This song was recorded during the Sgt. Pepper studio sessions, the music from which, biographer Bill Harry notes, was "so intricate, complex and innovative that it staggered other artists who had been seeking to outdo the Beatles" (Source: Harry, Bill (2000), The Beatles Encyclopedia. Virgin Publishing. ISBN 978-0-7535-0481-9, p. 970.). One such artist, Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson, whose own recent efforts had involved "revolutionary stacked voices, ornate instrumentation and state-of-the-art multi-tracking", abandoned all attempts to compete on hearing this song. (Source: BBC News Magazine (2004), Faces of the week: Brian Wilson [1]) Beginning after verse two has "seem[ed] to plunge the song to a deeper level of consciousness", the sample presents the second half of verse three where John Lennon's continuing vocal, accompanied by "the richer, darker hues of George Martin's trumpets and cellos", can be heard, "paced by the anxious palpitations of a backward cymbal track". (Source: Gould, Jonathan (2008), Can't Buy Me Love: The Beatles, Britain and America. Piatkus. ISBN 978-0-7499-2988-6, p. 383.) Words alone are inadequate to describe the song, and presenting the sound of this song alongside earlier and later ones is necessary for a complete understanding of its nature and its contrast with material from other periods, and hence of the way the band's music evolved during their career. |
