Need help with EMITAPE E70549 from Sept 16, 1968 (I will Session)
Posted: Sun Feb 05, 2023 6:01 am
So - we have many of the acoustic tracks recorded during these sessions, and FINALLY the 50th Anniversary White Album BOOK shows us a pic of the actual EMITape box E70549.
So I'm trying to re-order the tracks from that day that were recorded and the FIRST track I must rectify is 'Can You Take Me Back' which has in the past been list as Take 19....but if I look closer at the Tape Box - I believe that 1 looks more like a 3...and THAT IS WHY IT is listed AFTER STEP, LOS, and WAY YOU LOOK....as the last listing...
Based on what has been released - can we compile a more accurate song order?
I'll list the songs if necessary...but first see the EMITape box from the Book and then consider the order of songs -
I'm thinking THIS is the new correct order -
68-09.16a - I Will (Take 1)(false start)
68-09.16b - I Will (Take 1)
68-09.16c - I Will (Take 12-13)(false start)(rattle them skulls)
68-09.16e - Blue Moon (jam)(Take28-I Will)
68-09.16f - I Will (Take 29)('I Won't' ending)
68-09.16g - Down In Havana (jam)(Take 30-I Will)(repaired)
68-09.16h - Step Inside Love (jam)(Take 34-I Will)(repaired)
68-09.16i - Los Paranoias (jam)(Take 35-I Will)
68-09.16j - The Way You Look Tonight (jam)(Take 36-I Will)
68-09.16d - Can You Take Me Back (jam)(Take 39-I Will) (changed form usual Take 19 listing)
