Paul's Keyboards

 

This shot at the organ, is from the movie HELP!

 

Pianos that were used in the studio were;

Bluthner, Challen, & Steinway

this photo is either from The Long & Winding Road or Let It Be both from the Get Back sessions.

Paul is behind a Challen piano in the

Hey Jude

performance from the David Frost show.

The beginning of Strawberry Fields Forever features Paul on the Melotron II.

 

This was an early sampler of sorts. Various recorded sounds on tape loops activated by a keyboard.

The voice selected on S.F.F. was flutes.

During the White Album sessions, the intro to

Bungalo Bill contains a classical guitar run, worthy of Segovia.

It has been said that this too was the Melotron II a single key!perhaps not played by Paul.

The Melotron pictured above still belongs to Paul.

During SPLHCB many different kinds of instruments were used. In Fixing A Hole Paul is playing the harpsichord

 

note the reverse colors to the keys and the fewer of them there are. The strings are plucked rather than struck by a felt hammer as on a piano, rendering that distinctive sound. It is considerably smaller than a piano and tends to favor the higher register.

The Clavichord is credited to Paul on his song

For No One found on Revolver

Paul is seen here on the recorder

(a song flute or a penny whistle to some) heard on

 Fool On The Hill

Paul seen below on yes, a trumpet & a trombone!

these last few instrumental credits for Paul aren't

keyboards, but classical forms none-the-less.

this one looks to be from the

All You Need Is Love session.

This last one looks to have been taken during the

Get Back sessions.
