Beatles Rarity Of The Week – Yellow Submarine (special effects track)
It’s time for this week’s BROW. As you likely know, it was fairly customary for John Lennon and Paul McCartney to pen a song together, for Ringo to sing, on whatever album they happened to be working on at the time. During the Revolver sessions of 1966, John had a verse melody in mind for [...]

Beatles Rarity Of The Week – Her Majesty (out-take)
