Dear James,
It was 40 degrees cee here yesterday so naturally today we´re about to have a big old storm. So I've smoked an 11am loogie and am now watching Beatles records. Such is the creative process.
I like these videos for the interesting shots they do, quite different to a modern pop video. Ringo is a killer in both videos, sitting around wondering where his drumkit is and then going for a wander in the grass. Oh, Ringo.
I love how this single is so representative of the crossover from Rubber Soul to Revolver, and you could say the same for We Can Work It Out/Day Tripper as the crossover between Help and Rubber Soul. It shows also that Paul got turned on to acid a year later than John and George.
There was a lengthy pause there while I read Revolution in the Head. Did you know, Got to Get You Into My Life was said by Lennon to refer to McCartney's belated first acid trip, something which McCartney later confirmed?
Hang on, though. This video was made for the Ed Sullivan show. Why make two videos of the same song?
