The music for “Taxman” was inspired by the theme song for the popular 1960s TV series Batman, which was recorded by the Surf Rock group The Marketts earlier in 1966 and hit #17 in the US. George was a big fan of the show. Thwap! Kapow! Bam!
From the Beatles cartoons, 1967 ….
And this … with Eric Clapton, Live in Japan 1994.
