Room 53, EMI Studios, Abbey Road
Producer: George Martin
Engineer: Geoff Emerick
Between 10am and 1pm on this day, new mono mixes were made of ‘All You Need Is Love’ and ‘Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds’, for the soundtrack of the Yellow Submarine film.
The mixes were each done in one attempt. ‘All You Need Is Love’ was the first to be created. Numbered remix 11, it lasted 3’44”, 13 seconds less than the mono single. The mix of ‘Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds’ was numbered 20.
It is unlikely that The Beatles were present at this session, although they attended an afternoon session for Magical Mystery Tour songs.
