MUSIC SIGNPOSTS ON THE WEB'S LONELY ROAD

(71)

The BROW is coming to you early this week due to me being in travel mode for the rest of the week. This version of Paul's She Came In Through The Bathroom Window was recorded at a rehearsal at Apple studios on Jan. 29, 1969 during the Get Back sessions, just one day before the infamous rooftop gig seen in the Let It Be film and well before it saw it's final form on the Abbey Road album released some eight months later. The tempo is much slower and bluesier here and there is a lot more guitar from George and although the enthusiasm was lacking in comparison to the official version, it is interesting to see how the song was taking shape at this early stage.

Want to make a suggestion for a future Beatles Rarity of the Week? Then let me hear from you. To help you decide you could visit my Beatles collection web site (www.MyBeatlesCollection.com) and hit the “Tracks” button and search my collection, then Mogmail me with what you’d like me to feature.

Fascinating, as always. It sounds like one of the endless Get Back outtakes.

I like this more than the official version.
