"Peace Of Mind":- Blatant Forgery or Undiscovered Beatles Song

By Patrick MacKeown

I used to be in the habit of picking up Beatle bootlegs whenever I came across them in various fairs or dodgy record stores around the country. These second, third or even fourth generation tapes had usually been transferred from some bootleg vinyl, and would invariably vary in quality from laughingly nowhere-near-CD-quality to distant muffled singing over the sound of several bags of hissing snakes.

These tapes usually contained out-takes, rehearsals or demos of previously released The Beatles material, and as such not only provided me with a unique insight into the song-writing and recording processes of the Fab Four, but also of their musical ability, and indeed lack of in some cases.

Occasionally though, you would find a real little gem, such as a previously unreleased song, and that was always a thrill. Sometimes you could understand why these songs were dumped, like the truly awful

While the link to the song is dead on the original article, you can listen to "Candle Burns (Peace of Mind)" at: http://www.myspace.com/thecandleburns. Additionally, you can watch a "fake" video for the song at: http://www.youtube.com

Everything. Looking for something?  :)
By the way, I know of a complete album with this kind of stuff, including Have You Heard The Word. It's something like 'The Fake Beatles', although not everybody is always certain that it's fake. I got a song of a Dutch band called Smyle and the song is It's Gonna Be Alright. They're pretending they're The Beatles as well.

OK.
I've listened to both the sources you gave.
It doesn't sound like the Beatles and it doesn't sound like Pink Floyd.
I don't know if it's Trash but there's no trace of a Scottish accent.
It's nice as far as it goes but probably, as you say, just some Apple hopefuls.

The cover was 'stolen' from a Canadian album called "Very Together", comprised of the Tony Sheridan material. It was released just after the "Paul Is Dead" thing became such a big deal--hence the cryptic "Very Together" title with one candle burned out.
