Pepper\u003c\/em\u003e at the head of the class, but it was \u003cem\u003eRevolver\u003c\/em\u003e that truly signalled the Beatles' sea change from a functional band to a studio-based ensemble. These changes began before \u003cem\u003eRubber Soul\u003c\/em\u003e but came to fruition on \u003cem\u003eRevolver\u003c\/em\u003e, which took an astonishing 300 hours to produce, far more than any rock record before it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe making of \u003cem\u003eRevolver\u003c\/em\u003e—hunkered down in Abbey Road with George Martin—is in itself a great Beatles story, but would be nothing if the results weren't so impactful. More than even \u003cem\u003eSgt. Pepper\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003ePet Sounds\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eRevolver\u003c\/em\u003e fed directly into the rock 'n' roll zeitgeist, and its influence could be heard everywhere, from the psychedelic San Francisco sound (Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead) to the first wave of post-blues hard rock (Sabbath, Zeppelin), through movie soundtracks and pretty much everything that followed it, including every generation of guitar-based pop music and even heavy metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMore than any record before or after, \u003cem\u003eRevolver\u003c\/em\u003e was the game-changer, and this is, finally, the detailed telling of its storied recording and enormous impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47597925105900,"sku":"9781617130090","price":70.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/61e54cb2b6ff9ad838108b6258130737.jpg?v=1778027804","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/revolver-by-robert-rodriguez-9781617130090","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
