Beatles Day Tripper Songfacts The Beatles recorded ’Day Tripper’ at their first session after completing ’Drive My Car’. The ’Day Tripper’ session took place at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios) in London on 16 October 1965. The Beatles rehearsed Day Tripper for much of the afternoon before taping the basic track. The line-up for Day Tripper was John Lennon and George Harrison on rhythm and lead guitar, respectively, Paul McCartney on bass and Ringo Starr on drums. Lennon and McCartney overdubbed lead vocals, with McCartney the more prominent singer in the verses’ first and third lines, and Harrison added a harmony vocal over the choruses and the instrumental bridge. Starr overdubbed the tambourine. Music journalist Rob Chapman views the guitar interplay on “Day Tripper“ as an example of the Beatles’ “baroque sonata“ approach to musical arrangements. Harrison played the bridge’s rising scale using a guitar volume-pedal effect, and overdubbed a second lead guitar part over the same section. Paluzzi Guitar The objective of the Paluzzi Guitar video series is to help establish a foundation of guitar fundamentals by applying various playing techniques (rhythm, fingerstyle, and soloing) to various styles of music. The more playing styles and techniques a guitarist can learn, the more diverse and self-sufficient a guitarist will become. The Creative Guitarist Method Series was written and designed by Kevin J.
