The Beatles - Back in the U.S.S.R.
The Beatles - Back in the U.S.S.R. Copyright - 1968 EMI Records Ltd. "Back in the U.S.S.R." is a 1968 song by The Beatles, written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon/McCartney), which opens the double-disc album The Beatles, commonly referred to as The White Album. The song describes a bad flight from the United States to the U.S.S.R. on board a British BOAC aeroplane and mentions the beauty of Soviet women, the sound of balalaikas ringing, and the pleasure of returning home to his own country. The song is a tribute to Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A." and the Beach Boys' "California Girls", and also contains a pun on Hoagy Carmichael's "Georgia on My Mind." McCartney is singing about the Soviet Republic of Georgia, whereas 'Georgia on My Mind' has been described as being about either or both of the state of Georgia in the U.S. or a woman named Georgia. McCartney thought that when he listened to the Beach Boys, it sounded like California, so he decided to write a song that "sounded" like the U.S.S.R.. The title was inspired in part by the "I'm Backing Britain" campaign which had been endorsed by British Prime Minister Harold Wilson. It has been suggested that McCartney twisted that into "I'm Back In (backin') the U.S.S.R." A conservative American backlash against the song rapidly ensued, citing the song as evidence of left-wing Beatle propaganda.[citation needed] McCartney's recent confession of having used LSD (combined with Lennon's assertion that the Beatles were "bigger than Jesus") made the Beatles the target of a new anti-rock campaign. In his 1984 interview with Playboy, McCartney said: " I wrote that as a kind of Beach Boys parody. And 'Back in the USA' was a Chuck Berry song, so it kinda took off from there. I just liked the idea of Georgia girls and talking about places like the Ukraine as if they were California, you know? It was also hands across the water, which I'm still conscious of. 'Cuz they like us out there, even though the bosses in the Kremlin may not. The kids do. And that to me is very important for the future of the race. " "Back in the U.S.S.R." was released by Parlophone as a single in the UK in 1976. It featured the song "Twist and Shout" on Side B. The song segues into the next song on the album, "Dear Prudence". Problems in the band The "White Album" sessions allowed the four members to work on separate projects at the same time and, as a result, kept tensions to a minimum. However, tempers flared during the recording session on 22 August 1968, and Ringo Starr walked out and announced that he had quit.[5] "Back in the U.S.S.R." and "Dear Prudence", the first two tracks of the album, were recorded without Starr, with McCartney primarily responsible for the drum parts. McCartney's drums are most prominent in the mix, but both John Lennon and George Harrison recorded drum tracks for the song; these are audible in the left channel of the stereo mix. Lennon was asked years earlier in an interview, "Do you think Ringo is the best rock drummer in the world?" to which he jokingly replied, "He's not even the best drummer in the Beatles." Starr returned to the group a week later on 4 September 1968 when he participated in the filming of promotional videos for "Hey Jude" and "Revolution". The first subsequent recording session was on 5 September for "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
