New Beatle Album 1970!
« on: July 18, 2006, 11:27:14 AM »

As per our discussion here: http://dmbeatles.com/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-albums/m-1153138287/

Please compile a new Beatle album based on the solo material they released in 1970 - 14 tracks per album.

The best compilation will be burned onto to CD and sent to the winner as a sort of prize thing!

Remember - it's supposed to be a fun thing so no need to get heavy (flower)



John:
1970: Plastic Ono Band

Paul
1970: McCartney

George:
1970: All Things Must Pass
As ATMP was three discs, I suggest we take disc 1 only for 1970, 2 for 1971 and 3 for 1972.

Ringo:
1970: Sentimental Journey and Beaucoups Of Blues

I hate to mention it, but isn't John's work pretty depressing at that time? All kind of downer stuff.

Maybe he would have felt differently if the band hadn't split up.

I think those tracks work best as solo pieces - very powerful personal statements - and don't really represent The Beatles very well.

Just thinking out loud.

Same problem I mentioned before. John's doom and gloom juxtaposed to Paul's incessant ebullience is jarring. Also, the Boys weren't really doing covers later on, so I don't think 'If Not For You' is much of a fit.

So far I like Mr. Mustard's picks best.

Thanks for the comment, Klang.

I included "If Not For You", b/c it's one of the best tracks among any of the four LPs - especially in re: a Beatle-y sounding tune.  Besides, everyone so far has included at least one track for Ringo and both Sentimental Journey and Beaucoups of Blues are all covers (BoB is essentially a covers LP b/c none of the songs on it were written by JPG or R). 

It's a difficult task to compile a decent and cohesive "Beatles" LP from just their 1970 releases.
