Ever seen an artist create a global smash hit from the moment of inception through each and every moment of rehearsal and refinement to recording, live premier, and continued real time performances 60 years later? With "Get Back," now you have. Pulling this out of the ether during the 1969 Twickenham sessions, this seedling turns into a fantastic performance by the lads, brought to its' full potential with assistance from Billy Preston. As it says in the ad for the single, it's "music to rollercoast to" and who are we to argue?
Joining us this week are Robert Rodriguez and Jerry Hammack. You may know Robert from his brilliant and long running podcast, Something About the Beatles and his books, and Jerry's the author of the Beatles Recording Reference Manuals, a fab 5 volume series documenting how each and every musical sausage was made by the band. They've joined forces now for Ribbons of Rust: The Beatles Recording History in Context. It's a fascinating deep dive into the recordings and the world, musical and otherwise, that informed them. Volume 1 is out now, covering 1954-1963, so there's A LOT more to look forward to! Grab a copy at RibbonsofRust.net!
What do you think about "Get Back" at #75? Too high? Too low? Let us know in the comments on Facebook, Instagram, or find us now on Bluesky! Be sure to check out www.rankingthebeatles.com and grab a Rank Your Own Beatles poster, some of our new Revolver-themed merch, a shirt, a jumper, whatever you like! And if you're digging what we do, don't forget to Buy Us A Coffee!
