Hi all,

Just discovered the board -- very cool.  Don't know which board various things go on (there's not one for "what if" sepcifically, so ...

For a long time, I thought about running solo tracks together to get the albums they might've done, had they just taken a cooling-off period and gotten back to it.  iPod makes these things easy, so I "produced" 5 albums.  Here's the first -- I hope you like the idea, even if I've butchered the chronology a bit.  I tried.

All Things Must Pass (Released November 1970)
Side 1
Instant Karma
My Sweet Lord
Every Night
Beware of Darkness
Man We Was Lonely
Love
Maybe I’m Amazed

Side 2
Mother
Teddy Boy
Working Class Hero
Isolation
Junk
God
All Things Must Pass

Thoughts?  Peace.

Seeing My Sweet Lord and God on the same album would be quite a treat.

Lovely line-up, walrus_21! Welcome to the forums.


All you've got to do is choose love.  That's how I live it now.  I learned a long time ago, I can feed the birds in my garden.  I can't feed them all. -- Ringo Starr, Rolling Stone magazine, May 2007

We've been expecting you, walrus_21! Welcome!

As for the cd- great combinations of songs! Will be really interesting to hear how it sounds all together one after the other, like.

Hi Walrus-21, welcome to the show. Many have tried to make albums like you did. Have a look here for instance: http://dmbeatles.com/forums/b-albums/m-1153222280/

Welcome Walrus_21. I'd take out Isolation and put in It Don't Come Easy.


I just want you to reassure him - talk to him, make him see the error of his ways. Then I'll hit him.

Thanks for all the welcomes; nice to hear.

Bobber -- yeah, I know it's not an original idea.  I was kind of surprised to plow through the message boards, though, and not see other versions.  So, this is mine.  And everyone will have ideas on how they could've been different, including ...

BlueMeanie -- watch for my next album for "It Don't Come Easy."  

I'll move this one and the others to another thread with a title better than "new member."  A few of these albums -- dare I say -- would be every bit as good as the ones we hold near and dear and near.  

Cheers, all.

Hi all,

Some members saw this under the dull and misleading thread name "new member."  Yes, I'm new to the board.  As I said there, I have put together 5 post-breakup albums, just imagining what I thought the Fabs might sound like in the early '70s, had they taken a break rather than, well, break up.  
I welcome all suggestions or observations.  The chronology of songs on the solo albums and singles might not mesh perfectly with my "releases," but I tried.  
I give you the first -- All Things Must Pass


All Things Must Pass (Released November 1970)
Side 1
Instant Karma
My Sweet Lord
Every Night
Beware of Darkness
Man We Was Lonely
Love
Maybe I’m Amazed

Side 2
Mother
Teddy Boy (the one off Anthology -- makes me laugh)
Working Class Hero
Isolation
Junk
God
All Things Must Pass

I think we'd agree that George came into his own on Abbey Road (and before), and while I don't want to invent discussions and arguments (saving that for my screenplay!), I think that John and Paul might've given him his due, with an album title and a single.  
The others will follow.  Too much information on a double release.

I used to love making track lineups post-Beatles era. Yours looks great walrus_21! I may burn myself another using your track list.

By far the strongest set I think.

It is easy to sit back and think what if.
