The Beatles - ‘Revolver' Special Edition [Review + Top 10 Moments]

[@jaime96]

Knowing John wrote Yellow Submarine was a revelation for me, and hearing him sing it was mindblowing too.

[@scottandrewbrass]

Almost. Yellow Submarine was 2 separate songs combined. John's verse melody and Paul 's chorus.

[@watts111]

@@scottandrewbrass And now, Paul claims to have "written [the song] with which Ringo has been wowing crowds with for decades." Carnival Of Gaslight...

[@chrisclarke4665]

Yellow Submarine was more Paul than John. John just did the opening line. His original intention was to make it a sad escapist song which would not be in anyway the same song. Donovan had more contribution to writing the song than John did.

[@ElliotRobertsVideos]

Slight correction: The Mono Mix has no de-mixing applied to it. It’s just a straight cut from the master tapes. Oh, and George wasn't writing about government corruption, more just that he was annoyed about the high tax rate (I got a little ahead of myself there).

[@farmercraig6080]

Yeah the mono is very quiet compared to the new mixes.

[@LanceHall]

Actually a new mono mix would have made the full set even more desirable. They could have made a mono mix with the clarity of the stereo mix. The mono mix was already digitized and new LPs pressed in 2009.

[@MarbleThumbs]

@@LanceHall I get where you're coming from, but mono fans are really happy about this, not to mention that this new mono pressing has been an all analogue process.

[@craigphillips6308]

And in my humble opinion, the mono mix is still the best, most balanced sounding mix. It is perfection.

[@jedikiah1541]

The original mono version is still the best.

[@WilG082]

I was so taken aback by the yellow submarine demo that I got emotional. I never knew this existed until this set. Absolutely beautiful

[@adolfilosofoprofesordefilo6976]

No doubt one of the gems. And unexpected since I cannot remember any scholar saying John started this song.

[@annakermode6646]

So did I! I heard it with no preparation and the melancholic sweet demo voice coming through just grabbed me by the heartstrings…..

[@loosilu]

It's amazing that John wrote this beautiful, sad song about a lonely little boy, then with Paul they made it into a happy song about living together with your friends forever.

Always thought She Said She Said was some of the Beatles most sublime guitar work, and for 45 years I've been trying to sort out which guitar did what on this song and now I can hear it clearly! Also I love the very trippy (and appropriate) mix of Tomorrow Never Knows. I've been so psyched for today, I mean in High School I even wrote a poem about how much I love this album.

[@user-ys9fg4ol9s]

Ringos Drums on She Said, She Said... blew this 15 kid away when he first started playing The Drums. Ringos Fills on She Said, She Said" shows how much Ringo was be EXTRA creative in 1966.. I point to Revolver as being Ringos breakout performance as a Beatle. Then of course , there's take #5 on Rain. and since we know that Rain was actually slowed DOWN, I am SO happy that this has been included! Ringo nails it on Rain and it is his BEST performance

[@hussamalnawab]

I whole heartedly agree. Revolver is my fave too ✨

[@147johnwilliams]

This remix is an absolute triumph. My issue with the anniversary remixes of recent years is that the post-Pepper albums have largely had good original stereo mixes, so there hasn’t been a need to massively change them, resulting in minimal changes that make them, for me, inessential. Revolver is one of the albums that truly benefits from opening up the soundscape and turning away from the hard panning of the original. Credit has to go to Peter Jackson for developing this technology and to Giles for utilising it so effectively. Will be interesting to see how far this technology develops and whether they’ll be able to remix the early albums in a similar way.

[@jugibur2117]

I agree with you, although I have to say that the remix of "You Never Give Me Your Money" actually sounds a lot better, because the vocals and especially the instruments (to my ears) are more prominent. I now only listen to this version :-)

[@johnmelvinluce5320]

It's my favourite remix so far lush ,and beautiful

[@debessar95]

This remix did not solve any of the problems of the eternal debate about which is better - mono or stereo. One or two interestingly reworked songs like Eleanor Rigby don't affect anything, as mono still sounds better. But I liked the outtakes, although expected more variety and Eleanor Rigby's demo, which proves once again that Paul only wrote a fragment of the song.

[@Y-two-K]

@@debessar95 I disagree. I think this opens up the debate. Anyone who would argue that the og stereo mix of revolver is superior to the mono is insane. At least with this remix there's some competition, even if mono is still my favorite.

[@sunset1326]

honestly to be fair the post Pepper albums still had rough spots that needed to be cleaned up regardless (i.e. vocals panned to the right in “You Never Gave Me Your Money”) so honestly those being remixed to have some touch ups is justified

[@jpollackauthor]

I honestly got tears in my eyes hearing the harmonies during the solo on that And Your Bird Can Sing outtake - hearing John, Paul, and George give an unheard vocal performance was like having a few old friends back.

[@enshen2190]

Gotta love the “Love” appreciation. It’s such a good remix album

[@maddiemae73]

It’s one of my favorites! My dad would play that one all the time when I was little, and it’s how I first learned the Beatles. I immediately fell in love with the band and got to know a ton of their songs as young as 3 years old. It’s pretty much the reason I’m watching this video right now

[@1985indeed]

I wish cover bands played some of the Love songs

[@bev9708]

🎶"Turn off your mind relax and float down stream..."🎶 What a phenomenal a finale for that album!!!!!

[@Beetso]

The entire lyrics of that song can be summed up as: "How to Avoid Having a Bad Trip For Dummies"... LOL (PS: "Lay down all thought, surrender to the void" is by FAR the most important psychedelic protip in there! If you try to cling onto rational, normal thinking, and control the experience, you're gonna have a bad time! That's why "relax and float downstream is so important" the sooner you relinquish control and let the trip take you where it will, the sooner you can let go of the anxieties that lead to an unpleasant experience.)

[@acslater017]

@@chrisleigh4278 As I understand it, The Tibetan Book of the Dead is a guide to consciousness and rebirth after death, but may be interpreted as an allegory and guide to meditation which can produce similar experiences, e.g. altered states of consciousness, ego dissolution, visions, and psychological rebirth. Timothy Leary and gang loosely based their guide to psychedelics “The Psychedelic Experience” on it. Although they are not sustainable as long-term practices, LSD and other psychedelics produce similar spiritual experiences and many (including myself) have credited them with turning them onto meditation and spirituality. I have not read the original text, nor can I vouch for how closely or loosely Timothy Leary’s guide sticks to it. But as someone who has done psychedelics and now practices some Tibetan Buddhist-inspired meditation (i.e. Dzogchen) the connection is solid in my book. 😊

Giles Martin is every bit the musical genius his father was. This latest remix reworks well-known tracks in a way that enhances the depth of the music without changing the fundamental nature of it. He shows amazing respect for the source material, and reveals nuances previously obscured due to the limits of the technology available when the record was made. It is an astonishing achievement. Fingers crossed that we get Rubber Soul in the future

My best friend and I are huge Beatles fans. We promised each other we wouldn’t listen to the album until we hung out together, and today we both listened to it together. Blew our minds. My favorite, if I had to pick one, is the new Paperback Writer mix. Sounds like an entirely new song. And I just love the demo of John and Paul working on Yellow Submarine. This is the best remix/remaster so far 💛

As to the pied piper like appeal of Yellow Submarine to kids: the other day I played and sang it for my two year old granddaughter. She had never heard it before and I played it just one time through. Her attention was fixed while I sang it and several hours later my daughter (her mother) heard her singing the chorus over and and over. Fortunately my daughter recorded some of it on her phone and texted me a copy. I simply texted back, "The Power of the Beatles".

[@Nerkin610]

For No One is the greatest single mix Martin and Okell have ever accomplished! The drums are brought to the front and carry the song into another dimension. They used to be hidden away but finally we hear it all. Now the song is crisp, complete and dare I say perfectly mixed.

I listened to the whole thing between yesterday and today (no pun intended) and I was thrilled with how the new mixes sounded and with all the amazing demos and outtakes. The guitar solo in Tomorrow Never Knows shifting from one ear to the other, the echo in the Paperback Writer mono mix, the hidden organ in She Said She Said, and that freaking Yellow Submarine Songwriting Work Tape… I loved all of the 63 tracks, hats off to Giles Martin and his team for this astounding work. Looking forward to the Rubber Soul Super Deluxe Edition.

[@christianfliegendruck625]

cool, I like, how you're in it, it s also my topic! you say, they were involved in the mastering; that s right, but the pic at 2:47 shows a show.

It was "young Goeff" doing this SOUND by ADT, Artificial Double Tracking and of cors a STUDER L37 four-track tape machine.

[@zoobee]

the Beatles are like the Shakespeare of popular music. Just as Shakespeare has a corpus of work that is the high point of literary genius, that has influenced every writer since, the Beatles produced in a decade an explosion of musical art unlike anything, that influenced everything, the only way it can be explained is by the mystery of human genius that only arises rarely. A collective genius. They will last forever.

I enjoyed this probably more than all your previous vids, Elliot. interestingly, my father who would have been 101 years old if he hadn't died at age 50, loved the early Beatles (he demurred once Sgt. Pepper's came to pass) and his favourite song was, 'Here There and Everywhere'. Nice to know it's one of your's too.

[@JakeCuster]

This was one of the best box sets they’ve released and partly due to the fact it reveals so much mythology around the making of this album. That banter before Eleanor Rigby is one of the first times we hear other musicians other than The Beatles working on one of their songs, funny to hear their ideas and opinions. Also, the She Said She Said outtake seemed rather crucial as well because it’s been argued that Paul McCartney wasn’t available to play bass on it l so George did, but when I hear them talking in the beginning, it sounds like 4 distinct voices? I know it’s a rehearsal take but it sounds close to the final! Also I’m glad the remix of Yellow Submarine added back “a life of ease!” I know stereo wasn’t the biggest deal in 66, but come on, it’s too much fun to omit altogether. Always love your videos! The flame for the Beatles remains eternal

This Revolver release is absolutely mind blowing - Take 5 of Rain blew my socks off, with Ringo absolutely hammering the drums and Paul blistering away on bass.

The chorus is where they change, the one you can usually hear is playing an arpeggio, but the other one is playing chords the minor chords. And I love it.

I bought the box set last week (it's about time!) and it was an emotional experience. I cried over the rediscovery of the album. So many details went unnoticed before. I mean Révolver is my favourite album of all time and I thought I really knew it inside out. Well I was wrong! One of my favourite moment, is Ringo's drum break between Paperback Writer's 3rd & 4th verses. It's incredibly groovy! I listened to it 5 or 6 times in a row! Great video as usual! Just a mistake: it's not a new mono mix, it's the 1966 mono mix but with a new mastering!

[@brunoneiva6418]

Such a good video! We can see the passion and the amount of care you have making this. Overall Revolver mix 2022 has it's ups and downs. Like the sounds we can hear more clearly (like the goofy parts of yellow submarine and the yawn in I'm only sleeping) but in She Said She Said, they lowered the amazing and savage drums to give more focus on the guitar. It's not bad, bud it definitely has not the same fury as the original. In spite of all, I'm really satisfied with the results.

[@KidFresh71]

Love your channel. Keep up the great work!

Revolver 2022 sounds like a breath of fresh air. The Mono mix on CD again is a nice bonus. I just wish it was on Blu-Ray.

Blu ray? Lolz

Haven't listened to the deluxe version yet, but super hyped after watching this. Probably my favourite Beatles album, next to Abbey Road, and even just listening to the snippets in this vid, it's incredible how rejuvenated it all sounds. Also excited to hear what "Rain" sounds like, because it's brilliant and also one of my dad's favourite Beatles songs. lol.

The yellow submarine demo is a revelation. I see it as consistent with other confessional songs of the time like help and nowhere man. You wonder if the sea imagery relates to his Dad, a seaman. I tend to prefer the outtakes to start with because I’ve not heard most of them before. There are some real gems here. I was less impressed with the let it be outtakes. Then I return to the remix. Rebalancing the awkward panning is great and it sounds great. Thanks, Elliott. Your Beatles content is just about the best there is.

It's important to note that stereo was NOT in its infancy in 1966. Major performers like Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Ella Fitzgerald, and basically every jazz, pop and classical artist began recording in 3-track stereo between 1954 and 1960. Except for Elvis and a few others, only the rock, soul and country genres were really late to the stereo game. And those late 50's-early 60's stereo recordings by Sinatra, Elvis, et al sound amazing. So lifelike, spacious, and real. Not gimmicky, no hard panning, no vocal left/band right. None of that nonsense.

Thoroughly enjoyed this

Thank you very much for making this video.

My favorite track on the entire thing is the highlighted sound effects version of Yellow Submarine. I love the little chant that Ringo does at the start and how much more of a visual feel you get from the song with how much more audible the more minor aspects of the song are. It makes the song that much more adorable.

Thanks, always appreciate your videos and insights.

A Beatles album ranking would make for a great Christmas gift!

I'm not sure if anyone else had pointed this out in the comments, but you forgot one little thing when talking about the remixes. We all know how Yellow Submarine normally starts cold, with Ringo singing "In the town where I was born." In the new remix a G guitar chord plays along with Ringo, as he sings "in the" and from the word town onward, with the rest of the song basically the same, even with the rebalancing. It's pretty obvious if you listen to past mixes of the song and then, compare that to both the stereo and mono mixes, on this new super deluxe version. By the way, I hope you get to 100,000 subscribers soon.

Oh my goodness. The stereo mixing is mind blowing. I could really hear the instrumentation so much clearer. Finally the base and drums come alive instead of the mushy drowned out sound of previous versions. The vocals sound so much better too. I LOVE this album. A real treat.

I found the organ cutting through more in the new stereo mix than on my 1966 original on She Said She Said for one example. Liking the videos by the way. Now subscribed.
