Which was on the end of Helter Skelter.

What's the meaning of this?

[pc31]

it means he had blisters......too much stick gripping.....

[pc31]

look john and phil spinchter......

NOTE: The longest song The Beatles ever recorded was Helter Skelter. This long yet still unreleased version is 27 minutes 11 seconds long. When you listen to the five minute released version, at the end, the song fades away, then cuts back ending with Ringo saying. "I've got blisters on my fingers," conveying his thoughts, after the 27 minute version.

[In Blue Hawaii]

Yeah, I'm going to wait for Anthology 4 for that 27-minute version. Plus "Carnival Of Light" of course..

[somedude210]

wait, theres a anthology 4 coming out? when is this happening, cause i'd buy it just to listen to a 27 minute Helter Skelter.

and was that really ringo on the end? i thought it sounded more like john.

[Mendips]

It was Ringo.

Sometimes when John spoke with a deep voice he sounded  like Ringo.
For example, I was listening to Live at the BBC yesterday and in a little speech called
A LITTLE RHYME
John speaks in a deep voice but you'd almost swear it was Ringo!

I think that's actually wishful thinking on blue's part rather than an EMI/Apple decision. Sadly

Isn't this 27 minute version available on bootlegs? Juniorsfarm?

I've sought it out forever and haven't been able to find anything. This is one of the few rarities that somehow has stayed out of the hands of bootleggers so far, at least as far as I know. It might get tedious, but I'd love to hear it.

i knew it was long but didnt know about the 27 mins o_O i wonder if theres bootleg, there most likely is

[The End]

i wonder if theres bootleg, there most likely is

As Juniorsfarm said, nope there ain't one yet.

[Bobber]

There is a 9:38 version on 'Alternate Takes: Helter Skelter'. Bootlegzone however thought it might be fake.

[Bruno]

In the Anthology Directors Cut dvd there's an interview with George Martin, Derek and Neil; and George mentions the 27 min. Helter Skelter. He said it was 'boring' and too damn long to be included in the Anthology 3 album

[Indica]

Damn you George

[The End]

I've always wanted to hear the full version of Revolution #1 - the one with all of the "all rights" in it that were later used for Rev #9.

I think the time has come seriously (although it may take another good ten years knowing Apple and EMI) for "Anthology 4" - enough time has passed (10 years) for them to put together a package with items that fans have been demanding. Finish up John's other demo "Now And Then" and have Ringo and Paul clean up the recording, throw on stuff like the 27 minute "Helter Skelter" and "Carnival of Light" and a lot of the other odds and sods which didn't make the ANTHOLOGY and put out a mini box set containing all this stuff. I'd buy a copy and I'm sure a lot of others would too.

[The End]

I agree with you 10,000%!!!

Gets frustrating doesn't it?
