One of the nicest collections by the Beatles, released in 1970 late in their career, Hey Jude(The Beatles Again), even if not an « official UK release », has always been a favourite among Beatles aficionados. The Lp consists of singles & b-sides, most of them never released on LP. The compilation is chronological, and gives the occasional fan a good overview of the Beatles career. The recordings of Hey Jude and I Should Have Known Better are completely different mixes... You start off at the optimistic peak of Beatlemania and close with the sarcastic bitter end with Lennon worrying about being crucified. In between you get a taste of their insanely brilliant psychedelia ("Rain"), their brilliant political rock ("Revolution"), their brilliant emotional depth ("Don't Let Me Down"), and the most brilliant guitar solo in their whole catalog (contained in "Old Brown Shoe")...As a record it works quite well, and given the Beatles genius, especially in the area of creating exquisite and ultra-progressive singles, it comes as no suprise. The bass guitar sound on this record is especially revolutionary. "Paperback Writer" works particularly well, not having aged at all in all the years after its release. A couple of recent tracks, "Old Brown Shoe" and "The Ballad of John And Yoko," make their vinyl debut here, and as usual give the consumer excellent value for the money. "Old Brown Shoe" is one of George Harrison's great lost classics, and the Beatles ensemble playing on this track belies the tension that was prevalent during the group's final days.
