The Hey Bulldog Footage
dylanjohn:
We've all seen the Hey Bulldog clip before. I have a few questions, and thoughts about that shoot.
I've never thought of this, but where is the rest of that footage? That clip was edited together from what looks like
lots of footage/shots of that session. Has anyone found more, can confirm that is what destroyed, or thought of this before?
Also, have recently been into Abbey Road Studio 2, on that tour in the spring I was wondering...
That session was completely recorded there? A few shots, especially those looking up, look like another studio.
Maybe 3? I don't think so, but it would be great if someone could confirm. Becaues of the lighting it's hard to tell.

Not sure mate. I think I read in a book that the recording taking place during the filming is actually of Lady Madonna, but don't hold me to that.

You are correct. It is Lady Madonna footage.
Bobber:
They were filmed while they were recording Lady Madonna. This footage was used to put under Hey Bulldog, so that's why the synchronity is not working at all.
Ken Wood:
Oh wait - wasn`t it the other way around? This the story from the top of my head:
The Beatles were due to mime for a promo clip to go with their Lady Madonna release.
Once in the studio they figured it would be more fun to record a completly new song: Hey Bulldog.
So they were filmed doing this and afterwards the footage was edited to go along Lady Madonna.
Decades later Apple re-released this footage, this time re-edited and synched to the actual song seen recorded: Hey Bulldog.
And no, I don`t think this comes from more than one occassion or studio - what might have puzzled you is the fact that in Anthology this footage is also used but in combination with the "Music"-footage (that shows them recording Hey Jude).
Correct me if I misremembered!
