Does anyone like those screams that the boys do, generally just before a guitar solo, c. 1962-65? Those screams are just one of the many things I love about the Beatles.

I was listening to "Slow Down", and John has some really great ones there, but the one just before George's guitar solo ranks as one of the best ever on a Beatles record IMO.

I also like the scream by Paul on "Can't Buy Me Love". Also at the beginning of the electric version of "Revolution".

Does anyone else like those screams  :)? Any other good ones that come to mind?

Thanks  :)
I love John,
I love Paul,
And George and Ringo,
I love them all!

Oh Pineapple

I like their shouting on "Twist & Shout" lol
(of course)
That makes the song well...what it is! hah
And, ummmm...i dont think you could call it "screaming", but i love the way Paul carries his voice on "Hey Jude". Towards the end, he seems to just drift away in his song.
(Another great sign of a pure, brilliant artist)
Listen to it, and see if you get what i am talking about.  :)

And, YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE.
hah

I like Paul singing Helter Skelter & Oh Darling.  He gets real loud in those ones.

Oh wow, I guess I forgot about those!

I like the trippy scream in A Day in the Life done by Paul.

I always liked Pauls screaming at the end of 'Hey Jude'.

Also, Johns on 'Hey Bulldog' (Cripes I think it was John)

Hello Goodbye

The change in tonality of Paul's voice, constrained or boarderline scream, in an otherwise mellow "Golden Slumbers"

Smiles awake you when you rise"
I can stay till it's time to go
