From a business aspect, they had their first version of Revolution on the White Album and their producer George Martin suggested it would be a great single if it was rocked up. The album version is slow, laid back, and embellished with a lavish horn section. Quite a bit different from what most people think of when they hear the song. So since John said they were trying to say something about a peaceful Revolution in a world with so much violent revolutions going on at the time, he and Paul came up with the kicked up tempo and making all the guitars distorted. The result, along with Helter Skelter on the album, is the beginnings of hard rock/heavy metal.

This is a mixture of the single version (45 rpm 7-inch b-side of 'Hey Jude') and the album (The Beatles 'White Album'). The instrumentals were recorded in the studio (from the single version) but they sang the vocals live for a television show, with lyrical changes coming from the album version. One of the most powerful Beatles songs for sure. The guitars and drums of songs like 'Revolution' and 'Helter Skelter' went right through the bones... and then suddenly 'Blackbird' or 'In My Life' pops up. Awesome versatile band.

In the 60s, during the "Revolution," the vast vast majority of protesters (as it is today) wanted a peaceful solution to war, civil rights, etc. There were groups like SDS who wanted a more violent solution. The Beatles leamed towards a peaceful revolution (solution) and to look within yourself to be a better personal solution. " better free your minds instead." If we had hatred and violence in our hearts, we canot be a solution, and we are prisoners of our own minds. As the Moddy Blues wrote, "Revolution never won; it's just another form of gun to do again what they have done ...". Great song, and thanks for choosing it today.

This song is still strangely applicable. "If you go carry pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow." A generation after WW2, the west was still fighting against some of those powers. The Soviets had the Berlin Wall in Germany and the Iron Curtain everywhere else. Cuba had just been turned communist. China was still killing their own people by the millions, engaged at this point in a "Cultural Revolution," and in general communism was stomping around the world killing people. Naturally, numerous people in the west were sympathetic to the communists, and this was the Beatles speaking out against that.

Only the vocals are live. They're singing to the studio backing track (note the piano and no piano player). The studio version is different to this "performance" in that the studio version doesn't include the "Bom-sho-be-do-wop" backing vocals, nor the ambiguity of John singing "You can count me out - in!" Both of which were in the slower album version of the song, "Revolution 1" but not on the single version.

After the hippie period, the Beatles decided that rock and roll had been the revolution after all. And where they went everyone was sure to follow. The wider trend in amplification had delivered pay gold for the likes of Cream and was about to turn the likes of Led Zeppelin et al into world-beaters. But the fab four were still the market leaders at this point. Even if the band itself was not long for this world.
