Notes


DISC SIX begins with the only real stretch of these discs without "replayability" - nine tedious stereo remixes (some aborted) of "A Day In The Life". Still, this is the only SGT. PEPPER tape in this collection, and the set wouldn't be complete without it. The mono BBC feed of "All You Need Is Love" puts us right in Studio 1 during the momentous broadcast. Acid reigns on the tape-loop festooned "Flying", and the Ringo-heavy initial take of "Hello Goodbye". Alternate mixes of the basic "Lady Madonna" track follow, and then another treat: "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" in their early incarnations, and with no Emerick interference! Wrapping things up, a pair of "Hey Jude" takes sandwiching some Macca improvs.
