Judging by the downboats, I could be wrong, and it's certainly more complicated than my inane initial attempt at explanation (I can only apologise, Reddit). What I said was based on this book - which by the way is highly recommended as very well-researched, and fun to dip into to find out more about their songs: the author travelled in search of everyone the band was close to, essentially hoping to settle as many urban legends and conduct as many interviews as he could. It's also very readable as the story of how it all began.
Irritatingly it's at my girlfriends' place on the other side of the country now, but I seem to remember a mono-vs-stereo page at the back, with a quote from George saying something along the lines of "We tried true stereo recording a couple of times in the later albums, and we didn't like it so that was that, we went back to mono." Sorry I'm being so vague, maybe I'm misinterpreting what was meant, but if anyone knows better I'd love to be corrected on this one! Maybe I'm confusing stereo recording with stereo mastering here?
side note: wow, not heard that before! thanks :)
The only cite I remember was in the book A Hard Day's Write which is the story of every Beatles song (and as you might expect, is fucking fantastic)
A quick google search yields this. It may be apocryphal (that he only knew those chords), but it's definitely his tune, and I definitely imagine John and Paul telling him what to do all the time...
