Paul Mc Cartney Yellow Submarine, arr. Byron Fogo

Andrey Shilov plays the great song from The Beatles Yellow Submarine written bt Paul McCartney and arranged for guitar by Byron Fogo. McCartney was living in Jane Asher s parents house when he found the inspiration for the song: I was laying in bed in the Ashers garret. .. I was thinking of it as a song for Ringo, which it eventually turned out to be, so I wrote it as not too rangey in the vocal, then started making a story, sort of an ancient mariner, telling the young kids where he d lived. It was pretty much my song as I recall. .. I think John helped out. The lyrics got more and more obscure as it goes on, but the chorus, melody and verses are mine. The song began as being about different coloured submarines, but evolved to include only a yellow one. In 1980, Lennon talked about the song: Yellow Submarine is Paul s baby. Donovan helped with the lyrics. I helped with the lyrics too. We virtually made the track come alive in the studio, but based on Paul s inspiration. Paul s idea. Paul s title.
