   Maybe you all should consider the remastered Red album.

a curse on the money grab of a red and blue album

Black album

 

the sudden availability of bootlegs and youtube and Anthology kind of drained the myth that they had dozens of great songs they hadn't recorded

 

i would give them 10 at most, some like What's the New Mary Jane is included but it justly wasn't put on vinyl

Haven't heard any of the "new" bootlegs but as far as I know Introducing the Beatles (veejay records) is the most counterfeited album of all time. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this.

They aren’t new, they are recently widely available for anyone who wants to hear them.

First takes on Savoy Truffle, George's itemization of a box of chocolates as his friend Eric Clapton ate the chocolates and complained how it hurt his rotten teeth.

Paul McCartney in San Francisco jamming with Jorma Kaukonen & Paul Kantner of Jefferson Airplane.
In April 1967, Paul flew to the USA (with Mal Evans) to surprise girlfriend Jane Asher for her 21st birthday. She was on tour with the Old Vic Theatre company.
He visited the Fillmore Auditorium, where Jefferson Airplane were rehearsing.
Paul then joined the band at their apartment and played an acetate of the Beatles’ new album ‘Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’. They also tried a jam, but Paul had problem playing Jack Casady’s right-handed bass guitar, so he switched to a guitar, which he could play lefty strung right.
San Francisco, 130 Delmar Street, 4/4/ 1967

A great day for throwaway masterpieces as they start on Long Long Long, I'm So Tired, and TCSoBungalowBill...

 

Yoko gets the first female voice on a Beatles track...

Paul adds Why Don't We Do it in the Road

 

Lennon: That's Paul. He even recorded it by himself in another room. That's how it was getting in those days. We came in and he'd made the whole record. Him drumming. Him playing the piano. Him singing. But he couldn't—he couldn't—maybe he couldn't make the break from the Beatles. I don't know what it was, you know. I enjoyed the track. Still, I can't speak for George, but I was always hurt when Paul would knock something off without involving us. But that's just the way it was then.

 

and the mix of bull and truth in that statement speaks volumes....

overdubs and remixes on a handful of throwaway little masterpieces this day in 1968

First showing of this promo in the US

Paul's single Say Say Say got to #1 in 1983, I'll note this major accomplishment for those who think I don't give him his due.

It's All Too Much gets resurrected for the Yellow Submarine soundtrack

 

this and Only a Northern Song were started during the Sgt Pepper sessions, would have been a lot more "ahead of it's psychedelic time" released then instead of when we got to hear it.

 

George apparently wrote IATM about acid, then found meditation gave the same results, I'll take his word for it...

 

 

 

still argued over who provided the opening feedback, some go with John, others Paul (more his type of noodling in studio), George was at the organ
