Hey guys, I took a Beatles project on where I went through all their bootlegs and demos to see if I could create some "lost albums" since the thought of there never being new Beatle music was kind of sad. I posted back in December and January, but have since revisited and improved the project for the final time.
Anyway here they are: the lost albums,
https://mega.nz/#F!KF5GQCoD!ky6aIQuaeIkrqJ9N74idSg
Road to Rishikesh: Acoustic album, made from mostly White Album sessions. Idea being an album they could sing literally on the way to their India trip.
Strawberry Fields: Kind of an artistic statement, Rubber Soul through Sgt. Pepper sessions.
Get Back: Sort of companion album to Let it Be. Standard fare. All from Get Back sessions.
Monkey Business: Inspired by Beach Boys Party! I cut up some outtakes reels to make skits. Idea being George Martin slowly losing control of a Beatles recording session. Material from various sessions from 64-69.
Might have to already be a biggish Beatle fan to like these, but if you are it should be like Christmas. Hope you have half as much fun listening as I had making them.

Sounds fun, thank you OP.
I do the same thing with Dylan, glad I'm not the only one.

>>71408312
That sounds neat. Would you like to share any of it?

Downloaded Monkey Business a while ago, enjoyed it

The holy grail of unofficial music is Carnival of Light
It's rumored to be out there somewhere but nobody has found it yet
>>

I wonder how much stuff will come to light when Paul/Yoko/Ringo are all dead.

Who is the holdout anyways? I know they have an agreement where all 4 of the surviving families have to agree to release stuff. I'm pretty sure Paul and Ringo are all for releasing Carnival of Light, so it's either George's wife or Yoko.

>>71408658
It would only need Yoko and Ringo, Paul wants to release it but they won't let him.
>>
>>71408703
Probably George's wife.
> "Carnival of Light" has not yet appeared on any official Beatles release. In 1996, McCartney tried to release the track on the compilation album The Beatles Anthology 2, but George Harrison voted to reject it.[5] According to McCartney, the reason was that "he didn't like avant garde music" and referred to avant garde as 'avant garde a clue'

Enjoy!

Best I can do. I think it's the artwork of a greatest hit or bootleg from the 70s.
>>
>>71408658
Don't forget George Harrison's widow, she don't wanna release Carnival of Lights in George's respect since he didn't like the song

>Road to Rinkesh
You mean the Esher Demos? They are amazing

Well let's just say what I ended up with feels a lot different from what I started with. The problem with the countless bootlegs is they were never a concise listening experience top to bottom, because they weren't mean to be. That's what my project was for.

Edit: I forgot, there is ONE bootleg that stood on its own as an album and I decided never to alter or borrow from it for this reason: Beware of ABKCO. To anyone in this thread who didn't know about it, download it.
>>
>>71413181
Why should I stay away from ABKCO?
>>
>>71415186
They're out for your shekels, I guess.

OK final bump and I'll let this disappear with the dust of the internet.
