Taxman The Beatles - Solo - Guitar Cover www.FarhatGuitar

[MrWildcats53]

Who cares if it was from Paul? Just watch the video and dont debate over it.

[mtc1982mtc]

From Brazil

Very good, man.

[AshesBurger]

Yes it was a Paul contribution and he made this in an indian style, in the "E" key , just for George. It's really a great solo, I tell you....

[Urutora72]

El punto de la Guitarra de Taxman es hecho por PAUL McCARTNEY, realmente sorprendente la creatividad de Paul para hacer semejante punteo de guitarra, muy aparte del Bajo que también es bastante interesante.

[merenvagyokakacsa]

and ringo... he was the drummer.

[scottjk1995]

why so many angles?

[fokkerdv2]

George was a great songwriter . period . no too, no if, no then, he was great man

people dont underestimate him because he was with great others, they do because he never wanted to be mr. bigstar, he wanted peace and got it. He chose to be who he was and thats why he's great, i mean, really, while my guitar gently weeps, something, here comes the sun, savoy truffle, all things must pass, dark horse, my sweet lord ........geez i can keep this all day long!

[jonnytheoasisfan]

proper shredding isnt this?

plz play also guitar solo of Start! by The Jam

[menoziinrevoltado]

The beginning of this solo is awesome.

The rest too but... you know what I mean.

[AnonymusDuck]

I wonder how many people who watched this video knew that Paul was the one who played this solo instead of George

[AmigoFiell]

@AnonymusDuck

really why did paul played it instead of george????

[cast390]

@AmigoFiell When paul played it for george,He liked it cause it had a middle eastern sound to it so they kept it

[Shancus32796]

Oh. Wow. That was amazing.

[handsupbud]

Liberation Army...Please commit suicide immediately.

There's no doubt that Paul was the most technically adept musician of the group; he could pick up most instruments and develop a 'feel'/fluency in a relatively short length of time. However, I don't think that technical ability is the only benchmark of being a good musician (in rock music). George, John and Ringo had tremendous feel, too, and George in particular came up with memorable, melodic solos, and fills time and again. John, too, at times.

[ukkjd]

Paul was the driving musical force behind the group! Most of their songs, he was playing the parts & producing.

[ramiraptor]

donate oh please

[LiberationArmy]

Seems that Paul will ever be the most underrated Beatle (lets Ringo out, I'm meanin' o' the 3 ones, John, George & Paul) but mate, he's a great bassist / guitarist -not to mention other instruments like drums or keyboards- he's a top singer & songwriter too! What happen is that many people can't stand that the most o' his stuff it's 'bout romantic themes & call him "soft" forguetin' songs like Helter Skelter, just to remember one o' 'em...

[JiggityJohn]

@LiberationArmy my beef with paul is that he's become sort of a sell-out. i understand it's what he likes to do and everything, but he just comes off so cheesy most of the time now. i don't doubt his musical writing/performing abilities, but he needs to just learn some humility in his old age

[LiberationArmy]

@JiggityJohn Hi mate! I have 2 say I don't listen Paul's stuff often these days, I don't even hear news o' him-I'm into another stuff, U know what I mean?- Is he an arrogant old git these days? I wonder, 'cos I dunno. My point here was that he's a great musician, he deserves more respect 4 that, as a fellow, yeah, he did so many bullshit... greetings pal!

[Herringish]

@LiberationArmy What the hell did that crap even mean?

[paranormal33]

@LiberationArmy

I don't think Paul is underrated. I think most people realize the enormity of his talents, but at the same time....he doesn't and never did have the "soul" of John Lennon.

[beatleswine]

it was paul

[yiommi]

Cool

[uraniumgrenade]

Dude, you're a fucking idiot. What kind of retard takes that seriously?

[TheCannabisKing]

aww, i mean, PLAYED guitar..

[TheCannabisKing]

not to mention, ringo plays guitar, so it is pretty similar to paul playing the lick, having been the bassist.

[nofx221984]

thats actually ringo starr playing the solo everyone!

[TheCannabisKing]

where did you get this info from? you need to go to your source and smack em.. its paul man.

[nofx221984]

Its a parody on everyone here disagreeing over whether its Paul or Geroge. I was being sarcastic. :P

[TheCannabisKing]

well obviously there is some confusion(maybe deliberate) on who plays it, but being sarcastic on the internet is futile.

[im2cow4u]

actually, I noted the sarcasm quite easily...

Because Ringo would obviously not be the one playing the solo, its funny.

[TheCannabisKing]

oh, i have heard worse form people who weren't being sarcastic..

[im2cow4u]

fair enough

some people are stupid on the internet

others are not.

[nofx221984]

Nah, its innocuous and fun. Relax man, its the internet. Youtube wars are fun. :P

[matiyallegra]

The Taxman solo is play By Paul McCartney

[PanamaJack69]

nice, though i'd get that G in tune and re-post were I you.

[Iamlemonow37]

yeah that's right paul do that stuff :)

[SeanSM92]

I wish I could play it, but I can't be arsed learning it because it looks hard.

[u2forinterpol]

lol it's george harrison.

paul plays bass

[italianstalion04]

no its definetly paul mccartney. your wrong

[mosavel006]

WOW!

[Laughingman120]

tab?

[abecerril86]

nice, 5stars, u need a bass player go to my channel or give me a ring:D

[mulle4321]

crazy

that you can do that is amazing just great =)

[sxcxk777]

that was intense lol

[jonny1251]

This seems like this was a one-time solo for Paul that he just made up on the spot. I doubt he actually planned it out before he recorded it.

[juandefucan]

Braintap is correct, Taxman was Paul's solo. AllanB4 is correct, it was played backwards.... if by backwards he meant left-handed.

A lot of these Beatles solos are "easy" if you mean just playing the notes. I taught myself "Something" in a few days, but a year later I'm still not happy with it. It has to be so smooth, and the bends, pre-bends and slides have to be perfect, and the feeling George played with... well that I can only strive for...

Don't settle for just playing the notes.

[Braintap]

I play too.... I find this solo as difficult as any Pink Floyd that I play..... don't get me wrong, I love Gilmour. It's just that it's hard to really get George's solos just right!  I still can't get it to where I'm totally satisfied.....................­.

[JohnGaltX007]

This is actually Paul's solo.

[AllanB4]

That solo was recorded backwards, took atleast a good 70 attempts to get it perfect, i miss george

[Braintap]

Actually, it was not recorded backword (although the Tomorrow Never Knows solo was) and it was Paul on lead, not George.

[leebtheloser]

so was im only sleeping :)

[tomelaide]

Im only sleeping solo

[DaMadSkater]

cool

[JonnyYang123]

wow the solo's easier than i thought

[abcdiu]

this solo was made by paul..!

[bippichubb]

well done,the best recreation of the taxman solo ive ever heard,...bet it took you a few takes though......go on say it did...quality

[beatlespeace96]

Holy CRAP. That's hard.

[IJustLoveGeorge]

gEORGE ITS A GREAT SONGWRITTER TOO :)

[LazyCane]

a great solo; as other pieces from George at that time it was influenced by sitar and oriental tunes

[uburei]

this was paul solo, come on!

[wwekane2468]

Well Paul actually does the solo on the album.

[mattCIN]

it was a paul solo, but i think that the indian influence it's clear on this thing

[iggypoprox]

i heard that george asked paul to play the solo like with an indian influence and both of them were pleased with the results

[salrap10]

i love this song. this solo is rly hard to learn i only got the first part down lol.

[weeweepad]

What tone, very angry solo, I think paul played it..Juns the man, King of Japan!!! Hey i like that...

[fredthejunkman]

Yeah, Paul did play the solo...George couldn't think of any licks, so George Martin asked Paul to play something and he did it in two takes!

[6401m0183]

nice play!!

[davimontenegro]

Very good, man! Not only the solo was well played, but you recorded and edited the video in a very didatic way.

Nice work! Keep posting some more of these.

[aimtrue45]

Ripping guitar solo! Excellent work!

[aimtrue45]

Ripping guitar solo! Excellent work!

[guitardds]

Awesome, this is not an easy solo despite that its short. that run down the neck seems to be out of sync with the natural timing but it fits. Took me many listens to finally feel it but I did end up getting it. thanks

[guitardds]

Paul was by far the best musician in the group. Nothing to take away from Lennon and Harrison, for they were extremely creative composers as well, it's just that Paul had the most skill at playing at that point in time. I believe Harrison eventually passed him up on guitar.

[Bobalithmiss1]

But Lennon was a better song writer

[BroBroInc]

@guitardds bass is nothing compared to guitar george was better.

[Thirdalproductions]

@BroBroInc Hmm, not entirely. Paul's bass lines can be pretty hard. "I Saw Her Standing There", "Rain", "Paperback Writer", and "Dear Prudence", to name a few...

[QVrat123]

@guitardds

Yeah Paul is a really talented musician, he was by far the best bass player in the group. He was a really good drummer just listen to Dear Prudence (ringo left the group temporarily and Paul filled in for him). He was the most talented pianist/keyboardist in the group, John was good too. And pretty good at guitar although his solos are kind of quarky.

Yeah George sorta fell as a guitarist during Revolver, Sgt. Pepper, and MMT. When the white album hit he came back with a force!

[masonha1]

@guitardds i actually disagree, paul was thr most versatile but i think them 3 had equal guitar abilities

[xXxSovietRussiaxXx]

@guitardds wat about ringo?XD

[95arsenalfan]

@guitardds mate paul played bass all the way through the beatles

[silentavengerIV]

@95arsenalfan he played guitar too, like the solo in this song, blackbird,. i will, yesterday and i probably missed some

[tzhr]

@95arsenalfan but he played guitar with lennon and the quarry men

[Noseheros]

@tzhr sometimes he played guitar, liek Im pretty sure its him on blackbird

[adrimarJJ]

What's your problem with Paul, a monster? he was NOT the reason they broke up. But besides that, it was actually Paul who played the Taxman solo (everybody knows that), Mark Lewinsohn (a Beatle researcher) said it in his book "The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions" The most complete guide about their recordings.

That's why you heard him playing it, because it was him who had done it in the first place

[brawlmelee13]

it's true

[johndenner]

Very good work!!!

[officialchiefofpeace]

very good, considering that the solo was played bacwards on the recording!

[beatles4sale]

no it want you fucknut, it was recorded normally, and later used backwards for tommorow never knows.

[Edhallick]

I heard Paul McCartney played this solo which of course much have pleased George Harrison tremendously. I always laugh when I hear people say "Yoko broke up the Beatles". Oh please, it was Paul all he way. Any fool can see that in the Let it be movie. The other three continued to play together except without the McCartney monster. The Beatles continued all the way to 1975.

[jreyes87]

yeah it wasnt yoko. but there are interviews with lennon, saying how the beatles broke up since brian epstien died. he says that after his death they were just recording music together using each other as back up musicians, but not as a whole band thing.

[beatles4sale]

that isnt true, because paul also played on ringos album.

[nrobnas]

Brian Epstein did manage the Beatles and kept them together, I mean, he was like their father. Who knows what happened after that. They all have and had brilliant solo careers after the Beatles. Billy preston also helped the four get along because Billy was a saint.

[brawlmelee13]

no, he plays a lot of instruments and solos

[CarlosAtreides]

sorry, dumb comment ^^U...

[CarlosAtreides]

tuning isnt on E... is standard tuning
