Entwistle's track there sounds objectively terrible - sloppy, rough, and a little out of tune I think. Yet the final product sounds great, and his part does exactly what it needs to! |

I'd bet many of us came up with the goal of playing as cleanly as possible. Thankfully I realized that that might notbe the way to cut through a wall of sound a long time ago.  |

"If we stopped a song every time I made a mistake we'd be playing in f*****g Morse code."
I don't know if it's true or not, but I like it anyway. |

| | | That was a great listen. I agree with the "perfect sloppiness," as it were. I've listened to a bunch of McCartney isolated tracks and while I wouldn't compare his style with Entwistle's, I got the same sense of "wow, that sounds great in the mix, but not so great on its own." Just as here, it's just what the song needed.
I think the key to so many great bands were their ability to forge ahead individually yet they contained this rare brand of glue that somehow made them tight with each other. Certainly Ent was the glue in the Who  . You could say the same for John Paul Jones and even RIngo Starr. While he's not generally considered to be a great drummer, he was able to reel in some pretty big egos by playing imperfect time perfectly. The result, like we have here, is a song that sounds just right even if the individual parts might sound questionable. |
