That's the one Bob. In the liner notes for the CD it said this particular version was quite long and sprang from an impromptu jam session.
I really like this version.
While pondering in the pong room the other day I thought to myself "Dan if you could have either the complete works of Elvis and the Beach Boys or your choice of any three beatles albums which would you choose"? "Well!" I replied to myself, having a little procrastinate about Elvis in '56 to '58 .. "Revolver Abbey Road and Anthology would be nice.. and with the yank out the way maybe finally Paul could get his crown." mmmm
I would like to offer a surprised thumbs up to "Love". This album has only recently been released and contains all the "classics" re-mixed. Now ordinarily that would sound like a recipe for disaster but these have been re-mixed by George Martin and his son Giles fom the original master recordings. There have been some additions and slight changes to some of the songs but every sound is from an original Beatles master tape. The only exception being a new strings score composed by George Martin for "While my guitar gently weeps" which actually improves the song.
The result is a set of classic Beatles' songs that sound like they were written and released in modern times and yet still have exactly the same feel as the originals. Definitely worth a listen.
