Paul's Hofner. Yeah, baby!
Me too!, its always been one of my dreams..but which one, he had a few.. :
Actually, any! And, actually, ANY Hofner bass would do!There's a shop on Bleeker St. in the Village (NYC, right across from Ray's pizza) that has had one in the window forever. I don't have the umption to just go and buy it (I don't play bass, but how hard can it be, right?), but maybe one day I will. Unless Paul gives me one of his ...

The master tape of the 27 minute 'Helter Skelter'
oooh, i wanna change mine now, i want a recording of the Carnival of Light
Yeah, 'Carnival Of Light' would definately be nice to own, but to be honest, i'm not much into all that mumbo jumbo avant-garde stuff like 'Revolution #9', so i'd probably give it a listen and shelve it forever.I know i'd break out a copy of the 'Helter Skelter' once in awhile to party to.
If the edited 12 minute version on Anthology 3 is anything to go by, I really don't understand why anyone would be so desperate for the 27 minute version! It was recorded on the same day, so I expect they're pretty similar.
