Two songs, off the top of my head, mention sweaters:

"You can knit a sweater by the fireside..." When I'm 64
"Wearin' her high-heeled shoes, and a low-necked sweater..." Get Back

To assign the allusion to either of these (both fictional themselves) seems a 
shot in the dark, so maybe the picture hypothesis about John is more plausible.
Besides, he would have said "sweater."  Of course, there was that huge 
pullover-built-for-four in a MMT-era photo shoot...wonder where that is now?!

Apart from bootlegs, the only legally seen bits are The Who (in The
Kids Are ALright) and a bit in 25x5 the recent Stones history video.
(An ace extract ina great video)

There was a rumour that it was going to be legally relelased 2 years
ago, but that came to nothing.

My sources told me 2 weeks ago that the current delay is because the
band believe that it belongs to Klein, which complicates life -
although if Klein sees it as a way to make money....!  ANd, the tales
about Jagger not being happy with HIS performance are true - the rest
of the band think it is good, and I quote, don't give a fuck for
Mick's vanity and want it released.

>Has anybody heard the new one by George?  I would like to hear some reviews.

The reviews on rmb were mixed when it came out.  Myself, I really
enjoy it.  I hadn't followed George that closely, and I am now
(re)discovering his work.

It is a double CD, with I think around 40 minutes and 8 tracks per CD.
It goes for about $25 (probably more in national chains).

The selection is mainly "greatest hits" including both Beatles
and solo stuff.  The arrangements are VERY much like the originals
which is either good or bad, depending on your point of view.
George went so far as to play a "sample" from the intro of the
Beatles's Taxman (one two three four <cough> one two three FOUR!>
Of course there are additional guitar solos, etc.

BTW, I didn't listen closely, but I think there are strings on
Piggies.  Are those synthesized?

As the album cover states, it is George Harrison with the
Eric Clapton band (or something like that).  They style was
very tight - again largely a duplication of the records.
To my untrained ear, the recording itself was done well.

There has been some discussion as to who is playing what.
Someone thought/knew that George played parts from the original
record and Eric played the added solos.

The negative comments I heard are that the arrangements were
the same as the record, and that George's voice is not what
it used to be.  Both are true - as far as his voice goes, I
thought it sounded good (relatively speaking for George).
His "If I Needed Someone" sounds a LOT better than what he sang
live with the Beatles when in Japan (a clip is shown in
the The Compleat Beatles - George is really off key, and he
knows it)

Actually, and I BET you never expected this, I was there and was
sitting behind the young lady (Mary McC) who bought it on behalf of
her father - Paul.

In the UK it is not normal (but could be done) to shuffle number
plates between cars.  The cream VW LMW 281F for sale that day WAS the
car.  As I recall (no flames) it belonged to someone who lived in the
flats across the road, and its "provenance" was impeccable.

There you are!

Probably, little to none.  Vinyl albums from South/Central America
are generally in the same condition, (vinyl thick enough to be used
as a frisbee, xeroxed covers) and are regularly sold in the $3.00 to
$5.00 range.  Even at that price, you would have a hard time unloading
the things to anyone except a collector who wants copies of the various
releases from each country.  (There are a few out there)

The other possibility is that they are counterfeit, which would negate
even that minimal value.   Basically, they are interesting (minimally)
as a novelty, but have no real value...

They would sell a zillion of them, especially if they added a 
bonus track that was not on the LP.   They probably do have

I quite clearly hear "Block that kick!" AND "Hold that line!" being shouted
by the crowd in different parts of the song, and it sounds exactly like it
was recorded from an American football game.  However, I have heard people
claim that the shout is "Block that Nixon" rather than "Block that kick".

I have a vague memory of having seen the entire tape, though I may
be mixing this up with another notorious Stones film whose name I
will not mention here.

If "Rock and Roll Circus" is the correct video, then I recall that it
was slightly less coherent than "Magical Mystery Tour" but certainly
every bit as historically important.

I hope the Stones can work through the muddle of its ownership on day.

I know this is heresy in this group, but personally, I'll be just as happy to
have a CD containing only songs I've never heard before.  I've always been
unhappy about paying big bucks for a bootleg that contains one song I haven't
heard along with a dozen outtakes of songs I *have* heard.  In general I'm
perfectly satisfied with the Beatles' and/or GM's judgment about which is the
best version of something.  (_Let It Be_ is a special case.)
