/Not Gonna Happen

I don't have a capo. But I love barre chords.

I can play HCTS without a capo, but it doesn't flow as well.

Thanks. Glad you like it.

There was a Beatles block today on the radio, they played Day in the Life, Sgt. Pepper's, With a Little Help From my Friends, and Good Day Sunshine, and I jammed to all of those on my set. Man I seriously rock the house to Sgt. Pepper's :D

Your set? Did you play a show recently or something? That would be very cool.

I know this sounds liek such a n00b question to ask, but how does Harrison get those effects on his guitar in Revolution?

If your talking about the intro guitar Im pretty sure that is John Lennon and he got the really distorted effect by plugging his guitar right into the soundboard.

Oh ok, thanks. I didn't know whether or not that was Lennon or Harrison.

You're talking about the fast version of Revolution, right?

There are two versions? (I'm a Beatles n00b, I apoligize.) I'm talking about the one with the roaring guitar intro, then the scream, and it just slows down to normal speed, and the lyrics start.

Ya, there is Revolution 9 which is like 8 mins long and made up of like just noises, then Revolution 1 which is slow but the same layout like the fast one.

The fast one you're talking about is just called Revolution, and it was released as a single. Revolution 1 and Revolution 9 are both on the White Album.

Oh, is Revolution 9 the one where he starts going "Number Nine, Number Nine" over and over again? What's with that? Isn't that the "Paul is dead" backwards message song?

I always thought I was a real Beatles fan, I have all there albums, the anthology thing, etc, but on the radio today, I heard a song that had to be the Beatles, but I don't know what it is, the words are like this, "If you want it, here it is, come and get it", so what is this song called?

Don't worry, that's not the Beatles. That's by a band named "Badfinger," and the song is called "Come and Get it." They were around about the same time as the Beatles, and do kind of sound like them, so it's understandable.

Well, Badfinger were discovered by Paul McCartney. And McCartney wrote Come and Get It. Also, Badfinger comes from "Badfinger Boogie" which was the working title to a Beatles song (forget which one).

Yeah Badfiner was also produced by Paul, at least for their first album, so the similarities is really close.

I saw the Magic Christian (with Peter Sellers and Ringo) and it was the first 'album' by Badfinger, and thought the music was really good. I've always wanted to invest more into them.

I had that avatar back in the day :D

Yeah, I'm not really familiar with Badfinger. I should be.

I believe that was the working title for I get by with a little help from my friends. Def Leppards new single No Matter What is a cover of the original which was by Bad Finger. I decided to check out bad finger once i read McCartney signed them and everything, and they werent anything to special. But No Matter What is a good song...but Def Leppard sounds like some crappy college band when they sing it..its not Def Leppard's style at all.

[QUOTE=sandman420]Its an amazing song. Come Together is about the Beatles each verse describes one of them.[/QUOTE]

That did occur to me at one point actually, but I ended up dismissing it.

I like the song No Matter What. I didn't know it was by Badfinger until my dad told me when I was listening to Def Leppard's version.

What has 9 arms and sucks... you guessed it Def Leoppard... heheh
anyway, just wondering, in I've Just Seen a Face is Ringo or Lennon singing

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]Your set? Did you play a show recently or something? That would be very cool.[/QUOTE]

My drumset ;)

I wish my set. If I was to do a classic rock set with a band, this is what it would be:

Sgt. Pepper's/Pepper's Reprise Medley
White Room
Flight of the Rat
Lucky Man
We're Not Gonna Take It (See Me Feel Me onward)

That would be an awesome set. I wish I could play drums/had a drumset. I'm pretty limited to string instruments, unfortunately.

[QUOTE=-=Led_Hed=-]What has 9 arms and sucks... you guessed it Def Leoppard... heheh

I'm 99% sure it's Paul actually.

Edit- I think Badfinger is really good. I've listened to their greatest hits, but don't own it. I saw it for just 5.99 though, which is really, really, cheap where I live, so I think I'll buy it next time I go to Sam Goody.

Wait, so Come Together is about the Beatles themselves? If so is this how it is:

[B]Ringo:[/B]
Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

[B]George:[/B]
He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

[B]John:[/B]
He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got [B]Ono[/B] sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me
[B]
Paul:[/B]
He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me

I don't see it. I'm not really sure how they are specifically about the membres of the band.
