A super Super SUPER classic by the greatest band ever, The Beatles!!! And as well a fitting song for this day in Valencia, a day blessed with Rain…
The songs these lads were coming up with so long, long ago and that sound…to me and to many millions I know…so fresh today. Of course, nothing and none others have been able to make anything better…
«Rain», written by John Lennon, (although it says Lennon/McCartney on the record), in 1966, it was the B side of «Paperback Writer», the best B side ever by the lads…
The last verse of the song is backwards and The Beatles were one of the firsts…if not the firsts…to use such a studio effect. John Lennon and George Martin both claim to have developed such an idea. But Lennon said he went home at about 0400 hours after a long recording session and kept experimenting. When he placed the tape in his home recorder he inadvertently…probably because he was dead tired…placed it backwards. Then he listened and liked what he heard. That was how it happened according to John…
Enjoy. And for your visit,
Cheers…

They stayed the course because not only were they brilliant to start with, they were innovative throughout their career. As a sidenote, Paul is headlining Glastonbury this year

Yes they did, brilliant from the start and brilliant to the end! And they were smart enough to finish at the top, never a nostalgia act, always something new and innovative. So Macca headlining Glastonbury! Just watching a video of 09 Glastonbury with another legend, Tom Jones! Cheers mate and all the best to you! (one hour to wine time in Spain)

That was the coolest thing about buying Beatle’s 45 records. The «B» side was always just another great song. Great song to share, my friend!

You´re right! Well, I must say that I find all Beatles songs equally good and enjoyable. That differentiated them from so many, or I would say, just about all the rest. Because even though I was a fan of many bands, like, say, Pink Floyd, I realised that all their songs were not equally good. With The Beatles, I loved all the songs in the albums. Thanks and take good care!
