Re: I Want You (She's So Heavy) - Mexican EP (I Want You fade out)

I remember my local HMV Shop having loads of these Mexican EPs in the early 1980s, but I could never afford them. So needledrops such as this are very welcome,

Although now in the UK we are supposed to refer to it as the Springtime Holiday, not the Easter Holiday, as it upsets some foreigners that have come to live here!
As you well know, that is absolute bollocks

Re: John Duff Lowe RIP

My gut feeling (based on absolutely nothing concrete) is that Wally, like Tony Sheridan, probably had a 'pub singer' voice, meaning it would probably be a tough listen if it ever turned up.

Bad Penny Blues is the Humphrey Lyttleton track that was a big inspiration for Lady Madonna, so it's possible that the recording was played at Abbey Road during the Madonna sessions.

Oh and Jubilee was recorded in 1968, but by 1970 had been renamed as Junk

The Beatles never recorded such songs like Colliding Circles.
I was always under the impression it was an alternative title for Circles, which they demoed in 1968.

Re: The Beatles At The Beeb 1982 extended

Over the years of listening to these sets, I've grown to like The Folk Singer a lot - it's easily my favourite of the non-Beatles songs across the sets.
