The Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows 50 minute version

Andrew Liles has done a 50 minute version of Tomorrow Never Knows for the song's 50th anniversary. I like his solo stuff and am a big fan of Nurse With Wound and Current 93 so this piqued my interest - currently 21 minutes in and it's pretty good. Exactly the sort of song that benefits from this kind of treatment and it's been pieced together really well.

even in the snoopgaze4 galaxy of weed planets there is not enough pot to make this work

I know I'm not the only person here to have a love for The Beatles and Revolver. Nice find. I'm past the three minute mark and waiting for shit to really kick off.

Fifteen minutes - here we fucking go!

Yeah this is sick! Thanks for sharing

Ive actually been listening to a ton of Revolver recently and Tomorrow Never knows has to be one of the most criminally-too-short tracks in existence. Which is part of its power frankly, that it can pull you so deep into its headspace in under three minutes. But this version is a treat.

loving those sitar drones, nice find

muchos appreciados

best advice is to listen to everything you can by Andrew Liles, 1 of Britain's finest sound explorers with relentlessly high quality works

this is fuckin sweet

Ohh shit my favorite Beatles song! Ill listen to this tomorrow at work

was skeptical at first but this turned out to be really good

It's crazy how many subgenres the Beatles invented

You like shoegaze, m9?

Most famous for their invention of heat/nightcore

Ringo invented black metal and was the first Beatle to burn a church. #biggerthanjesus

the beatles invented music in general. the concept of sound didn't exist until they thought it up

the Beatles invented the night/heat controversy

this is the only Beatles song that i choose to like

Wow, I forgot WATMM was so anti-Beatles

Stream link is dead, any other sources?

It's not so much WATMM being anti-Beatles as the claim that they "invented many genres" being ridiculous

The Beatles were responsible for a lot of firsts:

First music video (creative use of video in place of personal appearance)

First intentional use of feedback on record

First use of flange/ADT (invented for the Beatles, in fact)

First use of looping in pop music

First use of "stack" amps (invented for the Beatles, in fact)

Etc etc etc etc

So it's not really a stretch that they were the first to do certain *stylistic* things as well

this is all true.

this still does not make me want to listen to a 50 minute version of tomorrow never knows that someone who is not the beatles made

Me neither

Maybe not. I largely listened because Andrew Liles made it and Andrew Liles is fucking great.

I also think everything The Beatles did from Rubber Soul through to Abbey Road is astonishingly good.
