Very enjoyable. The difference is so great between this take and the rock version, it is like 2 different songs, not a minor tweeking. I like them both.
Great post, awsome work on your part TheBeatlesApple, thanks, very enjoyable. watched it 4 times in a row and favorited it.
@CurtinBones There are 4. Revolution 1, Revolution 9, Revolution the single version, and Revolution from the Promo Video. I like the last one the best =)
@CurtinBones I guess he would say that because he might not have thought the Prom Video to be a version, because the only thing different about it from the single is the lyrics.
this is the way that john origionally intended it to sound. And he wanted it to be a single, but paul and george convinced him that it would not make it because it was to slow. And so sessions for a faster version began the next day.
I got out my beatles bible, this is 100% real. page 136 first edition "the beatles recording sessions. the official abbey road studio session notes" by mark lewisohn, it gives a very good description of this ten minute version, the mama dada are paul and george and the high aaaaahhh is paul, very very cool to hear this, I suggest this book to all beatle fans. and thank you thebeatlesapple for posting this, I stand corrected, it is 100% real.
@cast390 More like lays there like a very high fish! Experimenting with music after experimenting with drugs. I'd be willing to bet much of their experiments came about from hiding in the studio due to the crazy fans.
Excellent - great video to go with it - thanks a million.

The Beatles are better than anything else. If you wanna see something new take a look at "The Book of Life" by William Nut.

there's a sound effect that sounds a bit like the Who's Armenia in the sky through this!

@kurtizzyflush Perhaps you're right but I prefer the hard rock version.

@cast390 maybe the 'hard' version is better - but as with all beatles songs it's fascinating to see or hear a song evolve ... great stuff!!
