THAT “HARD DAY'S NIGHT” CHORD": WHAT IT IS AND HOW IT WORKS

Finally, from out of the frozen northern wastelands of Nova Scotia, Canada, a stranger rode into town, a mathematics professor named Jason Brown. And what did the stranger do? Why, he took off his hat and tossed it on a peg, and then he sat down at a computer and digitized that dang chord real good. And then Dr. Brown spent six months deconstructing it. When it was all over and the dust had settled, the mathematical stranger had solved the mystery.

What did Dr. Brown find?

  • George Harrison played the notes F, A, C, and G on his 12- string Rickenbacker electric guitar.
  • Paul McCartney played the note D on his bass.
  • George Martin played the notes D, F, E, and G on the piano.
