Unreleased Beatles Recording Discovered
July 30th, 2008
A man cleaning out the loft of his elderly father’s home in Liverpool has discovered a tape of music by The Beatles that has never been released. The reel-to-reel tape, approximately 30 minutes long, contains a number of unreleased versions of “I Feel Fine” and “I’m a Loser”. At one point in the tape, the band can be heard bursting into fits of laughter during an interrupted take of “I’ll Follow the Sun”. Beatles blog Wogew reports that the material was most likely recorded for the BBC TV programme ‘Top Gear’ in 1964. The tape is to be auctioned next month and is expected to go for between $16,000 to $24,000.
