Album: Not included on an original Beatles album; released as the A-side of a single
Year: 1964
Written by: Lennon & McCartney
That electronic sound you hear at the beginning of this classic Beatles tune is the first time that feedback was included on a rock record. John had accidentally created some feedback in the studio and he liked the way it sounded. "John figured out how to do it. You hit the A (string) and get it buzzing by the amp," George said. Because the Beatles always liked to try new things, they decided to put this cool sound on the record.
I Feel Fine is a riff-based pop song. John plays the riff on an acoustic Gibson guitar, which is amplified to make it sound electric. George mirrors John's riff on his Gretsch Tennessean. John sings lead vocal, with Paul and George joining him in some of the smoothest, most beautiful, and most classic Beatles harmonies ever.
I Feel Fine was the sixth Beatles single in a row to hit #1 on the American charts in 1964 – quite a phenomenal achievement. It is also a great rock song. Enjoy!
