The Rolling Stones

Een van de meest bekende rockbands ter wereld. Mick Jagger en Keith Richards kennen elkaar al sinds de lagere school, en besluiten in 1962 om samen met Dick Taylor en enkele andere jeugdvrienden hun eerste groep te vormen.In de Londense blues scene treffen ze later Brian Jones en Ian Stewart.De eerste drummer was Tony Chapman,welke later vervangen werd door Charlie Watts. Dick Taylor zou de groep na enige tijd verlaten,om later weer op te duiken bij de Pretty Things. Uit audities werd Bill Wyman gekozen als Taylor's plaatsvervanger. Eind 1962 zijn de Rolling Stones dan een feit. Hun naam ontlenen ze aan een oud nummer van Muddy Waters. Een jaar later zou Andrew Loog Oldham hun manager worden,en op zijn advies zou Stewart de groep verlaten omdat deze niet voldeed aan het ruige image dat Oldham voor de groep bedacht had. Stewart zou trouwens wel veelvuldig op plaatopnamen en live concerten te beluisteren zijn.

(Joseph Ferrante, piano tuner of George Harrison)

This treatment of the song has been completely changed rhythmically and harmonically to obtain a very different song which hardly keeps any resemblance to the original one.
Only the lyrics and the singing melody remain untouched. The rest is another song altogether. The piece has been practically recomposed. In other words, another song was composed where the singing melody of the original song would perfectly fit.
An ethereal choir lays the carpet upon which the rest of the arrangements would rest.
A mixture of classical scales, indian music, greek music, latin bachata, mambo and flamenco brings the song into reality.

On top of an obstinate percussive tempo softened by a romantic bachata rhythm, we hear the sometimes sweet and sometimes savage expressions of the guitar telling us a story...
The third part of this recomposition gives the guitar the chance to break free from the melodic structure.
After a fierce battle in the oceanic winds against creatures of all sorts, we hear the guitar rest on an ingenuous final chord which, in the sunset is the herald of a peaceful starry night...
This Hey Jude was born to reach music lovers of all backgrounds and ages.
This Hey Jude is a child of the heart and is meant to reach the hearts...comes from the depths of the soul and from there calls out to the depths of any other soul....

The owners of the copyright for the original Hey Jude (Sony Music Publishers) were so delighted by this recomposition that granted Joseph Ferrante a publishing agreement for it, thus allowing him to restructure the song. It is important to notice that on very few occasions copyright owners have granted a permission to alter a song protected by them.

Concerning this Hey Jude of Joseph Ferrante, Richard Dunn of BBC World service commented: ¨I must say I found it a very original and quite virtuoso arrangement¨. Sam Winwood of Sony Entertainment (UK) Limited said: ¨I was really impressed with the quality of the performance and your new arrangement¨. Andy Turner of London Capital Radio went on to say: ¨I found it a very interesting arrangement¨.
