Hi YouTubers, Keith Smart here.
Have you ever wondered what the opening chord is
to A Hard Day's Night?
_ Randy Backman recently had access to the original
master tapes from A Hard Day's Night and he discovered the three key components
of the amazing chord.
John Lennon on his Rickenbacker 325 _ [G] played [A] Dsus4, [B]
that's a
normal D [G] chord with a G on the top E string.
_ I haven't got a Rickenbacker [N] 325
so I'm playing it on this Fender Telecaster.
So this is the first chord.
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I'm just going straight into a small studio here, no effects just a tiny bit
of reverb.
_ _ _ [N] So the first part of the chord to A Hard Day's Night was John playing
_ Dsus4 on his Rickenbacker.
Next we have Paul [B] McCartney on a Hofner
violin bass _ [F] playing the note D.
I haven't got a Hofner violin bass so I'm
playing on a [G] Burns New Sonic bass.
So here's Paul's [D] bit. _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] John Lennon played
_ Dsus4 on his Rickenbacker 325.
_ Paul played the note of D on his Hofner
violin bass and George Harrison on a 360 12-string played the chord [F] of F.
_ _ He
added a G note on the top E _ _ and he also added a G [N] on the bottom E.
So this is
George's part.
[C] _
_ So _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] I've recorded those three components let's hear what they
sound like together.
