Beatles Rarity Of The Week – That’s The Way It Goes (re-mix)

Posted by on May 25, 2009 at 7:53 am.

For this Memorial Day week’s Beatles Rarity Of The Week, I’m remembering an album by George Harrison that did not enjoy much commercial success but yet had a few really good gems on it. The album, released in October of 1982, was called Gone Troppo and one of these gems is a song called That’s The Way It Goes. The sales of this album was such a discouragement that George took a few years off after it’s release. He made his comeback like gangbusters however, with his 1987 CD release Cloud Nine. It was during this comeback that he released a single from the album of the well-known hit When We Was Fab which contained a remix of That’s The Way It Goes as a b-side. This remix version supports some varying instrumentation and is a little bassier. Since this single was only released in the UK (on CD and 12 inch vinyl) and is now long out of print, I considered it “rarity material” and am happy to feature it as this week’s BROW.

Also, for you George Harrison fans, be looking for the new compilation Let It Roll with newly remastered recordings of George’s best from his solo years.
