Quoted from Kevin


C'mon - it's in Beatle code. It's Sun King backwards.


You might remember how silly I am from last year.  

Do you reckon they've gone for the old tape running backwards thing?

Don't that bring a Beethoven Sonate on the surface? I thought Sun King was this piece of classical work played backwards. And backwards played backwards...

I've just checked A Hard Day's Write and it says that it was Because that was inspired by Beethoven's Piano Sonata No 14 in C Sharp Minor. Not Sun King. As I thought I remembered. Silly as I am, I can get it right!  

Steve Turner says 'The similarity...is striking, although close scrutiny reveals it to be  a straightforward lift rather than the reversal of notes John suggested.' 'John, in particular...came to regard Beethoven as the supreme composer, and one with whom he felt kinship.'

I like it too. Colourful.

So, Lennon regarded himself as an equal with the 'supreme composer' Beethoven. So we can assume from this he regarded his songwriting as superior to Paul's!?

well, the cover looks OK. I heard some of those songs on my favourite radio station, and I must say...they sound good. It's an experiment mor than anything else I guess. But George Martin did a good job, yet again.
I will definitely buy this album.

The cover is obviously a combination of early and later Beatles imagery.

As promised, here are the 4 promo tracks for LOVE: http://rapidshare.com/files/1755716/Love_Promo.zip

Tracks as follows:

1. Strawberry Fields Forever (Love Version)
2. Octopus's Garden (Love Version)
3. Lady Madonna (Love Version)
4. While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Love Version)

Just a quick note on Strawberry Fields - this track is a combination of all of the available versions starting from John's home demo into take 1 then the regular versions (plus bits and pieces in the outro). However, there is an absolutely dreadful edit at 0:27 (where John's demo joins take 1) which I hope has been fixed on the released version - honestly - I could have done better!!!! Apart from that, the mix is brilliant!

A little quiz for ya - who can name the song whose drums are used as the intro to Lady Madonna?
