The Beatles 'Revolver' Track John Lennon Considered a "Throwaway" and Phil Collins ...
Despite being cut from a scene in the Beatles‘ 1964 film A Hard Day’s Night as a young teen, and again years later from a session piece he recorded for George Harrison‘s All Things Must Pass that never made the album, Phil Collins always loved the band and said “All My Loving” would be a song he’d take to a deserted island.
“The Beatles were the reason I’m in this business,” Collins told BBC in 1993. “Although I’ve been playing the drums since I was 5, it was The Beatles that suddenly gave me a purpose. This, I think, sums up that early-mid ’60s feeling from me when I was in school, really loving it.”
He even named the band’s 1966 album Revolver one of his favorite albums. “There is also a great consistency throughout the record [‘Revolver’],” said Collins. “With vinyl albums, you would have big moments like the end of side one, the beginning of side two, and the end of the record, and with something like ‘Revolver’ you would listen to it with great care, from the beginning to the end.
