Sometimes, the ones that are meaningless can be the most fun to listen to.

Doesn’t sound like Lennon’s style at all. Actually, it sounds very McCartney, though George could pull it off as well.

The rock band game has George playing. It had to be approved by Paul, Ringo, Olivia, and Yoko. If John had played the solo, there is no way Yoko would’ve allowed them to have George play it for the game.

the solo was an overdub, the cameras weren’t rolling at that point

This is one song that felt like a rediscovered gem to me, rarely played (and I hadn’t heard!) before the Beatles channel on XM recently played it a lot. But I just now loved watching the video of them recording it, such a rare thing of beauty to watch them play it and have fun that late in their run together. You only hear about the frictions in ’69 on and only visually tend to think of the rooftop concert from the end of the Beatles, but seeing them in early ’68 (with almost no facial hair) and joking around is really magical. Like finding an old home movie of your parents when they were young and vibrant and lovingly raising small kids. I didn’t think the Beatles could affect me in a new way at this point, but this did, thanks!

Shouldn’t Paul be credited for “barks”?

That was definitely George playing the solo. I’ve never understood why the film doesn’t show him playing it, or John with his hands on the piano (except for about a second). Did the film crew go to lunch when the solo was recorded?

Geoff Emerick remembers Harrison playing the solo, and claims it was one of the few times in the recording studio that George “nailed” a solo so quickly. Although his book has some errors, this seems to be a quite specific memory. (I always thought it was McCartney).

Love John’s chunky guitar solo. You can always tell Lennon’s distinctive style. He always worked chunky chords into his solo’s. Like in “You Can’t Do That” from the “Hard Day’s Night Album”. When asked if he remembered who played what on the final guitar duel on “Abbey Road” McCartney couldn’t distinguish between his part and George’s, but he remembered John’s: “John plays the stuff on the low strings. The funky stuff”. He had a really grungy sound. And it’s on display on “Hey, Bulldog”.

Strong riff, good vocals, really nice rock vibe. It’s catchy, the kind of tune that sticks in your head. Would have made a superb single, with “It’s All Too Much” as the B-side.
I’m surprised there are so few comments on this one..

First time I listened to this song, I was completely into it. The mood, the instruments, specially that great walking bass line, but above all, John’s voice and melody of the lyrics. A great rock song.

You’re talking about Across the Universe, I think.
