A couple of weeks ago we introduced a baker's dozen (plus) of Beatles songs to the iVideosongs catalog, including classics such as I Feel Fine, Revolution and Yesterday. The Beatles faithful, including each of us, have been ecstatic.
We have been so blessed to work with the incomparable Giles Martin, the Grammy Award-winning co-producer of The Beatles LOVE CD and the music for the LOVE Cirque du Soleil show. In our Abbey Road sessions with Giles, he shared some amazing insight into the unique way the Beatles wrote and recorded their songs as well as personal stories that his father Sir George Martin and the Beatles have shared with him. Now we get to share all of this with you.
Each of the 14 Beatles titles we have previously released includes the magic of Giles Martin from Abbey Road. With a little help from our friend Giles, we are expanding our Beatles offering with the addition of eight more Beatles classics including Get Back, Help From My Friends and Paperback Writer. And for those of you, who like me, have always wondered about exactly how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall, we couldn't be more excited to offer you the masterpiece, A Day In The Life.
You know, sometimes the extraordinary musicality of The Beatles gets somewhat eclipsed by the discussion about their enormous cultural and social impact. But, what is undeniable is that this band rocked. When you dig deep into the song structures and kick butt musicianship, it's just incredible.
To my knowledge, iVideosongs is the first site on the planet to offer complete, accurate and authorized video instruction downloads of Beatles songs. Dig in and as they were once known to say, "dig it, dig it."
