The Beatles Lonely Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
The Beatles, also known as the White Album, is the ninth studio album by the English rock group the Beatles, released on 22 November 1968. A double album, it’s plain white sleeve has no graphics or text other than the band's name embossed,which was intended as a direct contrast to the vivid cover artwork of the band's earlier Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Although no singles were issued from The Beatles in Britain and the United States, the songs "Hey Jude" and "Revolution" originated from the same recording sessions and were issued on a single in August 1968. The album's songs range in style from British blues and ska to tracks influenced by Chuck Berry and by Karlheinz Stockhausen.
Most of the songs on the album were written during

    Song Analysis Of 'Revolution' By John Lennon

    “Revolution”, the single version, was recorded in the studio in July 1968. Originally, The Beatles recorded “Revolution” as a combination of “Revolution 1” and “Revolution 9”, written by John Lennon, for the White Album that was released later that year. Eventually, “Revolution 1” and “Revolution 9” were split into two tracks. “Revolution 1” was suppose to be the next single from the group. However, McCartney and Harrison had objections to the track for it’s tempo was too slow to be a single. After some objection from Lennon, they re-recorded the track at a moderate tempo and with heavily distorted electric guitars. The song became a raw, raucous, and feverous rock single. This outspoken and feverish single stands as one of Lennon’s first…

    Why Was Jfk Important

    They became the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed act of their era. The group’s line-up included John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. In February 1963, The Beatles recorded ten songs during a single marathon studio session for their debut LP, Please Please Me. After the moderate success of “Love Me Do”, “Please Please Me” met with a more emphatic reaction. It reached number 1 on every chart in London, except for Record Retailer, where it stalled at number 2. Their commercial success brought increased media exposure, which the Beatles responded with a irrelevant and comical attitude that defied the expectations of pop musicians at the time, inspiring even more interest. As their popularity spread, a frenzied adulation of the group took hold. Greeted with riotous enthusiasm and screaming fans, the press dubbed the phenomenon as…

    Brian Wilson's The Beach Boys

    Each individual member of The Beach Boys held certain roles within the group, that would lead to both their successes and their defeats. When the group first formed, in 1961, it consisted of five original members. Brothers Brian, Carl, and Dennis Wilson, along with their cousin Mike Love and high school mate Al Jardine. The three Wilson brothers were already making music in their first band “Carl and the Passions.” However, it was when Jardine went to his school friend Brian Wilson and suggested they start a group together, that The Beach Boys were formed. Wilson agreed to Jardine’s suggestion of a new group, but only on the condition that Carl and Dennis were included. Due to how the band was formed, Al and Brian were the implicit leaders.…

    How Did The Beatles Become Successful

    Imagine four teenagers who were determined to create a successful band regardless of the cost and work necessary to be successful. George Harrison, the lead guitarist, described this determination, "We're going to do it. I don't know why … we were just cocky" (Spitz 120). These four teenagers who were determined to be successful, never even dreamed of how successful they were going to be. Six years after starting their band, they were not only successful, but they were loved by both England and the United States. Today, many people continue to love the Beatles and have fond memories of these creative four young people. The Beatles affected both England and the United States with their songs and albums beginning…

    The Beatles Influence On Rock And Roll Music

    The Beatles were so popular partially because of their use of so many different instruments, and song forms. Some of the instruments that they use include the kazoo, banjo, recorder, and Choral Electric Sitar. Their song Revolution#9 has many different instruments and techniques. It was also a very experimental song as well, because of all of the techniques used in it. They did this so they would get a different, and unusual sound unlike any other. One of the techniques they would use is called looping. Looping is when you take a certain tape or audio file and you repeat it so that it sounds like you’re just repeating that phrase over and over again. They played around with playing tracks backward and combined 7 or 8 different songs together into one…

    First Amendment and Music Censorship Essay Example

    Through the decades, artists such as Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones have raised controversy over their seemingly explicit acts that are now viewed as legendary. Parents banned their children from watching Elvis Presley and his outrageous hip movements though today these moves are copied by Britney Spears, pop groups, and dancers all over the world. In 1956, Ed Sullivan deemed Elvis "unfit for a family audience." However, in 1970 Elvis met the President in the Oval Office, and now his face appears on a postage stamp (RIAA; History 2 of 4). On June 15, 1966, The Beatles released their album Yesterday...and Today featuring a shocking cover with the foursome surrounded by raw meat and butchered baby dolls. Immediately the album was withdrawn from music shelves everywhere and returned only with a new approved cover, now the original copy is worth thousands of dollars. Today Beatlemania is considered an era of their own, which began in Great Britain and spread throughout the world. In 1964, The Rolling Stones catapulted to fame amid outrage and…

    Bands of America was very cool this year! The bus ride went very well, only problem being that every bump hit would rewind the movie that was playing. Once we got there everything went very smoothly. I got to help the band moms put the hat boxes in order! Warm ups there were a lot of jitters in the air it seemed, but not bad ones. Waiting to get on the field was extremely nerve wracking. But, once we got on the field everything seemed nice and mellow, like we were back on the field at home, it just had a different crowd and background. I feel really good about the performance. We did the best we could do and our best got us third in our class! Heading to the hotel and getting to lay down and rest was very nice and much needed. The food was…

    Miss Lonelyhearts

    Throughout the entire novel, the protagonist is known exclusively as Miss Lonelyhearts. We cannot identify his real name in the story. He is only known by the code name of Miss Lonelyhearts. The character is a newspaper columnist who works for an irresistibly drunk obnoxious boss who gives him a hard time continuously by mocking Miss Lonelyhearts’ Christian faith. As the reader of the novel, we understand and recognize his struggle with the letters he receives from people who seek advice from this columnist of Miss Lonelyhearts. A lot of these letters are serious issues, which by reading them, affects Miss Lonelyhearts and quickly puts him into deep depression. Probable readers of this novel would believe that quitting his job would’ve eased his misery, but why did he decide to continue his job? Was he an otaku and believed that the people who were sending him mails were his true “social affecters”? What is the significance of his name? Was he a “lonely” character? Throughout the entire novel, he goes through many unusual events, events that can be symbolized of him being “lonely”. As a reader, we only know a little about the background of Miss Lonelyhearts. We reckon that Miss Lonelyhearts and Betty had some past intimacy. As of my interpretation, Betty is the only person who cares for Miss Lonelyhearts in a sense of affection that can be shown from a compassionate person; “Betty came to see Miss Lonelyhearts the next day and every day thereafter. With her she brought soup and boiled chicken for him to eat” (35). He has other affiliations with other woman in the story, but none of them are considerably close to the compassionate figure of Betty. Miss Lonelyhearts refers to Betty as “Betty the Buddha” because she is the only character who brings peace and order to Miss Lonelyhearts’ chaotic life. There is something inside of Miss Lonelyhearts that we cannot understand as a character. He is a character with very few…

    The Beatles Influence on the Tourism Industry in Liverpool

    The Beatles were a rock group formed in 1960 in Liverpool. They were the most successful and critically acclaimed acts in popular music history (Unterberger, 2009). It could be argued that the Beatles were one of the best things to happen in the twentieth century, let alone the sixties. They were seen as being youth personified and as being unmatched innovators being bigger that Jesus and rock & roll itself. They sold more than a billion records, breaking numerous records along the way and even after the split in 1969 the Beatles carried on making history and the Beatles album of Number One hits going onto to become the best selling album of the 2000’s hitting number one in 35 different countries (RollingStone).…
