I never thought about this, but did John even have a home piano at the time? I don't think he did until he moved into Kenwood. Perhaps it was recorded in the Ashers' basement?
I always had the date of the demo as approximately July 63, but even by September I don't think the Fabs had moved down to London permanently.

It could be the Asher's piano of course but, and I'm only speculating, Jim McCartney had a piano in Forthlin Road. Could it have been recorded there?

I believe they were sharing the Green Street flats in London by September, and it's possible they rented a piano there to use for composing. But I agree that Jim's or Mrs. Asher's pianos are more likely.

Volume 3 now available. The real highlight of this volume is an unbootlegged upgrade of the March 5 and September 12 '63 sessions. The previous best transfer on Tobe Milo was more distorted, had noise reduction applied, and had some bits missing that showed up on other releases. This source is the most complete and the best sounding, maybe better sounding than any unofficial recording, despite having some peak limiting applied. Enjoy!

Hot Diggity!

The "One After 909" takes are definitely clearer and the tape is less mangled.
