The Beatles Vol. 3

The Beatles Vol. 3 de 1965, si en algo se caracterizaba México en los sesentas era en lo original de los trabajos musicales, podemos verlo en tantas canciones del ingles al español de varios interpretes que se hicieron las llamadas “Leyendas del Rock” en nuestro país, pero también se reflejaba en los títulos de The Beatles como se ve en este otro álbum recopilatorio de materiales de los Lp’s Ingleses Please Please Me, With The Beatles y acompletado ya con el tercer material del cuarteto de Liverpool en tierras Britanicas el A Hard Day’s Night, que lleva para la historia el Nombre The Beatles Vol. 3.

Nuevamente encontramos dos ediciones de este disco una por la marca Musart que es en versiones mono, con una portada única en todo el mundo, podemos ver una fotografía del cuarteto en escenario, con las letras de Beatles en amarillo en la parte superior, mientas que en el anverso tres fotografías de los Fab, dos en escenario y otra con la banda posando para la fotografía. Al igual que los otros Lp’s los títulos de las canciones vienen en español.


EMI Capitol saca una edición con mezcla en Estereo, con una portada haciendo una breve mezcla del ya a la venta en Inglaterra A Hard Day’s Night, con una sola fotografía que se repetía en 18 ocaciones empezando con el titulo Vol. 3 en letras pequeñas arribita del “the Beatles” enletras rojas y en minúsculas y seguido de la primera de estas repeticiones de la fotografía en blanco y negro, debajo de esto se ve una hilera de cinco repeticiones de la imagen en blanco y negro, abajo dos a color y seguido de los títulos de las canciones en español, para terminar con dos hileras mas de cinco imágenes cada una de la foto en blanco y negro, la parte trasera del cartón es el titulo del disco en letras grandes y una fotografía del cuarteto en algún aeropuerto, tomados sorpresivamente y debajo de esta los títulos de las canciones.


Las etiquetas por parte de Musart es la de arcoíris mientras que EMI sacaba nuevamente la verde; el contenido del disco son 12 temas de tres Lp’s Ingleses, y como era un homenaje de The Beatles y daban a conocer a través de sus interpretaciones de sus ídolos este material tenia siete covers de otros artistas como Drapkin (El Diablo en su Corazón), Bradford-Gordy (Dinero –Es lo que quiero-), Arthur Alexander (Ana –Ve a Él-), Goffin-King (Cadenas), Wilson (Hasta que Llegaste), Holly (Por Favor Señor Cartero), Robinson (Me Has Atrapado), mas cinco de Lennon McCartney conformadas con Cuatro de John (Miseria, No Puedes Hacer Eso, Hay Un Lugar, Todo lo Que Tengo que Hacer) y una de Paul (No Puedo Comprar Mi Amor).

Paul:Bajo y Segunda Voz
George:Guitarra Solista y Segunda Voz

Cantada por primera vez por Barrat Strong en 1959, esta es una maravillosa versión de los Beatles demostrando que podían ser tan buenos cantando las canciones ajenas como lo eran con las propias.

Now give me money (that's what I want)
That's what I want (that's what I want)

Canción de Arthur Alexander que el mismo había grabado el año anteriora la versión que The Beatles grabarón para el Please Please Me.

Anna,
You come and ask me girl,
To set you free girl,
You say he loves you more than me,
So I will set you free,
Go with him.
Go with him.
Anna,
girl before you go now,
I want you to know, now,
That I still love you so,
but if he loves you more,
Go with him.
All of my life,
I've been searching for a girl
To love me like I love you.
But every girl I've ever had,
Breaks my heart and leaves my sad.
What am I, what am I supposed to do.
Anna,
Just one more thing, girl.
You give back your ring to me, and I will set you free,
go with him.

Primera aparición en el álbum Please Please Me de la Armónica de John. Armonías de tres voces y la primera voz para George.

Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains.
And they ain't the kind,
that you can see.
Ooh these chains of love, got a hold on me, yeah.
Chains, well I can't break away from these chains.
Can't run around, 'cause I'm not free.
Ooh, these chains of love won't let me be, yeah.
I wanna tell you, pretty baby,
I think you're fine.
I'd like to love you,
But, darling, I'm imprisoned by these Chains,
my baby's got me locked up in chains,
and they ain't the kind,
that you can see,
Ooh, these chains of love got a hold on me.
Please believe me when I tell you,
Your lips are sweet.
I'd like to kiss them,
But I can't break away from all of these Chains,
my baby's got me locked up in chains.
And they ain't the kind,
that you can see.
Ooh, these chains of love got a hold on me, yeah.
Chains, chains of love, chains of love (fade)

05-Misery
Lennon
John: Guitarra rítmica y Voz
Paul:Bajo y Voz
George:Guitarra solista
Ringo:Batería

Misery se escribió para el álbum Please Please Me, entre bastidores en el King's Hall, en Glebe Street, Stoke on Trent el 26 de Enero de 1963. La canción estaba previsto que fuera para Helen Shapiro.

The world is treating me bad misery.
I'm the kind of guy,
Who never used to cry,
The world is treating me bad, misery.
I've lost her now for sure,
I won't see her no more,
It's gonna be a drag in misery.
I'll remember all the little things we've done
Can't she see she'll always be the only one, only one.
Send her back to me,
'Cause everyone can see
Without her I will be in misery
I'll remember all the little things we've done.
She'll remember and she'll miss her only one, lonely one.
Send her back to me,
'Cause everyone can see,
Without her I will be in misery
In misery,
My misery,


06-You Can't Do That
Lennon
John:Guitarra Solista y Voz
Paul:Bajo y Segunda Voz
George:Guitarra de 12 cuerdas y Segunda Voz
Ringo:Batería, Cencerro y Bongos

Aunque John admitió que fue inspirado por Wilson Pickett, la canción que fue la cara B de Can't Buy Me Love tiene una personalidad propia. La canción presenció por primera vez a George tocando su nueva guitarra de 12 cuerdas, mientras que John pasaba a tocar la guitarra solista con su Rickenbacker. Y es que como el mismo dijo a Melody Maker "encuentro bastante pesado tocar siempre la guitarra rítmica" (I find it quite a drag, to play rythmic guitar all the time)

I got something to say that might cause you pain,
if I catch you talking to that boy again,
I'm gonna let you down,
and leave you flat.
Because I told you before, oh,
you can't do that.
Well it's the second time I've caught you talking to him,
do I have to tell you one more time I think it's a sin?
I think I'll let you down, and leave you flat.
(gonna let you down and leave you flat)
Because I've told you before, oh,
you can't do that.
Everybody's green,
'cause I'm the one, who won your love.
But if it's seen,
you're talking that way,
they'd laugh in my face.
So please listen to me if you wanna stay mine,
I can't help my feelings, I'll go out of my mind.
I know I'll let you down,
and leave you flat.
(gonna let you down and leave you flat)
Because I've told you before, oh,
you can't do that.

07-There's a place
Lennon
John:Guitarra rítmica, Armónica y Voz
Paul:Bajo y Voces
George:Guitarra solista
Ringo:Batería

Este es un intento temprano de John de escribir sobre el aislamiento y probablemente sobre si mismo. La idea produciría mas tarde probablemente las mejores canciones de John más adelante.

There is a place,
Where I can go,
When I feel low,
When I feel blue.
And it's my mind,
And there's no time when I'm alone.
I think of you,
And things you do,
Go 'round my head,
The things you said,
Like "I love only you."
In my mind there's no sorrow,
Don't you know that it's so.
There'll be no sad tomorrow,
Don't you know that it's so.
There is a place,
Where I can go,
When I feel low,
When I feel blue.
And it's my mind,
And there's no time when I'm alone.
There's a place...

08-All I've got to do
Lennon
John:Guitarra Rítmica y Voz
Paul:Bajo y Segunda Voz
George:Guitarra Solista
Ringo:Batería

John escribió esta canción en 1961, se supone que tratando de "hacer el Smokey Robinson". Curiosamente en el álbum Please Please Me que es donde se dio a conocer este material os Beatles (al igual que ene este Lp), hacen una versión de You Really got a Hold On Me, una canción de The Miracles, el grupo de Smokey Robinson. La canción se completó en una sola sesión.

Whenever I want you around, yeah.
All I gotta do,
Is call you on the phone,
And you'll come running home,
Yeah, that's all I gotta do.
And when I, I want to kiss you, yeah.
All I gotta do,
Is whisper in your ear
The words you long to hear,
And I'll be kissin' you.
Chorus:
And the same goes for me,
Whenever you want me at all.
I'll be here, yes I will, whenever you call.
You just gotta call on me, yeah,
You just gotta call on me.
And when I, I want to kiss you, yeah.
All I gotta do,
Is call you on the phone,
And you'll come running home,
Yeah, that's all I gotta do.
Chorus

09-Till There Was You
Wilson
John:Guitarra Acústica
Paul:Bajo y Voz
George:Guitarra Acústica
Ringo:Bongos

Canción para el musical The Music Man que los Beatles utilizaban en sus actuaciones para calmar a la gente un poco.

There were bells on a hill,
But I never heard them ringing.
No I never heard them at all
Till there was you.
There were birds in the sky,
But I never saw them winging.
No I never saw them at all
Till there was you.
Then there was music, and wonderful roses
They tell me,
in sweet fragrant meadows
of dawn,
and you.
There was love all around,
But I never heard it singing.
No I never heard it at all
Till there was you.

10-Please Mister Postman
Holly
John:Guitarra Rítmica y Voz
Paul:Bajo y Segunda Voz
George:Guitarra Solista y Segunda Voz
Ringo:Batería

Esta canción fue un éxito para The Marvelettes y era una de las favoritas de los Beatles en sus inicios. Otra excelente canción que los Beatles consiguieron llevar a la perfección. La voz de John está doblada. La canción se popularizó de nuevo en la banda sonora de la película Backbeat.

Wait, oh yes wait a minute mister postman
Wait, wait mister postman
Mister postman look and see
If you've got a letter in your bag for me,
I been waiting for such a long, long time
since I heard from that girl of mine.
There must be some word today
From my girlfriend so far away.
Please mister postman look and see
if there's a letter in your bag for for me
I been standing here and waiting mister postman,
So patiently
For just a card or just a letter,
Saying she's returning home to me.
So many days you passed me by,
See the tear standing in my eye.
You didn't stop to make me feel better,
By leaving me a card or a letter
You've got to wait a minute, wait a minute
wait
Check it and see, one more time for me
Deliver the letter, the sooner the better


11-You Really Got a Hold On Me
Robinson
John:Guitarra Rítmica y Voz
Paul:Bajo y Segunda Voz
George:Guitarra Solista y Voz
Ringo:Batería
George Martin: Piano

Grabada originalmente por The Miracles, John tenía aquí razones más que evidentes para hacer de Smokey Robinson. George canta una segunda voz que se alterna con la primera

I don't like you but I love you
seems that I'm always thinking of you
Oh, ho, ho, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
Baby...
I don't want you, but I need you
don't wanna kiss you, but I need to
Oh, ho, ho you treat me badly
I love you madly
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
Baby...
I love you and all I want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me...
Tighter...
Tighter... I want to leave you
don't wanna to stay here
Don't wanna spend another day here
Oh, ho, ho I wanna sit now..
I just can't quit now
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
Baby
I love you and all I want you to do is just
Hold me (please)
Hold me (squeeze)
Hold me.... Hold me
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me
(you really got a hold on me)


12-Can't Buy Me Love
McCartney
John:Guitarra Rítmica
Paul:Bajo y Voz
George:Guitarra Solista
Ringo:Batería

La canción fue editada en un principio como single el 20 de Marzo de 1964. Se grabó en París, mientras los Beatles tocaban en el teatro Olympia durante 18 días. Paul se sacó de la manga en ese periodo esta canción increible que se grabó en promera instancia en la habitación del hotel George V, con George Harrison en el cuarto de baño mientras los otros 3 Beatles tocaban. Al final George tiraba de la cadena apareciendo este curioso efecto en la grabación. Aunque los chicos querían que esta grabación fuera lanzada como single, George Martin de manera muy sensata les hizo ir al estudio. En tan solo una hora la canción cambió de la toma 1 que aparece en la Anthology I, a la versión final. La canción sonaba en la película mientras que los Beatles corrían bajando por la escalera de incendios de un teatro.

Can't buy me love, love
Can't buy me love
I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend
if it makes you feel alright
I'll get you anything my friend
if it makes you feel alright
'cause I don't care too much for money,

money can't buy me love
I'll give you all I've got to give
if you say you love me too
I may not have a lot to give
but what I got I'll give to you

For I don't care too much for money,
money can't buy me love
Can't buy me love, everybody tells me so
can't buy me love, no no no, no
Say you don't need no diamond ring
and I'll be satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of thing

that money just can't buy
For I don't care too much for money,
money can't buy me love.
