The Beatles Anthology: 3
Description
Anthology 3 documents the fractious Beatles years from 1968 to the end. Apple
Records was launched ironically as the quartet were splintering into different
units; to put it one way, they were increasingly solo artists appearing as
session musicians on each others songs, or to look at it another way, they
were already peering over the horizon at the post-Beatle world. There were no
reconstructed and heavily overdubbed demos from which to create ‘new’ singles,
but plenty of alternate takes from the white album, “Abbey Road”, and “Let It
Be” (with John spoiling the seriousness of a run-through of the title track by
cheerfully calling Paul a bounder and a cheat!) as well as early versions of
“All Things Must Pass” and “Not Guilty”, which George wrote and later recorded
properly on two of his solo albums in the 70s; and Paul’s versions of “Step
Inside Love” and “Come And Get It”, which became hits respectively for Cilla
Black and Badfinger. The others include a rock’n’roll medly included during
the difficult “Let It Be” sessions – Jive Bunny, Status Quo, you weren’t the
first, were you – and an amusing version of “Get Back”, with Paul ad-libbing
vocals at the end just as the police were coming to order them off the roof
during that famous last live open-air performance in January 1969. The main
exclusive is John Lennon’s “What’s the New Mary Jane”, a much-hyped ‘rarity’
which had been rumored as a possible Plastic Ono Band single at the time –
featuring John, George, Yoko and roadie Mal Evans, but neither Paul nor Ringo.
