“Paperback Writer” - The Beatles (1966)

Meanwhile, Ringo:

@ButteredFrog I’m always amazed with the film quality of this clip and the same goes for the clip of the great song Rain which was the B side of this single.

Songs like Paperback Writer are what set The Beatles apart. The guitar riff, intelligent lyrics about unique subject matter, the harmonies, THAT bass, etc. A true pop masterpiece.

Always loved these guys from the first moment I heard them.

They took away Ringo's Drums?

Things that make the song untouchable: the bass line the drums the rhythm guitars the lick that ties whole song together back up vocals lead vocals

Look closely enough you can see Paul still has broken tooth from his moped accident

Paul with his chipped tooth, and Ringo looking bored... 😜

Pure genius. The Greatest Band Of All Time. ❤️

What a classic, punchy single! Stunning B side also
