I have 2 favourites that missed your CD
No Reply & I'll Be Back
I knew it that something would be missing.
Well, back in the 80's, a compilation called 'Beatles Ballads' has been issued on a record by Parlophone - and interesting, never pressed on a CD officially.
Track list:
Yesterday
Norwegian Wood
Do You Want To Know A Secret
For No One
Michelle
Nowhere Man
You've Got To Hide Your Love Away
Across The Universe
All My Loving
Hey Jude
Something
The Fool On The Hill
Till There Was You
The Long And Winding Road
Here Comes The Sun
Blackbird
And I Love Her
She's Leaving Home
Here, There And Everywhere
Let It BeA good selection. I must say that I didn't thought of 'Hey Jude' as ballad - probably because of Paul's shouting in the fade-out - but, yes, it starts as ballad - Paul sings and plays the piano,
then guitar and tambourine come in, and later, the drums.
Also, on my list, I've put
I Me Mine because I really like the tune & orchestration - although
For You Blue is more gentle - but it has that 'bluesy' sound which I don't fancy that much.
