I've just upgraded the micro sd card in my phone from 256 to 500gb. As Doc Emmet Brown would say...

"500 jigga bytes?!"



Leaving aside the fact that what would once have filled several rooms full of shelves can now fit on my fingernail, I now face the tantalising decision of what to add to my phone. The days of deleting something old so I could fit something new are over!

Oh, I've got all the usual suspects. All the stereo and mono cds, all the 87 cds (well, not the first four), Russian rips of an 80s Blue Box, all the BBC radio docos, a bunch of rips of classic 80s vinyl Beatlegs by RMW, some boots by some character called Lord Reith, stuff by Masterjedi and Csnyfan, and even all those interview discs that littered the 80s landscape.

So what should I add now? Videos? More boots? Foreign albums? Solo albums?

Come on, make it easier for me! I'm a lazy bastard, and also I'm worried I might overlook something if left to my own devices.

Also, how much stuff do you guys keep on your phones?

Foreign EPs. The track listing can be fun, plus they're short listens.

Ooohhh. Yes! My favorite is the Mexican I Want You (She's So Heavy) EP. It has a fadeout on I Want You which is unique. Then it has Don't Let Me Down, Revolution, and Yer Blues. How is that not just the kick-assen-est EP ever?

There are many interesting non-canon Beatles EPs.

- The Tony Sheridan EPs (Mr. Twist, Hamburg Twist, Ya Ya, etc.)
- Souvenir Of Their Visit To America
- Japan EPs (Has unique mixes!)
- Four By The Beatles
- Rarities (Has the Count-In for She's A Woman)
- Mexican EPs (One has Taxman without the Count-In)
- Brazilian EPs (Including the infamous Penny Lane mix)

Christmas Time Is Here Again supposedly has an EP mix.

I love your modesty there!

I'm guessing that is the Free as a Bird b-side version, which was released as 1 of 4 tracks on CD, leading to the CD single being referred to as an EP.

Don't forget books. They help me pass the time when I'm at the Laundromat....

Also, Lord Reith was the first commoner to voice charges against
GilesMasonry and its rumored subversion of The Beatles Master Tapes.

Have a 9 hour drive Friday so I loaded up my phone. I downloaded some of the SiriusXM shows that have been posted. Also Lord Reith's Beeb's Lost Beatle Tapes. Anthology Revisited is also good for a long drive as are the BBC archives.
