And Your Bird Can Drive My Car

"And Your Bird Can Sing" was released on the 1966 album Revolver in the UK and on Yesterday...and Today in the U.S. The song was written by John Lennon. Lennon was later dismissive of the song, as he was of many of his compositions at the time, referring to it as "another of my throwaways...fancy paper around an empty box". Many composers would kill their bird for a throwaway of this quality; still, the lyrics are jibbersih and rather repetitive.The double-tracked guitar solo rates in at #69 on the "100 Greatest Guitar Solos" list done by Rolling Stone magazine. Not high enough to include the solo in this remix."Drive My Car" is written by McCartney, and first released by The Beatles on the UK version of the 1965 album Rubber Soul; it also appeared in the US on the Yesterday and Today collection. To liven things up, we mashed it he 2 above tracks. Almost anything will mash with Drive My car (it's just 2 chords), but this mash works out remarkably well. Did Lennon still have Drive My car in his ears whemn he wrote And You Bird ? Anyway, And Your Bird seems a long way back form his other tracks on Revolver, such as Tomorow Never Knows (the first track they recorded after Rubber Soul, which featured Drive My Car)."Drive My Car" has more bottom (bass) than any previous Beatles recording, mimicking the bass-heavy sound generated in Redding's Memphis studio, and here we fattened its bottom even further. So hold on to your earplugs !
