Great mix. I might have thought about including McCartney's "Temporary Secretary", but that would have just broken up the band all over again.

oh I've thought about this idea for a long time and I think you did (as expected) a great job, right now I don't have any other songs in mind but I maybe come back ;)

great mix and I guess I would use the same tracks, and maybe try and squeeze "Working class hero" in there somewhere.

Really fine choices, I'd Iike to be listening to this right now.....

A very worthy obsession and great mix. It was interesting to see the Beatles ranked number two for Artist Total Tracks in Lennart's AOTM statistics lists. I wonder if you added the solo work would they jump ahead of Radiohead.

Outstanding!

Interesting. Not a fan of 'Mull of Kintyre' Rob?

looks great although i'm familiar with only about half of these.

Spectacular! I've made a comp very similar to this in my head several times over the eyars, trying to pull from the first year or two of post Beatles albums. I'm surprised you didn't include "All Things Must Pass" - which actually was originally written for the Beatles. I support any excuse to make a Beatles mix or Beatles related mix.

I've pondered this one as well Rob. Appears as though I can think about something else now as this looks pretty diffinitive. Why not swipe a title from Thee Mighty Caesars, Surely They Were The Sons Of God?

great inclusion of id have you anytime, definitely missing lovely linda and i found out, brilliant mix

About a year ago, I was going to make a mix like this and post it simultaneously with a mix compilation of tracks from the four infamous KISS "solo" albums. Never got around to that though.

A classic, Rob. Great stuff, mister.

Neat-o idea. Clearly, this would have had to be a triple album.

Great mix Rob! If I had made this mix I def. had included Harrisons Wah-wah & Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp (Let It Roll) & McCartney's Oo You & his good rockin Eat at home (just for fun)...........and Lennon's Oh Yoko! is a killer-track in my lttle world;)

Very cool Rob. This makes a pretty great Beatles album I think.

Nice one, Rob. Looks like great listening. Would Ringo & George really have been allowed that many tracks? ;)

A great "classic fan activity" indeed. Count me with Mike the Pike in needing "Wah-wah" or "Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp (Let It Roll)"........the challenge, I guess, is to keep it to one disc (album)...although a double or triple wouldn't be difficult. It does look like "great listening."

I've always enjoyed listening to those first few albums by the individual Beatles (post Let It Be), but had never considered an exercise like this one! Wonderfully inspired, Rob...if you ever get around to burning it, I'd love to hear it!

What a great idea, and the execution is top-notch as well.

40 years ago today. Or yesterday. Or soon. Whatever. I wonder when the Beatles will stop being THE band. Maybe never. Fun mix. Too bad Ringo wouldn't record "Back Off Boogaloo" for a few years.

Brilliant.

I have contemplated doing a "fantasy Beatles album" several times over the last few years but can never quite bring myself to do it. Last time I considered it, I was only going to use tracks from 1970 albums (and "It Don't Come Easy") and all the George stuff was going to be pre-Spectorized boot material, as I think that would match the production of "Plastic Ono Band" and "McCartney." I think I'm going to burn myself a copy of your comp.

Oh, how I love 'Jealous Guy' and 'God' and 'Just Gimme Some Truth'. (I am really not gonna make it to Steelyville if I keep pulling over at every town that looks intriguing...) I am totally lost.

am I totally alone in this, or does anyone out there like to "toy" with ideas concerning actual Beatles albums releases but released in-what may have been at that time-alternately considered configurations. For example, George Martin-the TRUE fifth Beatle, had often stated that the White Album would have made a terrific single album...has anyone ever tried to configurate such a possibility with their CD-ROM imaginary album capability? How about re-sequencing the entire Sgt. Pepper album (except for the beginning and very end)to accomodate the inclusion of Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane which were the start of a new album at the time of their recording? Another one is what the "let it Be" album project could have turned out like if the band was a bit more "interested" as it were....picture it as a conciously concieved massive double album project where the band knew, and let their fans know, that it was going to be their final album release ever-some of it's inclusions not on the album we know in the real world could have been the finished versions of songs like All Things Must Pass (which could have also evolved into the album's name), Old Brown Shoe as well as various Abbey Road tracks they were working on at these sessions like Oh! Darling, Maxwell, octopus's Garden as well as a smattering of works in progress etc. I even thought of what a Beatle album may have sounded like from early 1969 if the songs for Tellow Submarine were actually written and recorded but the movie project had never existed...take these four songs and add some of the oddities that had never gotten released (up to that point in time) like Mary Jane You Know My Name, Goodbye (ignore the gender perspective)-add one of the many alternate versions of Across The Universe, the acoustic While My guitar Gently Weeps-and for good measure, fly in the heretofore unheard Leave My Kitten Alone and That Means a Lot and there you go...the Beatles very own version of Odds and Sodds as released at the start of 1969. Any response to this craziness??
