I don’t think they particularly appreciate what makes a great record great. A classic example of this – and this is an act more identified with Abbey Road than just about anybody – is the Beatles. Really, we talk about them as great songwriters. All right. Fair enough. The career of The Beatles took off in the winter of 1962, along with the fortunes of Parlophone, EMI and Abbey Road. Pictured: Pink Floyd Bradley Cooper reacts to Brooke Shields calling him her 'guardian angel' after he helped her survive terrifying seizure It delivers music chosen using its proprietary algorithms and digital fingerprints, soon to be informed by machine learning, and already proven to ease stress in dementia patients. Ah, he says, ask Spotify. Does this thing at the end of the year where it tells you the tune you’ve listened to most.
Mastermind behind the Kardashians' billion-dollar brands (including SKIMS and Good American) reveals how 'anyone' can achieve business success It’s an absolutely magical record. I’m not the world’s biggest Roy Harper fan; but I just think, not many artists get the opportunity in their life to make a great record. The Beatles did it a dozen times. Roy Harper did it once.
He also describes how Norman Smith used a compressor, which had finally been released from the clutches of the boffins at Hayes and was now available for use in a British studio, on the bass and drums separately instead of together, as had been the usual practice. The next thing he did, which he had never done before, was suspend an overhead microphone above Ringo’s brand-new Ludwig drum kit, a celebrity perk with which the drummer was well pleased. This immediately had the salutary effect of putting the drums, which are the first thing you hear on the record, at the forefront of the sound, which seemed to lend the entire enterprise a wholly new energy. Suddenly the very air of Studio Two seemed charged with particles that had not been present before. David Hepworth was in Abbey Road 12 months ago when Noel Gallagher was putting strings on his new record. The string section was downstairs. Kate Middleton proves Omid Scobie's cruel Stepford Wife jibes are far from the truth - from abseiling cliffs in Wales to confident speeches In Abbey Road – and it happened there more easily than anywhere else because it was the full-service recording studios - they’d be having dance bands, comedy records, classic records, pop records, all under the same roof. Of course, I especially liked reading about The Beatles and how they recorded at the studios, and as I read, I found myself yearning to visit the studios. I have been across the zebra crossing outside, of course, but have never been inside. Occasionally, the studio runs tours - I MUST go to one of these.
It’s been another brilliant year for us here at Abbey Road.
In the wake of the desire to install the Beatles securely in the pantheon of so-called serious artists has come a tendency to place too much emphasis on their songwriting and not enough emphasis on the way they performed songs, even when those songs were written by other people. “Twist And Shout” is the key example of this. By the time they had finished with it, it was their song. It was the perfect vehicle for them to put over their special sauce, which was what happened when they sank their individuality into the group. Once you had heard them do these American songs you no longer had much time for the so-called originals. This was no longer a group trying to sound like anyone else. This was a group who wanted to sound like themselves. That was what shone right through “Twist And Shout.” As Ian MacDonald was to say of the record in his book Revolution in the Head, “nothing of this intensity had ever been recorded in a British pop studio.” I'm A Celebrity legend Phil Tufnell details how 'mentally and physically' tough he found jungle life the second time around Kelly Clarkson, 41, shows off her weight loss in a green-and-white dress as she interviews Mark Harmon who teases a Freaky Friday sequel But as a performance – as a recorded performance captured – there was everything there. It’s the projection of personality. The capturing of personality on the record.’
