Paperback Writer
"Paperback Writer" is a 1966 song recorded and released by the Beatles. The song was released as the A-side of their eleventh single. The single reached number one in the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, West Germany, Australia, New Zealand, and Norway. On the US Billboard Hot 100, the song reached number one for two non-consecutive weeks before being interrupted by Frank Sinatra's "Strangers in the Night". The track was recorded between 13 and 14 April 1966. "Paperback Writer" is marked by the boosted bass guitar throughout, partly in response to Lennon demanding to know why the bass on a certain Wilson Pickett record far exceeded that on any Beatles records. This changed with the "Paperback Writer" single. "'Paperback Writer' was the first time the bass sound had been heard in all its excitement," said Beatles' engineer Geoff Emerick in Mark Lewisohn's book 'The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions'. "Paul played a different bass, a Rickeinbacher. Then we boosted it further by using a loudspeaker as a microphone. We positioned it directly in front of the bass speaker, and the moving diaphragm of the second speaker made the electric current." The background vocal harmonies at the beginning of the third chorus are provided by Lennon and Harrison, who sing the title of the French nursery rhyme "Frere Jacque" in several slow incantations. The song's lyrics are in the form of a letter from an aspiring author addressed to a publisher. The author badly needs a job and has written a paperback book based on a book by a "man named Lear." This is a reference to the Victorian painter Edward Lear, who wrote nonsense poems and songs of which Lennon was very fond (though Lear never wrote novels).
