The impact of ‘Tomorrow Never Knows’ is about as large as sound appearing in movies and TV turning into colour. It’s the song that booted the doors open for rock music.
A swirling, technicolour, brain melter of a track, it used tape loops and brilliant imagination to usher in The Beatles psychedelic period, and even now, is a staggering piece of work.
Just to hammer home what a technological marvel it was, and how inventive the group were, some nice lads have remade the track in the same way The Beatles did.
It’s easy to forget this was all made with tape on pretty primitive equipment, so this wonderful video shows you how it was done in a practical way.
Get on this.
