Some of The Beatles had different feelings on one of The Beatles’ songs from Abbey Road. An anvil was used as an instrument on the song. John felt the track was incredibly expensive.

A song from The Beatles‘ Abbey Road uses an anvil as an instrument. A sound engineer said Paul McCartney and John Lennon had conflicting opinions about the song. On the other hand, George Harrison called the song “fruity” but felt it was well-executed.

Geoff Emerick worked as a sound engineer on The Beatles’ Revolver, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and Abbey Road. In a 2022 interview with MusicRadar, he recalled the creation of “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer.” “There were two struggles going on with this song: Paul and John fighting over whether it should even exist!” he said. 

“John called it ‘more of Paul’s granny music,'” Emerick added. “But there was my own struggle coming up with the sounds that should go on it.”
