The Beatles - 'Get Back - 1st 1969 Glyn Johns Version' Remastered Edition CD

The Beatles 'Get Back' CD. The history behind the recording of this unreleased album by The Beatles is a long and interesting story. I shall briefly describe it's origins here but much more detailed information is avialable on the internet.

'Get Back' is the ill-fated, unreleased studio album which The Beatles began recording in January 1969 as a follow up to the 'White Album'. The idea was to produce a back to basics live sounding album which would NOT use increasingly complex effects such as those featured on 'Sgt Pepper' and the 'White Album' but rather to concentrate on live, group musicianship. The album was originally produced by Glyn Johns, The Beatles long standing engineer but the project was rejected and eventually shelved. Sometime later the project was handed to Phil Spector who produced the final released version of the album which had now become 'Let It Be'. The album was nothing like as The Beatles had originally intended and was heavily over produced by Spector. By the time 'Let It Be' was released The Beatles were all but finished. This CD is a bootleg, remastered edition of the original unreleased 1969 Glyn Johns (version one) album. 

The package included here is one of the finest bootlegs I have ever seen. As the album was unreleased it is designed to look like a promotional acetate copy destined for review purposes.

The package includes:

• Original 'Get Back' designed cover with sleeve notes on the rear telling the story of the 'Get Back' album.

• Accurate reproduction Apple acetate CD label design.

• 'Fresh From Apple' double sided insert promoting the new album. With sleeve notes by Mal Evans.

• 'Apple Records' promotional poster. These originally came with a select few 'Let It Be' box sets.

• Back cover with track listing and photographs from the 'Get Back' rooftop concert.

All in perfect MINT condition.
