McCartney Times

Here’s a handy Facebook-based video we recently stumbled upon. It’s a three-screen clip that shows the magic of “And Your Bird Can Sing,” a 1966 track that always ranks as one the Beatles’ best “guitar songs.” In fact, Guitar World ranked it at Number 7 when we published “The Fab 50: The Beatles’ 50 Greatest Guitar Moments” a few years ago.This middle-period Beatles gem from Revolver, written primarily by John Lennon, features George Harrison and Paul McCartney on impeccably crafted and performed harmony-lead guitar melodies, a pop-rock arranging approach that was still in its infancy in 1966. (It would later be employed extensively in the southern rock genre by bands such as the Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd as well as hard rock and metal acts like Thin Lizzy, Boston and Iron Maiden.)
