ChevyVanMiller Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) One of the great mysteries in rock-n-roll solved. The opening chord to A Hard Days Night was actually John, George and Paul each playing separate chords to create one of the most iconic sounds in musical history. http://www.openculture.com/2011/12/guitarist_randy_bachman_demystifies_the_opening_chord_of_a_hard_days_night.html Edited February 18, 2015 by ChevyVanMiller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I never knew it was considered a mystery(or else I would have told everyone years ago....kidding) but that is a cool story and cool discovery One of the great mysteries in rock-n-roll solved.

Nanker Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 George Martin did a ton for that group. He really worked the overlay of tracks to a fine art. There are songs where John sings with John, and Paul with Paul producing strangely resonant harmonies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 This blows me away. I've fiddled around forever trying to figure that sucker out. worthwhile listen (until the Beatles are overrated crowd shows up). They're slightly overrated. Stones are number one. Beatles number two. But I hate the argument, because then you have to take sides against a still awesome band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
