Cool! Thanks for the heads-up. George Harrison put out a rather bizzar, electronic, Cage-like album on their Zappal label once. "Very strange."

MAYBE something like "what's the new maryjane", "#9", i'm always up for any Beatles good or not, and this one.....rejected for the Anthology collection...raises a flag, and am open to hearing it. i'm not a fan of jamming/improv free-form freak-out recordings,(unless i'm one of the musicians), and having been a drummer myself, and enjoying the experience of recorded improvisation party-psychedelia, i am still interested in anything Beatles, 'cause i'm a true fan, having seen them live, and they changed my life. Bless them Beatles. i guess i'm saying there are worse records to trash than maybe a bad Beatles record. so, until i hear it, ...i hope it's cool.

Yeah (Yeah, Yeah) bob f., I'm a true fan too, and saw the last show at Candlestick, with seats right on the field (above the dugout). I hope that the LOVE board members don't mind a BEATLE'S rap, but beings that BL did the Sgt Pepper thing, I imagine it's okay. What's the New Maryjane, is a hard listen...obviously a reflection of getting stoned, rather than getting high.

welcome back, LeeRob! i saw The Fab 4 at Dodger Stadium, '66 with The Remains. i like The Maryjane track, but i have difficulty listening to "9", 'cause it creeps me out. sure is alot of publicity about "Carnival Of Life" on tv news.

That's what "General Discussion" is for, LeeRob. Caryne & I have gotten into a few fun Beatle discussions ...so we're cool here.

LoVE brought us together. Sharing the rest of our musical loves is what makes this site great...and the people here, of course.

#9 was innovative at the time, as was the whole White Album, but #9 isn't the kind of track that gets played a lot. I liked it the first time I heard it, though. It was a trip. For me anything "lost & found" by the Beatles is worth a listen. I loved "You Know My Name. Look Up De' Number"...still do & that was pretty unusual way back when. I wore out that "B" side.

Hey bob f., Yep, I saw the same tour, in S.F., Bobby Hebb came over from Alameda, where he was stationed in the Navy, and, in uniform, sang Sonny. Also, The Cyrcle was at Candlestick, did Red Rubber Ball.
You Know My Name... is GREAT! I like the swirlling, looped strings in #9. I've had the Rare Beatle Tracks set since the mid 70's; there is a bunch of great stuff there. Most of it never heard until the Anthology material was released. You gotta love George Harrison's: Miss O'Dell, where he cracks up several times with the greatest giggles ever recorded.

I see the tune was considered 'adventurous'....another aspect of the Beatles that's being looked at now where they were certainly catalysts in entertaining "new" music and how it came across...all those years in hamburg weren't for nothing...it made them out and out professsionals..when we see them on ed Sullivn they are pros man....not sure but I think they were one of the early few messing around with people like "Stockhausen' who wasn't exactly a household name at the time...nor is it today for that matter unless you're maybe a post-modernist...

You can hear Macca talking to Front Row's John Wilson about the lost track and related themes at:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00fgdk3/Front_Row_20112008/

I've always felt ambivalent about the Anthology CDs. I feel that all the genuinely unreleased titles or radically different versions could have fitted on to a single 2CD release. And of course making way for some of the over familiar material were the still unreleased, Colliding Circles, Sour Milk Sea and Child of Nature - I never could understand that. But will I be splashing out for the remastered original albums next year? .....You bet! Just as I was spending my pocket money on The Beatles when I was 13 - I shall be dipping into my pension for this latest extravagance. Talk about 'timeless'.......I hope I make it to 64!
