Granada is commercial, but the ratio of programme:adverts in the UK is
much bigger than in the US.  The actual time of a UK one hour

I guess that the  US lost 10-15 minutes of a very good programme.

Hi guys, 

I've been doing some research on one of the Beatle imitation bands, 1964
as the Beatles. I knew that there was some sort of lawsuit from Apple
Corps Ltd. against this band, but wasnt too sure what it was.

From everything I have and understand (legal documents), Apple Records has
been asking this band to quit appropriating the Beatles persona - same as
Beatlemania did. Since they didn't, Apple sued this band. They still are
performing, though, but wont announce their dates publically. If anyone 
sees them, or knows or can get announcements or ticket copies of whatever,
proof that they performed at a place, please let me know. As I know
Steve Carter said once, only the Beatles (JPGR) have a right to the name
and to their own persona, so if you want to help them keep their uniqueness
please let me know. I'm looking currently for a way to get in touch with
Apple itself - they are still functioning, if anyone has any addresses or
phone numbers, please also let me know. 

Thanks.

In my Strawberry Fields Forever article a few months back, I pointed
out that the alleged "take 25" on Unsurpassed Masters is a fake made
from two tracks of take 26-- it contains a track not recorded until
26.  I agree that the originator(s) of the tape used for the bootleg
had 4 track tapes and made stereo mixes from them.  This is not to say
that the bootlegger has them though.  My imperfect understanding is
that these things usually pass through several hands as tapes before
they reach someone who decides to press CDs (or LPs).

Sounds like take 1.  The released version is takes 7 and 26.  One of
the Unsurpassed Masters has take 1 and some of the others.

Hi.  I'm brand-new at this, so please be kind!
There's a new remake - the Grateful Dead doing Tomorrow Never Knows paired with 
The Who's Baba O'Reilly.  Did anyone hear it over past summer tour?  IMHO, it
truly captures the same haunting, questioning quality found in the original.
Comments?

Yes, I have them all, I think.
The first one is referred to as SFF take 1 and is on one of the Ultra Rare Trax
albums. No. 5 I think.
It is also on Unsurpassed Masters vol x (maybe 2 or 3).

Well, if the two-track tapes that we all hear (UM, URT, etc) were able to
get out of EMI, so why not the four track (or eight, 16, 24, 48, ... track...)

I have to say this, but what's the difference between Tiffany doing
Beatles songs, and the Beatles doing Chuck Berry songs?

No real difference.  It is a way for subsequent generations to get to
know the music of earlier generations.  

If the Fabs and the Stones had not covered (eg) Berry and Waters, then
my life wouldhave been without their recordings.

I always thought that Paul played drums on this track, but when I went to
look it up in my Abbey Road liner notes I found it didn't say. Tracking it
through Lewisholm, Ringo is the only drummer mentioned for this track.

So, I, as the originator of this thread, suggest we knock it on the head.

Hi!! Just the other day, while I was collecting my Red & Blue LPs 
(yeah, over here, we have to specially order it 'coz it contains banned 
materials *8), anyway, I caught a glimpse of a Yoko Ono's album.  I've 
forgotten the LP title, but I do remember that there is a pair of Lennon's 
specs appearing on the front cover.  There are visible blood stains on the 
glasses, as John Lennon was wearing it on the fateful night.  
On the back cover, there is this lovely poem printed at the bottom.  I thought 
that I could have simply memorised it that day, but I failed miserably.  So I 
was wondering if any kind rmb'ers out there could possibly upload or e-mail it 
to me??  Many thanks in advance!!

BTW, are the songs nice??  I have no past experience with Yoko Ono's materials, 
but I'm curious to know if it is a good LP to collect.

That wasn't implied in my original post -- I happen to, if not exactly
>like< Yoko's work, at least respect the fact that she was doing
things years if not decades before others made them popular. It's
perfectly possible to recognize the influence someone has had without
necessarily liking their work -- John Cage is a good example.

And some of her work -- including the two songs I named in my original
post -- I do like, or why would I be asking? Anyway, I don't
understand why one's taste in music should offend anyone else, but
then, I don't understand the humor-impaired in general.

What WAS implied in my original post is that Onobox, along with many
boxed sets, is not especially necessary, and far beyond the means of
many people (like me) who are at least mildly interested in what she's
done. The one-disc sampler, which I did get, is great, but completely
lacking in any kind of discographical (I don't think that was a word
until just now) information.

In any case, I have what I need, or the closest I'm going to come to
it, so thanks.

It's from the "Radio Dinner" LP. It came out around '73 or '74. Haven't  
seen it in a store (on LP or CD or whatever) in years. What a great  
recording! The Lennon voice was done by Tony Hendra, I think, who played  
the British manager in This is Spinal Tap.

Yes, I've got it!  The story about Paul  having sex with a groupie, and he
keeps telling her to "say it! say it!  which one am i?"  Finally she says
"the cute one" and he climaxes.
 
And the "Let's Lick B.M." ads patterned after anti-drug ads, showing pathetic
B.M. (Beatlemania) sufferers, like a tattered, strung-out looking woman in a
corner nursing a Ringo doll, and a hippie-guy strumming a homemade sitar of
plywood and rubber bands.
 
And then the "discovery" that much of Lennon's material was really written
by an old black folk artist, as some of his early writings are unearthed
("I ain't beliebin' in de Magic, I ain't beliebin' in I Ching").  
 
What a laugh!

   No, actually most of the time it's a way for record companies to ensure
that a new artist has some recognizable songs on an album.  When it's not
it's generally a remaking of the song, different from the original.
