The Beatles jazzing out? Woww......... A tad like the jazz stuff Bachman Turner Overdrive did, although not as unexpected here. Turn it up loud enough and this WILL blow me down.  |

hearing that song always remind me of that sunny summer afternoon where i'd put the record on and that song just went on and on for hours. the vinyl was skipping at the end of side a but you couldn't notice it, really. it was skipping the exact set of measures so the song became perpetual. i got off the couch at sunset thinking who needs drugs when we have the beatles. one of the best musical moments in my life. certainly the most addictive...

You must be young. :p Moogs were the first really successful synthesizers. What computers do now with a click of a mouse would take minutes or hours to set up in those ancient days (late 60's onward). Listen to pretty much any Emerson, Lake, and Palmer album for that era. |

I would love to have been inside their heads when they wrote this. What magic was there, what expansive scenes of the universe draped on their eyes, what chants of the gods raining down on them? Not the pinnacle of The Beatles, but damn close.

Must be because we sometimes feel like kids again, listening to music like this :p |

I wore my stylus out listening to this album.  I guess I can't wear out my laser listening to the CD  :D |

If I'm not wrong (and I often am), this song features one of the first commercial uses of a moog. The Beatle were beaten in its use by Beaver & Kraus and Simon & Garfunkel.
Whatever..it's still a powerful song.

I just requested this on KPIG the other day and didn't hear it, so this is a bonus and a big 10.

Probably someone who isn't capable of loving/liking a song like this the way others appear to do, rates this a 1. IOW; envy.

Yeah, no kidding! rorscach12, a reviewer on amazon.com sums it up for me in his review for "I am Sam" where he says:
... we can be forgiven for being apprehensive about today's pop scene entangling The Beatles into the immeasurable mess in which it is in. Luckily, the producers of I Am Sam ignored the artists who most encourage cynicism about today's pop music in classic rock sticklers (No P Diddy and twelve interchangeable cohorts filling "Strawberry Fields Forever" with declarations of "uh-huh yeah!" or Limp Bizkit turning "Fixing a Hole" into a song about date rape) and invited a plethora of artists more or less outside the mind-numbing mainstream and better known to audiences of public and college radio stations to perform their favorite Beatles tunes. |

I find it so amazing that people would slinging 1s around and still listening to RP. I mean really -- I can hardly imagine giving a 4 for any song I hear on a station I like, let alone a 1. What's left for all the drivel on the radio today? Minus tens?

I agree with RParadise... who could rate this a 1? Every group and artist since has pilfered from, or been inspired by the Beatles, and this isn't exactly the early more fluffy (though no less important) stuff.
This is trance from 1969... so chill.
Cheers
