Recorded at Olympic Studios in London with frequent collaborator Nicky Hopkins providing harpsichord and manager Andrew Loog Oldham in the producer\u2019s chair, \u201cDandelion\u201d draws lyrical inspiration from British nursery rhymes. Soon after its 1967 release, the single reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 8 in the UK where \u201cWe Love You\u201d was the A-side.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/perfectmusictoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/17-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2340\" src=\"http:\/\/perfectmusictoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/17-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"481\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/perfectmusictoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/17-4.jpg 481w, https:\/\/perfectmusictoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/17-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/perfectmusictoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/17-4-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 481px) 100vw, 481px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Also recorded at Olympic Studios in the summer of \u201967, \u201cWe Love You\u201d has Brian Jones on Mellotron, Nicky Hopkins on piano, and backing vocals by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, who were returning the favor just after a Keith and Mick had contributed backing vocals to The Beatles\u2019 \u201cAll You Need Is Love.\u201d The jail door sound effects at the beginning is an aural reference to Jagger and Richards\u2019 arrest for drug possession that February, in which the English country home of the latter was raided and the two spent a night in prison. Thinly disguised as a blanket statement of love, the song is actually an anti-authoritarian anthem (\u201cYou will never win we\/Your uniforms don\u2019t fit we\u201d), sung by Jagger over Moroccan-influenced droning music. This new lyric video artfully incorporates prison-style bars and keyholes with psychedelic imagery.<\/p>\n<p>Legendary recording engineer Eddie Kramer recollects the \u201cDandelion\u201d sessions at Olympic on where he served as assistant engineer at the time. \u201cThe Stones were there right at the opening of the new Olympic Studios and remember Keith singing backup vocals on \u2018Dandelion.\u201d As far as Brian is concerned, he was a sensitive genius and I don\u2019t think there was an instrument the, given enough time, he couldn\u2019t play. That Mellotron he played was Keith\u2019s; he had purchased it and it sat at Olympic for years as a kind of centerpiece. Everybody had to have a go at that bloody thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur visual features a hand drawn alphabet inspired by the lettering on a Dutch 7&#8243; sleeve of \u2018We Love You\u2019\/\u2018Dandelion\u2019 from 1967,\u201d stated the London-based creative design studio Yes Please\u00a0 Productions whose founders Tom Readdy and Lucy Dawkins directed the videos. \u201cBefitting the lyrics and &#8216;flower power&#8217; vibe of \u2018Dandelion,\u2019 we drew a series of psychedelic scenes featuring dandelions and elements from nature, animated with a stop-frame feel to further compliment the track and time of original release.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content clearfix\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"inductee-category\">\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/spiritsman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tn-10.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2952\" src=\"http:\/\/spiritsman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tn-10.jpg\" alt=\"tn-10\" width=\"88\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"inductee-category\">\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<p>Michael Hepworth<\/p>\n<p>287 S.Robertson Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/spiritsman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/search.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3012\" src=\"http:\/\/spiritsman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/search.jpeg\" alt=\"search\" width=\"105\" height=\"85\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfectmealtoday.com\/\">www.perfectmealtoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:perfectmealtoday@gmail.com\">perfectmealtoday@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/MrSpiritsman\">http:\/\/twitter.com\/MrSpiritsman<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spiritsman.com\/\">www.spiritsman.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:mrspiritsman@gmail.com\">mrspiritsman@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfectskintoday.com\/\">www.perfectskintoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:perfectskintoday@gmail.com\">perfectskintoday@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfecttraveltoday.com\/\">www.perfecttraveltoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:perfecttraveltoday@gmail.com\">perfecttraveltoday@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfectmealtoday.com\/\">www.perfectmealtoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:perfectmealtoday@gmail.com\">perfectmealtoday@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfectgolftoday.com\/\">www.perfectgolftoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:perfectgolftoday@gmail.com\">perfectgolftoday@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfectmusictoday.com\/\">www.perfectmusictoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:perfectmusictoday@gmail.com\">perfectmusictoday@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perfectnewztoday.com\">www.perfectnewztoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.westhollywoodtoday.com\">www.westhollywoodtoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/alquimie.com.au\/publication\/\">http:\/\/alquimie.com.au\/publicatio<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobiusgallery.com\">www.mobiusgallery.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobiusgallery.net\">www.mobiusgallery.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.westhollywoodtoday.com\">www.westhollywoodtoday.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
