If you're a Beatles fan, you're in for a treat. They just re-released a new version of the White album. 6 discs of re-masters, but even more importantly, rehearsal recordings and various takes. Some of them are quite sublime and reveal the Beatles in their natural, unpolished state. In particular, I was taken by the following tracks:
Disc 5, track 13 - While my guitar gently weeps, 3rd version, take 27
Disc 5, track 3 - Hey Jude, take 1
Disc 4, track 1 - Revolution 1, take 18
The good news is, if you're a Spotify subscriber like me, you don't even have to buy the album!
Do yourself a favour and at least go listen to those tracks that I mentioned.
