The Beatles - 1968 - Primal Colours (Unreleased Album)

 

This is a fascinating piece. An intended album release from 1968, which was pulled at the last minute. Contains some classic cuts. Many of these tracks would, later see the light of day, in slightly different form, in the wonderful White Album released later in 1968.

 

01. Brian Epstein Blues

02. Back In The U.S.S.R.

03. A Case of The Blues

04. Blackbird

05. Piggies

06. Birthday

07. Yer Blues

08. Mother Natures Son

12. Junk

13. Honey Pie

14. Old Brown Shoe

 

This is actually just a bootleg, the Beatles never intended any record to actually come out in this configuration. Old Brown Shoe wasn't even written until 1969 a year after these other songs were released. And poor as their quality control may have been on the White Album, I'm pretty sure no matter how strong the weed they weed they were smoking they'd have never thought about actually releasing Brian Epstein's Blues.
