Beatles - Maxwell's Silver Hammer ( rehearsal )

[PrincessAngelStar12]

George is either ear sensitive for a little wus, but he's a cute wus :)

[JessiJohanna]

where are they in this video why is the room red?

[1olrocker]

Mal Evans hitting the anvil with the hammer....priceless! He was as much a part of the band as Paul or John. He was the FIRST road crew/equipment manager in rock n roll history. Too bad he passed away so young.

[hauntday]

@Gyphia Dont you listen Paul?

[jprestissimo]

I guess they were too stoned to write a chart.

[patrick45sue]

They could of released it as a minor,e,aa, I still would of bought it...

[LameMailBox]

[richardsfinalfantasy]

The entire Let it be film is so painful to watch.

[theemmers15]

I luv george's converse and how he freaks out when the mic makes that sound I luv how mal Evans is 2 cool 4 words but I hate how sad they look in let it be.....

[TwinUndead]

@Gyphia If you listen at the beginning, Paul is saying them out loud.

[hoobadoobler]

@TwinUndead

ha im pretty sure that he was being sarcastic

[beansterman1998]

that ending should have been on the album

[hughilene]

MAL EVANS...REST IN PEACE...

[Somuchtoplay]

@Gyphia

[beansterman1998]

[agrace1112]

[15eyecatcher15]

@beansterman1998 no, to shocks

[mejasourus]

@beansterman1998 No, it shocked him.

[Stevesk0011]

[smartnessness123]

aha george is having a little trouble with his mic there...

[klwewf]

@Gyphia You never know on YouTube.

[klwewf]

@Gyphia Paul, John, George & Ringo do. And, any musician who took the time to learn it. Peace.

[youtubrfan]

I want to be in mal evans' position since he got to bang the hammer :p

[H3r3Com3sTh3Sun]

"Sometimes Paul would make us do these really fruity songs. I mean, my god, Maxwell's Silver Hammer was so fruity. After a while we did a good job on it, but when Paul got an idea or an arrangement in his head..."- George.

[DavelovesRealMusic]

@H3r3Com3sTh3Sun George never understood why paul would write whimsical songs when he was so talented. George was not into whimsy lol

[diperrimax]

my first name is maxwell and my middle name is silva lol swear to god

[skywalkeridrg]

...and after that final beeeep George became shy.

[Lovesthebeatles13]

i like georges shoes :). and did paul say made sure that paul was dead :)

[diperrimax]

@Lovesthebeatles13 he said make sure george was dead

[PiggyPinedog]

@diperrimax He said "made sure that Joan was dead," Joan as in the character in the song.

[cesaronpxndx2]

poor george jajajajajajajajaa

[crazyguitarkid77]

1:48 Person played hammer too early!

[PvPisHard]

@Gyphia made me laugh

[yourliver1]

lol, George. Gets shocked a second time trying to figure out how he got shocked the first time. Little known fact... after that happened he stuck a fork in a toaster to see if the rumours were true.

[klocke]

fucking Paul

[Marshallsg]

George hated this song lol.

[k0stil]

@Marshallsg

john also

[indyandsam]

@Marshallsg Everybody hates this song

[Marshallsg]

@indyandsam I love it.

[diperrimax]

@indyandsam me too

[darksideofdarkness]

Besides the internal tension at that time, one of the most annoying thing for them was that they had to arrive to Twickenham Studios at 8:00 am in the morning... hahah

[crazyguitarkid77]

2:13

[NarutoEX100]

it was inda funny when george jumped.

[lennonsbiggestfan]

look im the biggest of beatles fans but this is a poor song, macca would admit tht we all know what lennon and the rest of the band thort of it

[3milesong]

You can see from their faces that they are not enjoying their time with each other anymore. During this time, George wants to leave the group already but they still have a contract to do one more album I guess

[sainterosette]

... who's clanging the hammer? Is that Peter Sellers?

[BuddyComics]

@sainterosette Mal Evans.

[thecclproject1]

@BuddyComics Its actually Ringo banging the hamer

[diperrimax]

@thecclproject1 sorry ringos actually playing the drums malevans is clanging the hammer

[thecclproject1]

@diperrimax Yeah i just learned the song when i saw this vid, so i got a little cocky, sorry bout that

[handcuffshurt]

Ringo's hi hat work on the verse

[bassman619]

Someone want to fix the bloody mic short before George joins the choir invisibile?

[Hyperfighter3]

Poor Gerohe on 2:15 :P

[Majkel906]

2:16 lol :D aaa

[dbd4]

Paul clearly says Joan, not John.

[phreaker92]

paul says Joan cause he provided the letter H.

[redsideofmarch]

lol george

[claupee]

Mal Evans january 5 1976 34 years ago RIP thanks for all!

[macseth8421]

215 lol

[lovingeveryxsecond]

yeah, i'm pretty sure he says joan not john.

[greendayfan393]

hahahahahah that was funny with george an the mic. and i thought i heard ppaul say "make sure george is dead" not john. either way its fucke up

[graham170]

thats so cool he sings the chords at the start

[mrchristkngo]

LOL with George and the microphone

[mecaesare]

he really sings: to make sure John was dead. I wonder if John was hearing this at the same moment.

[th3b3atl3s43va]

no he saying joan not john

[the0new0man]

at 0:48 did paul sings : "make sure that john was dead ????"

[soupster875]

make sure that joan was dead

[mrchristkngo]

yes lol

[genesisrock43]

joan

[jimmylive54]

is that peter sellers bangin' the hammer in the background?

[hmaren]

It's Mal Evans, Road Manager and one of their inner circle.

[NiceyNiceGuyMike]

In my mind I see Lennon is a giant in music; and he is. Someone larger than life, but then to see him in some of these behind the scenes videos doing his part and supporting a song that isn't "his" is amazing. Almost unrealistic.

The Beatles were an amazing band in an amazing time.

[bookkeeper57]

In place of the lyrics, McCartney is calling out chords in the first piece. Ringo's song; orchestrated by Paul McC

[DNKOTOR]

poor George....AAAHHH!!!! FREAKIN' MIC!!!!

[burritoman5891]

i hate that yellow sweater

[PreacherofArrakeen]

Not Abbey Road. Either Twickenham or Apple at Saville Row.

[marcouandreas]

Fuckin' amazing just watching the creation of such a great and inspiring song!(please,don't think i'm a serial killer too!i just happen to love this song!)

[showtuneful]

Cool seeing the creative process.

[johnc310]

lololol at the guy with the hammer!!! He's the fifth Beatle!!!I'm crackin up over ere

[FamilyBullCorps]

that was in abbey road studios !

[GraceNicole87]

I Love This!

[observingworld]

They should have kept the whistling in. Charming.

[XradioactiveXgooX]

I love Georges shoes!

[frankymass]

ROFL wtf!!! so hilarious!!!!!

[sierralovespaul]

Poor Georgie

[johnhb72]
