I don't have time to discuss variations in different mixes for I Am The Walrus right now.

Thanks for that. Interesting...

How do you like the longer version of I Am The Walrus I sent you, Joe?

Anthology 2 has the extra bar - it's the only official version I'm aware of that has it. Lennon starts to sing in it but stops.

He also plays a different chord on the electric piano, suggesting that the extra bar was intentional but they later edited it out. It can be heard on the alternative takes from the session too (several can be heard on YouTube).

I'm sure I once heard that the strings were scored for this bar too - did someone once post a clip here? I did a search but couldn't find it.

That reminds me. ...]]> Tue, 15 Feb 2011 23:11:35 +0000 Joe on I Am The Walrus - Unedited/Extended Version http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/i-am-the-walrus-uneditedextended-version/#p17923 The songs http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/i-am-the-walrus-uneditedextended-version/#p17923 Anthology 2 has the extra bar - it's the only official version I'm aware of that has it.

On wikipedia it says there is a version with an extra bar, but it's not in Joe's article and he's the most reliable source out there. Could be a myth, who knows?
