Iteration and fearless experimentation were always Beatles hallmarks, but Revolver found the band accelerating headfirst into innovation. That the band steered Yellow Submarine from morose folk trifle to boisterous stoner singalong seems improbable, but the tapes don’t lie: through a combination of focused acoustic woodshedding and whimsical studio risks, the band arrived at the more familiar, upbeat Yellow Submarine. The explosion sound made it onto the final recording of 'Tragedy' and it's become a little known secret that it was actually Barry who made the original sound effect.Ĭupping his hands over the microphone and making an explosion sound with his mouth, Barry giggles as he attempts to do it at exactly the right time in the song, before getting it right on his last go.A bonus disc on the new expanded, remixed and remastered box set of 1966’s Revolver offers an even more transformative experience: a jaw-dropping sequence of Yellow Submarine work tapes traces the song’s evolution from a fragile, sad wisp sung by John Lennon to its later iteration as a Ringo Starr-directed psych-pop goof. The video of the trio shows the brothers singing and playing the melody of 'Tragedy' before all three decide they need the sound effect of an 'explosion'.
