- This is one of the "recordings" (I use the term loosely) from
- the film sessions at Twickenham in January 1969. There are reels and
- reels of material from these rehearsals, much of which has shown up
- on bootlegs for about 20 years. The most recent one I saw was a
- 3-CD collection from the Blue Kangaroo bootleg label. There is also
- a 6-CD collection and many other bootlegs. Most of the material is
- terribly performed and of low technical quality. That is no
- criticism of the Beatles- it was all rehearsal stuff anyway. None of it
- was properly recorded, as Lewisohn points out. Don't waste your
- money on them.
-
- Macca has been accused of racism because of his remarks about the
- Pakastanis. I think this is unfair because the recording is
- from a rehearsal and sounds like he was making up words on the spot.
