Description

THE BEATLES-RUBBER SOUL TYPE SINGLE LP-MONO LABEL/PRESSING INFO

PARLOPHONE YELLOW & BLACK. It is well documented that shortly after release it was realised that the wrong masters had been used and it was deemed that the sound quality was inferior,(known colloquially as the "Loud Cut this pess has the matrix numbers ending -1) and a "proper" pressing was hurriedly introduced to rectify this. But being a record company in the heyday of the 60's EMI managed to screw this up and there are a batch in existence that have the new corrected mix on one side and the original loud cut on the other and this one of those with side 2 being pressed with the matrix number XEX 580-1 and the side 1 with the corrected matrix of XEX 579-4

  DETAILS

While the Beatles still largely stuck to love songs on Rubber Soul, the lyrics represented a quantum leap in terms of thoughtfulness, maturity, and complex ambiguities. Musically, too, it was a substantial leap forward, with intricate folk-rock arrangements that reflected the increasing influence of Dylan and the Byrds. The group and George Martin were also beginning to expand the conventional instrumental parameters of the rock group, using a sitar on "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)," Greek-like guitar lines on "Michelle" and "Girl," fuzz bass on "Think for Yourself," and a piano made to sound like a harpsichord on the instrumental break of "In My Life." While John and Paul were beginning to carve separate songwriting identities at this point, the album is full of great tunes, from "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)" and "Michelle" to "Girl," "I'm Looking Through You," "You Won't See Me," "Drive My Car," and "Nowhere Man" (the last of which was the first Beatle song to move beyond romantic themes entirely). George Harrison was also developing into a fine songwriter with his two contributions, "Think for Yourself" and the Byrds-ish "If I Needed Someone."
