just released (1/2 century after the song was first recorded) to accompany the newly released. remastered & expanded boxset of Revolver - pretty neat video - took months to put together
Assembled by artist and director Em Cooper, the remarkable “I’m Only Sleeping” video looks almost like an animated oil painting, with the evocative visual matching the beautiful harmonies, experimental recording methods and avant-garde composition of this dreamlike song – evocative of The Beatles’ pioneering approach to the music of Revolver.
In making the video, Cooper explored the space between dreaming and wakefulness, working on an animation rostrum on sheets of celluloid. She painted every frame individually in oil-paint, a laborious process which took many months.
BTW - the re-released album just claimed the # 2 spot on Billboard two days after it's release in the UK. Pretty amazing.
absolutely phenomenal -what a talent - watch it at least until the 2 minute mark when she switches over to anelectric guitar = if not you don't know what you're missing - Brandi - where have you been all my life..........................
