I prefer fixing a hole to everyone, and the compilations of the albums are very good, Join The Human Race is awesome

Would they take another look at All Things Must Pass? Would George have allowed 2 songs only? How would My Sweet Lord have fit, seeing as how he wrote it while with Delaney and Bonnie? Would something like Every Night get past the test of George Martin? The answer to all of these is no. So any attempt, if you want some background to the attempt, is wasting your time. Just like typing this was for me: a time waster.

Certainly "How do you sleep?"

"Too many people" would have had different lyrics.

Imagining the next Beatle album is nearly irresistible. 

My book is a serious history book, but a couple of pages from the end I can't help but "imagine" the next album. My list is similar to I Me Mine's above, but I think you have to throw in a Ringo song:

Side 1: Maybe I'm Amazed, Imagine, My Sweet Lord, Every Night, Jealous Guy/Child of Nature, Junk.

Side 2: All Things Must Pass, Give Me Some Truth, You're Sixteen, Uncle ...]]> Tue, 16 Aug 2011 03:15:17 +0100 The Walrus on The Beatles Never Broke up http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/recording-and-musicology/the-beatles-never-broke-up-2/#p40853 Recording and musicology http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/recording-and-musicology/the-beatles-never-broke-up-2/#p40853 mr.

 (Oh, and any attempts to create a 1970/1971 album need to take into consideration that songs were inspired by the break up. Therefor those songs can't be on a Beatles album.)

And none of I Me Mine's selection were songs inspired by the break up. None of John's primal songs (except possibly Working Class Hero), no Too Many People, no Wah-Wah.

As I type this, I realise why they broke up. They couldn't work together. Or, as this shows, neither do their songs. I meant to type this when I listened to it in May, and it is aggravating.

The whole concept is interesting but obviously fake, however it's a nice idea to think that in an alternate universe ,The Beatles are still making music.

I agree.
I've made a playlist with songs for my imaginary album "Imagine" (released in late 1970/early 1971 in an paralel universe):

  1. Imagine (John)
  2. Child of Nature (earlier version of I'm a Jealous Guy - John)
  3. My Sweet Lord (George)
  4. Junk (Paul)
  5. Gimme Some Truth (John)
  6. Working Class Heo (John)

  1. Isn't It a Pity (George)
  2. Every Night (Paul)
  3. Instant Karma! (John)
  4. Maybe I'm Amazed (Paul)
  5. All Things Must Pass (George)

Four Guys is fairly good, but the "long time ago when we was BAND ON THE RUN" bit doesn't work.

What is Talking To Myself composed of? I recognise Admiral Halsey, but bizarrely not the John or George songs- I'm guessing John's is from Walls And Bridges?

Days Like These, Over The Ocean, I'm Just Sitting Here and Sick To Death were let down by the backing tracks, which don't fit at all.

Actually, I quite like it. It is mesmerising, and one of the most ambitious sounding "Beatles" albums.

Then I listened to Band on the Run and thought, "Actually the real is one is a lot better."

But you want a really good Beatles remix album I would suggest "The Grey Album" by DJ Danger Mouse. It's basically the acapella tracks of Jay-Z's Black Album mashed together with bits of the White Album. Not for people who aren't fans of Hip Hop however.
