Album of all time. So many different types of songs and yet it is cohesive.

[ustheserfs]

tomorrow never knows some 55 years after its introduction to the world remains the hallmark of studio ingenuity and innovation for listeners and artists alike.

[rundoetx]

I remember looking forward to the next Beatles album and single. When Rubber Soul cane out, my mind was blown away. I was hearing things that I had never heard before. Music like no other artists of the time. They continued to evolve and so did my young mind. They never dissapointed. Thank you John, Paul, George, and Ringo, and thank you for posting this cool little retrospective video.

[dragongeraldb]

This is the first album that went all the way to experimental and musical maturity, we get the final form.

[collinkenney]

I think she said she said is one of ringos best works. It shows his versatility while also playing to the song. Incredible
