The Beatles' Magical Orchestra: "Within You Without You" (2006) - Begins with introduction from 2005

[@bakerskaterboy6]

Beautiful. So rare, for this song to be played properly live. It requires some incredibly skilled musicians.

Look at the gentleman who's singing and how much he's studied vocals. His Jaw and Lip accentuate for a purpose. True masters of their craft 🙏

George Harrison's talent is underrated. I love " within you,without you" . best song off of S.P.

I realized later in life that this song is beyond song.

@John Bartlett Because it's exotic and yet melodic.

[@johnlornie4221]

I used to play this song all the time, you could say it struck a nerve in my head, the melody is quite beautiful.

[@andrewseagrove4922]

I agree , best song off sgt pepper..

[@constanzeamalievonbraunsch1793]

yes.

[@droboogie8465]

I wonder if the great George Harrison hadn't used his fame to introduce eastern music to the world, Ravi Shankar in particular, if it would ever found its way to so many listeners. The thing is, we westerners in our arrogance fail to recognize that many of the greatest musicians don't hale from the US or the UK, but from India As for me I became fascinated by Indian music after hearing it in some of the Beatles songs we all love- especially this one. George would have thoroughly enjoyed this rendition. Thanks for sharing it.

[@misterree1443]

Well said.

[@LeftyandFriends]

Indeed so. Baba Alludin Khan, pts Annapurna Devi, Nikhil Banerjee, Ravi Shankar, Ustad Vilayat Khan, Hari Prasad Chaurasia.....

This song is a miracle: pure Dharma from a Liverpool lad who had only recently discovered the musical and spiritual wisdom of India. Yet he was able to write this raga with words of pure timeless truth.

I remember being 16 years old looking at the cover of Sgt. Pepper and my heart sank. Saying to myself “the Beatles aren’t the Beatles anymore”. I could not of been more wrong.

Time Magazine or Newsweek, I'm not sure, when reviewed Sgt Peppers album on its launch, commented : the lost of innocence of the Beatles. You're not really to blame thought they were not they were had been before.

[@joe6096]

All this because George met a few Indian musicians on the set of Help!. Talk about being open to anything. Literally, anything that crossed the John, Paul, and George's paths at this time they ended up using in their music or lyrics. Amazing.

I see the talent of George more and more. He was just 24 /25 years old, when he wrote the song. He liked indian music so much and he learnd sitar.

[@gauradas108]

I was 12 years old when this came out on Sgt. Peppers. I used to listen to it on head phones daily, like entering into another world. When George sang of the people who live behind a wall of illusion and asks "Are you one of them?" I thought to myself I certainly hope not, but how do I know if I am just another illusioned unfortunate soul. This song led to my becoming a Hare Krishna monk for over 20 years, thanks to George. This is very well done. It must have taken a lot of rehearsal. Not an easy song to perform publicly but recreated very well.

[@riadiansyah258]

We were talking about the space between us all And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late, when they pass away We were talking about the love we all could share When we find it, to try our best to hold it there with our love With our love, we could save the world, if they only knew Try to realise it's all within yourself No one else can make you change And to see you're really only very small And life flows on within you and without you We were talking about the love that's gone so cold And the people who gain the world and lose their soul They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them? When you've seen beyond yourself then you may find Peace of mind is waiting there And the time will come when you see we're all one And life flows on within you and without you

[@godbluffvdgg]

These lyrics and that song should be the breaking news on every channel and the headlines of every paper in every language in the world...Until We've all seen beyond ourselves...:)...Namaskar.

It's absolutely true the ones that own the world have lost their souls but they can not see it, not yet anyway.

[@konasteph]

The Beatles took their transcendence trip(s) very seriously and they did uncover a few things that they maybe found impossible to share. I also BELIEVE that when they produced this number (and others pieces of music, as well) the money was not foremost on their mind! They went by content and beauty. Still, the world responded beautifully and gobbled it up! What would the world be without the Beatles!

[@flamencoprof]

To me these sounds tell two great stories: - 1. Mr. Harrison created a great work, especially the lyrics. 2. The tradition of Indian music is so great and rich that he needed only a few fragments (I won't say "samples") to provide enough to work with. Many thanks to all the musicians from both the original recording and this worthy version.

[@mirandachilde1894]

This is extraordinary. The musicians are first rate - authentic. And I can actually hear the parts more clearly than in the over-produced original on Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. The Vocalist/ Conductor was a real surprise. His voice is as least as good as Harrison’s - and I can make out EVERY word which I never could on the record. Thankfully the lyrics were on the sleeve of the original album. I will keep this. It’s one of my favorite “Beatle” songs and this performance is a definite keeper. Many thanks to the poster for the joy he has brought to so many of us!

The interest In Indian Music was already there. The Kinks went to Bombay in 1965 on their Asian tour. "See my Friends " is inspired by Indian Raga. 4 months before Norwegian Wood.

[@jameslanclos568]

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 This is true and I love the Kinks, they're one of the greatest and most underestimated bands ever. However, George Harrison is mostly responsible for the introduction of Indian music, religion and culture than any other influence. It's not really about who was first. George Harrison lived and breathed it.

[@jeffreykaufmann2867]

@jameslanclos568 Harrison was responsible for introducing the Sitar. But the interest in Indian Culture was happening with or without the Beatles.
