Tell Me Why- The Beatles (Guitar Cover)

[@sampopkin]

John: top screen, panned right George: bottom screen, panned left

[@elirosen1391]

Tell Me Why is a greatly underrated track off "A Hard Day's Night". The harmonies are gorgeous, and the feel is as jumpy as "All My Loving".

[@Floyd_18]

John’s vocals are absolutely incredible, he was on fire in ‘64! My favourite album by them.

[@GoobyShears]

@@Floyd_18 he was really productive early-beatles, before the drugs and probably brian epstein's death.

[@stickydrummer1.0]

absoloutely. Thats why it is my favourite beatles Song

[@JoaoGabriel-lk9cv]

⁠​⁠@@GoobyShearsafter the drugs he wrote his best songs imo. But yes, he was really productive in 1964.

[@GoobyShears]

@@JoaoGabriel-lk9cv agreed, his best work was definitely during the later years of the band

[@randallpinkfloyd]

Hopefully we get a You Can’t Do That cover next 😁

[@rockyraccoon2817]

YOOOOO, glad you are borrowing MJsokes' 325, I hope we see more early Beatle covers with it!

[@EricNielsen85]

Thank you Sam. I've got a fever, and the only medication, is more covers! Beatle covers with gorgeous gear!

[@RockinAllDay]

The little chord changes are such great additions to the song. I just love these covers.

[@imisskatelyn9517]

So pure and enjoyable. Thank you.

[@CruzMorales-n6s]

i’m loving these early beatles covers! it’s always amazing to see how well john and george weaved their guitar parts together even at such an early stage in their careers, fantastic job as always sam 👏👏

[@joestarr05]

I KNEW IT! That was definitely amazing.

[@54macdog]

One of my favourites! Brought a huge smile to my face!

[@NUKE.2024]

Thanks Sam; great melody. Folks, Ringo's drumming is great - best of the album

[@juodet]

Great work!!, this convinces me. It's a strumming pattern that's tough to catch because the guitars are pretty buried in the mix. I think you and Mattiboo do it in a similar way, and I really like it. I’ve always believed it’s about the Rick 12 because of the almost imperceptible slide from the D chord towards the last frets at 2:05 of the song. I think that’s my only evidence😂

[@sampopkin]

Woah I missed that slide up! That’s cool. Pretty sure that’s Lennon’s guitar in center in the stereo mix, and George on the left channel

[@robbnasinovish]

Fits like a glove ..spot on Sam. Good stuff

[@stickydrummer1.0]

I've always waited for your cover of this song and when I saw your video on the yt fy-page I couln't believe it actually. It sounds really great!!

[@stickydrummer1.0]

it is so accurate, that it's basically a guitar recreation

[@quochuyle1771]

Yay, another top-5-to-play for me - I always love the strumming and chord progression of this one 😁! P/S: Please Please Me 😋!

[@Don_Master83]

That Gretsch looks and sounds so good. Cover sounds great as usual!

[@josephsimon534]

Sam just wonderful. I find myself turning on my phone just to see what perfection you come up with next. Love it as always 🎸👍

[@thomasprince325]

Great cover Sam! Love the look of Michaels 320b. I always thought George used the 360/12 until the GTE episode on the tenny.

[@gdholmfirth]

Bravo. Excellent job! I appreciated seeing you play the last chords in the ending. I usually play alone, along with the CD. Anyone doing that will gain a huge appreciation for "Hard Day's Night" album. Great to play along with.

[@sharonhamama]

Great Guitars Man ! The sound is amazing 💥

[@richm7410]

Well done sir. Thanks!

[@GretschMan878]

Absolutely neiled it!

[@SC_3344]

I love everything about this how it sounds accurate and the guitars oh my days they look good

[@avYhz5536]

love the tennessean chime!

[@octavianorogesmusic]

Love the percussive-ness! (Pls pls pls do money i need to hear on that rick)

[@danielanderson2331]

Fantastic

[@bojackhorseman5367]

Is it weird that I recognised that Ric 325 from the thunbnail? 😁

[@osfabulososbeatles9103]

I ❤ THE BEATLES!!!!

Nice as always Sam, bravo

That was honestly....fab!

You just get better and better, Sam!

Fab cover Sam! Quick request u should do I want to hold your hand next!

[@EliteOneTV]

He would have to borrow a Rickenbacker 425 for that one!

[@Cover_McCartney]

@@EliteOneTV oh yeah that’s right, George played the lead on the 425!

[@BeatlesCentricUniverse]

Just great!

[@josuepon0318]

Absolutely Fab !

[@thewhaleking]

that is one of my favourite hard day's nigth songs mate! a few weeks ago I was struck in great depression, and this song really cheered me up

[@centoeberhardt1663]

You're right, it's truly the best song on A Hard Day's Night😜😛

[@thewhaleking]

@@centoeberhardt1663 Yes! Please check out my new cover and u want to say hi to one of my closest girl bsfs Ruby?

[@rodrigocecchetto]

I can't wait for you to have a Hofner Bass and play Paul's lines too!

[@fellowboahplays7783]

This boy next?!?! PLEASEEE

[@okguitarvideos]

I Want To Hold Your Hand next now that you get the 325 :)? You Can't Do That is also iconic with that 325 sound!

[@creeke_alley]

I love that Rick ❤where did you get that kind of yellow headstock plate? Anyways as always an absolutely amazing cover!

[@sampopkin]

The rick 325 belongs to Michael Sokil. I know that many years ago he had it modded by a guy who made a lot of executive choices to make it look like John’s capri

[@MichaelSokil]

the pickguard and headstock plate are original! for some reason the 325c58 has a greener tint, but the B and V series seems closer to john’s gold color. interesting!

[@magraretsbane6274]

Interesting that you used the Tennessean on this one, I can’t wait to read the description on this one!

[@grimmere532]

You should do a cover of I Want To Hold Your Hand! Amazing playing as always

[@carloskiv]

So beautifull It's increíble to see that wowww❤❤❤❤🎉🎉

[@matheusxis4260]

Thank you 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@KRW628]

Just what I've always thought... it was that walking BASS LINE which makes this song. John and George did their jobs, but it was Paulie who rocked this one.

[@AnotherWildDayAgain]

Please do "You can`t do that next"!

[@dylanphilippi8895]

How much would Michael really miss his 325 if you just kept it forever? Im sure you could let him borrow it.

[@sampopkin]

Haha I wish I could keep it forever

[@MichaelSokil]

don’t give him any ideas

[@SurferJoe1]

A lifelong top-fiver (and at some points my absolute favorite). Is this the only time the Beatles swung?

[@sampopkin]

I believe all my loving is also a swing

[@SurferJoe1]

@@sampopkin Wow- never would have thought of that.

[@BROKENBOILER1]

Excellent work as always! What split screen video app do you use?

[@sampopkin]

iMovie

[@HandOfDoom9349]

Sounds remarkably like a 12 string!

[@sampopkin]

I guess the combo of the two six strings playing the same thing!

[@ric8248]

There's not many channels doing due justice to these songs. Hoping for Anytime At All someday.

[@robertocolman]

Man, i want to do a bass cover with this Video

[@sammyfata-qb7tf]

I got really excited and thought you got a 325 😅

[@scat3040]

Now that's a middle eight

[@JacobKMusics]

Who’d have thought George used the Tenny on this one? I always used the Rick 12. The more you know!

[@centoeberhardt1663]

Nailed it, Sam!!!😛😃 Btw, since Michael lent you his 325 for a while, do you think you could do Baby's In Black (finally 😜😂) as well?😉🙃

[@sampopkin]

Yes! You’ve been so patient

[@emcabrera9888]

Pls do Strawberry Fields Forever (Love Version) it's amazing

[@mercymallari1060]

Next, can you do Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (song) please.

[@lptomtom]

How do you like the 325? I played it once and hated the short scale, but it looks so iconic...

[@sampopkin]

It’s very tiny but I don’t mind that, especially playing ukulele and mandolin often. It sounds incredible!

[@kafkakaraokechanne6779]

We got a rickenbacker 325c58 before GTA 6

[@pedrez_]

I think they recorded this song with J-160Es!

[@sampopkin]

Yeah? What makes you think that. Not disagreeing just curious

[@pedrez_]

@@sampopkin listening again jajaja, maybe I'm wrong kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4SrlaRvhK-Dipo.. I listen to a "gretschy" sound

you mean when the middle eight comes? No neither of them
