The Beatles changed everything—the sound of music, the fashion, the politics, even the idea of what a band could be—and they did it across a span of just seven years. To dig into the guitar playing of John, Paul, and George, we called on Jimmy Vivino, longtime member of Conan O'Brien's house band and a guy who's done the deep forensic work of recreating later-period Beatles material with the Fab Faux. Jimmy walks us through the J-160E rhythm parts, the mysteries of George's Leslie tones, Paul's pre-bend signature, the unusual tuning behind "Rain," and the ongoing quest to recreate one of John's nastiest fuzz tones in a pedal. Along the way, we get into the Bernard Purdie rumor, the case for Revolver as the ultimate guitar-player's Beatles record, and why George turns out to be the coolest one of all.Sponsored by Rocky Mountain Slide Company: https://rockymountainslides.com/
