Here you can find for your enjoyment a complete lesson on the guitar and bass parts of one of the most famous tunes by The Beatles: Youve Got to Hide Your Love Away.\r
\r
OVERVIEW \r
The problem we encounter while trying to figure out how the Beatles played Youve got to hide your love away, and the reason why youll find very few material on it on the web, is that the original basetrack is mixed in mono except for a few percussions and one guitar intervent in the chorus and this makes it almost impossible to distinguish what the Beatles really played here.\r
\r
It took me about one month and a half indeed to figure out the which, where, what and when of how the song was played and even if I do not claim this to be 100% perfect, I think I got very very near to the point here :).\r
I had to make a heavy use of a nice software called Transcribe to slower the song and equalizing it, trying to isolate the different instruments parts the best I could. \r
\r
I then had to record lots of different MONO versions of the song, in different mixing versions and compare the groove, bar by bar, to the original to understand if the reproduction was correct. The mess here was the bass but we will talk about this later. Please consider a few things: first of all I only covered one of each parts to make the video shorter. Also note that the original song was probably slowered down a bit before John sang it, in f Youve got to hide your love away is played in the key of G but it results to be about half of a half step down than the correct G.\r
\r
This probably also contributes to reproduce the amazing and in a certain way confused, groove we hear in the record. Please also note that me too I slowered the tempo a bit for you to be able to better understand the video details of what I am playing. I figured out a bit rate of 185 bpm for the original song.\r
\r
THE GUITARS PARTS\r
In Youve got to hide your love away we have basically two different blocks/pattern of guitars playing, each one composed by a classical guitar (Ramirez A1?) and by the 12 strings (Framus Hootenanny), this last one stringed as I explained in the Help! guitar lesson video. \r
\r
Each block of two guitars is playing simultaneously the same pattern (ually double tracking it). So we have the first block playing a normal accompaniment at unison. The chords are explained in the dedicated video (Part 2). They are pretty simple and you just have to take care of two things here:\r
1) the rhythm of the plucking,\r
2) In these two guitars performance basically only the last four strings are played in the verse\r
3) then you have a third guitar coming in only in the chorus and doubling the singing line which low E string is detune to a D.\r
\r
The second block of guitars also plays the same pattern and do an unusual but really brilliant arrangement which purpose is to enhance the rhythm of the song and underline a decise cadence in the verse. ta-tata ta-tata. \r
\r
THE BASS PART\r
The bass part (I used one of our Tuscany Spider dobro resophonic basses here) was the hardest one and this is the cause why YHGTHYLA was a total mistery until today (will this ever be really revealed entirely? ;). It happens here that some of the notes Pauls playing are in the same tuning range of the classical guitar lower notes which causes some weird harmonical interions between the two instruments, which fooled me for long and broght me to think that Paul was playing some kind of two notes chords here, which indeed he wasnt.\r
\r
Hes indeed playing a pretty simple line but again his genius and creativity brought him to stay again away from the fundamental when he plays a C where the guitars play the first F. He also plucks the strings in two different ways along the song. See Part 2 video for a demo of this.\r
\r
THE PERCUSSIONS\r
The percussions are another chapter. \r
What I hear in the verse is:\r
1) a continuous brushes pattern as a filler,\r
2) a more rhythmical brushes pattern, \r
3) a tambourine (from the 3rd verse on) which I choosed to cover here.\r
In the chorus a marakas comes in (which I didnt have so I used the brushes once again and edited them to sound like a shaker) and a snare is also added.\r
So I think thats all for now. Just write me if you have more questions or comments! Thanks!\r
