I had this horrible thought that the Deluxe Edition of Pepper would have a bonus disc of outtakes that had the same tracks from Anthology 2 and it didn’t have Carnival Of Light on it.
I hope this wasn’t a premonition but it was still horrific.

A colour strip has appeared on all within the last few hours:
The four colours of the stripes correspond to the colours of the Pepper uniforms.
Seems like the build-up to the announcement of the 50th Anniversary Edition of Pepper has begun…

Things are definitely happening, Ringo just tweeted with a comment added to the colour bar…
The colour bar now appears on all solo accounts, with Yoko adding an all yellow one to the standard on John’s twitter…

Offline Just discovered another tweet on the subject of the Pepper reissue, this from Keith Allison, former bassist with Paul Revere & The Raiders, and friend of Sir Ringo of Starr, last Thursday:
If you’re a Beatle fan you might like this this story…I know I do. *This June 1st will be the 50th anniversary of Sgt. Pepper album. March 30th is the anniversary of cover photo shoot.
A couple months ago I was at Ringo’s home. We were in his man cave watching tv, when a delivery from England came in. It’s was from Giles Martin, George Martins son. What’s this? It’s the Sgt. Pepper album remastered. I said, “I haven’t listened to this in I don’t know how long.” Ringo exclaimed, “You haven’t heard it in a long time? I haven’t listened to it in decades.” So we decide to listen to it on his high def top of the line system. So here we are sitting on the sofa, facing the Tv, muted, but with soap operas playing. We listened to every track together. I thought, this is a historically great moment. Sitting here with my friend, listening to Sgt. Pepper , that he’s on as a Beatle, and that he hasn’t listen to track by track, since it came out.
Only two copies of the remastered Sgt. Pepper album were sent out, one to McCartney and one to Ringo, to be approved by them both. So what did Ringo think? He thought it was great! Why? Because it originally was recorded on a 4-track with a lot of over dubs, which buried the drums. Now, the drums have been lifted and come through as they should. He was pleased. You’ll be glad to know it was remastered at EMI Studios where it was originally recorded.
I remember the first time I heard Sgt. Pepper . It was in Carmel, at Raiders drummer Mike ‘Smitty’ Smith’s home. He got an advanced copy prior to its release. We sat there listening to it, in its entirety. Revisiting certain songs.
Now, some of it’s rubbish – no way Yoko and Olivia didn’t also get copies, but it’s the first report of a Beatle hearing it and reacting to it.

Apple aren’t that bad.
It will be a bonus dvd of new exclusive interviews with Paul and Ringo telling us stuff we’ve known for the last 50 years played over looped fragments of outtakes we’ve never heard before, along with the promo videos for ‘ PL’, ‘SFF’, and ‘ADITL’, all of which feature 3 seconds of previously unseen footage – if you haven’t seen the footage before.

Apple are absolutely fantastic compared to the people who handle that kind of stuff for the Beach Boys .
Anyway, I’m incredibly hyped. HYPED I TELL THEE!

I’m always worried that someone will buy it who doesn’t care about it’s history and flatten it. I heard the local council had given the go ahead for Sunny Heights to be flattened a few years ago which is very sad (I don’t know if it was). It would be a dream of mine just to visit Kenwood and have a look around. Maybe I’ll pose as a millionaire and ask for a viewing. Yoko or Julian could save it. Or maybe Liam and Noel could club together.
