Which Beatles songs have the best harmonies?

Gostamos de Beatles também pelas harmonias vocais. Quase sempre elas estão lá (ainda que apenas em partes da música). No mínimo quase sempre são 3 mas há músicas em que há 9 linhas vocais (Because). Algumas das melhores são de facto estas:

2019-03: Carta de Lennon sobre 2 Virgins vai a leilão

Lennon furioso com o tratamento do álbum com capa "supostamente ofensiva" (como ele próprio diz):
https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/john-lennon-letter-yoko-ono-two-virgins-album-apple-emi-record-label-a8822261.html

Citando:
"Addressed to “Martin George of Rock Ink”, the auction house cites “noted Beatles expert” Perry Cox in affirming that the letter was sent to the late Beatles producer George Martin.

However, author Mark Lewisohn told The Times that he believes that Lennon was actually responding to the journalist Martin George, who wrote for “a magazine or a weekly underground newspaper called Ink”.

Referring to his and Ono’s 1968 album Two Virgins, Lennon writes: “Yoko and I got ‘Two Virgins’ out in spite of [which is underlined] being past owners of Apple. We made it in May and they f***ed us about till November! Then E. M. I. (who have the real control) wrote warning letters to all their puppets around the world telling them not handle it in any way (this after Sir Joe [Lockwood, chairman of EMI] had told us face to face that he would do ‘everything he could’ to help us with it – and asking us for autographed copies!!).

2019-02: The football teams!!!

Citando:
""Paul was (and maybe still is) definitely an Evertonian, as was his dad. He attended the 1968 FA Cup final - there is a photo of him outside Wembley," he wrote in the Guardian.

"His brother Mike is a massive Red - and part of his band The Scaffold's promo film for 'Thank You Very Much' was filmed in front of a packed Spion Kop at his behest."

John Lennon wasn't a football fan at all or into sports, according to Beatles historian Ray O'Brien. His dad, however, was a Liverpool supporter and it was on his suggestion that they include former Reds great Albert Stubbins on the album cover of Sgt. Pepper as the only football figure.

Moreover, another ex-Liverpool footballer Sir Matt Busby – who spent five years at Anfield before becoming Manchester United manager –  is name-checked by Lennon on the Beatles’ song "Dig It"."

2019-02: Sobre Pepperland...

... Um espectáculo inspirado nos Beatles e no Sgt. Pepper's:
https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2019/feb/27/pepperland-beatles-sgt-pepper-dance-mark-morris-ethan-iverson-uk-tour-interview

Citando:
"Pepperland, which premiered at Liverpool’s Sgt Pepper at 50 festival in 2017, is a collaboration between choreographer Mark Morris and composer Ethan Iverson – and one of many productions to have been inspired by the Fab Four. When I meet the pair, on the eve of the show’s UK and Ireland tour, I ask if they ever saw the 1978 Sgt Pepper film starring the Bee Gees and Peter Frampton as the one and only Mr Billy Shears. “Oh my God, that’s the worst thing in the world,” says Morris with mock horror. How about Julie Taymor’s Beatles fantasia Across the Universe? “It. Is. A. Nightmare,” he declares, drawing out the last word. Then, of course, there’s the hit Vegas show Love, created – Morris grimaces – by “Cirque du fucking Soleil”."

1971-10: John Lennon e Yoko Ono na TV

The TV show:

Citando:
"

John Lennon and Yoko Ono found themselves in some curious positions with the pursuit of their art. Whether it’s in front of the world’s news naked in their bed or screaming into microphones to try and make music, the pair weren’t shy about sharing. So when they were offered the opportunity to take over an hour of television on TV station WNET they jumped at the chance.

The station opened its doors on October 14, 1971 to John and Yoko and gave it’s broadcast to Yoko Ono, John Lennon, and Jonas Mekas’ performance of excerpts from Ono’s “Of a Grapefruit in the World of Park.” The curious performance offers a glimpse into the working mind of John and Yoko. It’s a strange and liberating place to be."

2019-02: Um filme sobre o mundo sem os Beatles?

Não. Um filme com o Ed Sheeran em Liverpool, parece-me:

"Novo filme de Danny Boyle, realizador de "Quem Quer Ser Bilionário", é sobre um mundo onde apenas uma pessoa sabe quem é o grupo de Liverpool. Ed Sheeran é um dos atores, com um papel relevante como si próprio."

2019-02: Mercedes de George Harrison...

... vai a leilão no Catawiki:
https://www.motor24.pt/sites/jornal-dos-classicos/o-mercedes-benz-de-george-harrison-dos-beatles/

Citando:
"O coupé vermelho metalizado esteve em posse da família Harrison durante quase duas décadas, primeiro registado no nome de Harold Heargraves Harrison, pai de George. Em 1979 passou para as mãos do guitarrista dos The Beatles que o manteve em sua posse até 1981 e por fim foi propriedade do seu primo Paul Harrison.

Em Agosto de 1989, a Christie’s levou o Mercedes-Benz a leilão e mesmo foi adquirido a um empresário discográfico de Londres. Passado apenas um ano o automóvel chegou a Barcelona para ser leiloado de novo na Feria del Disco del Coleccionista. Durante o leilão não recebeu qualquer licitação e o dono de uma importante loja de discos pagou o valor mínimo de reserva e juntou-o à sua colecção particular, na qual permaneceu quase trinta anos."

2019-02: As discussões em Let it be

Citando:
"We'll be faced with a crisis,' Paul frets.

'When I'm up against the wall, Paul, you'll find me at my best. I think I've got Sunday off,' says John.

'I hope you can deliver.'

'I hope was a little rock and roller, Sammy with his mammy,' mocks John, falling into word play.

There was nothing more that Paul could say.

'I think we've been very negative since Mr Epstein passed away,' Paul reflected, probably to director Michael Lindsay-Hogg, unaware that he was being recorded. 'We probably do need a central daddy figure to say, 'Come on. It's nine o'clock. Leave the girls at home.' '

But John wasn't going to leave his new girl at home. So, Paul was walking on eggshells, acutely aware of what might happen if he, or the others, complained too loudly.

'There are only two things to do,' we hear him reasoning. 'One is to fight and to get The Beatles back to being four people without Yoko, and to ask her to sit down at board meetings. The other is just to accept that she's there, because there is no way that John is going to split with Yoko for our sakes. He's going overboard. He always goes overboard.

'If it came to the push between Yoko and The Beatles it would be John for Yoko. John would just say to us: 'Okay. I'll see you then.' And we're not wanting that to happen.'"
