I don't think that album flows very well Eric  :cigar:

Yeah. For the guy who loves The White Album so much, I'd think that he wouldn't butcher it down to only 16 tracks, not to mention that it's out of the order that The Beatles wanted them to be heard forty years ago. Speaking of butchering an album, I believe you are the guy who kept his arguement for months that the US version of Revolver is butchered, yet that only cut three tracks. This compilation throws half of The White Album in the trash.

>_>

You're missing the point. I started with 226 songs, and decided to cut it down to 100. My 100 favourite tracks, and after that I put them in an order chronologically. It wasn't supposed to be an album really, just a collection of my 100 favourites sequenced in order

And for your information, I waited till the very last thing I did to cut into The Beatles

well done Eric, thats a very good list if i do say so meself!

muchas gracias. See the thing is, I set out with the intention of just cutting it down to 100 to see if I could. Then I decided afterwards to sequence them, cause I thought it'd be fun

Agree.

It's a very powerful song, and his vocals add a lot to the feel of it.

And "She's Leaving Home" is one of his best backing vocals!

"LOVE" ALBUM TO BE RELEASED


Monday 2nd October

Apple Corps Ltd/EMI Music proudly announces the release of LOVE, the new CD from The Beatles, due November 2006.

After being asked by the remaining Beatles, Ringo and Paul along with Yoko Ono Lennon and Olivia Harrison, to make experimental mixes from the original master tapes for a collaboration with Cirque du Soleil, Sir George Martin, The Beatles legendary producer, and his son Giles Martin have been working with the entire archive of Beatles recordings to create LOVE.

The result is an unprecedented approach to the music. Using the master tapes at EMI's Abbey Road Studios, Sir George and Giles have created a unique soundscape. The release of this album, which is also featured in the Cirque Du Soleil/Beatles collaborative production of the same name at the Mirage in Las Vegas, has been much anticipated.

"This music was designed for the LOVE show in Las Vegas but in doing so we've created a new Beatles album" said Sir George. "The Beatles always looked for other ways of expressing themselves and this is another step forward for them."

Giles continues, "We took all the Beatles' catalogue from tape, the original four tracks, eight tracks and two tracks and used this palette of sounds and music to create a sound bed. What people will be hearing on the album is a new experience, a way of re-living the whole Beatles musical lifespan in a very condensed period".

The album will be released worldwide in November 2006. Additional information, including a track listing will be available shortly.


Many thanks.

1967 was such a great year for the Beatles. Penny Lane, Sgt. Pepper, Strawberry Fields... :nod:

I haven't checked, but off the top of my head (and to be really picky), I thought "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "Penny Lane" were recorded in 1966... was "When I'm 64" also recorded in 1966??

But, yeah, 1967 was a good year for music. There was the sonic wonder of "Flying" and the energetic rocker "Blue Jay Way", and the genius of the "Magical Mystery Tour" movie.

Okay, being serious, yes it was a good year. But not for Brian Epstein.

The Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane sessions started late late late 66 (like december 29 i think) but only the very basic track was laid down for Strawberry Fields in that time. John wrote the basic melody while shooting How I Won The War which was late 66 but yeah, it wasn't completed till early 67.

As for When I'm 64, I'm pretty sure that was recorded during the Pepper sessions although it was one of the first songs Paul wrote; he was around 15 or 16 when he wrote it.
