Beatles Update

'Lost' Beatles track could finally be heard - CNN.com: "LONDON, England (CNN) -- A 'lost' Beatles track recorded in 1967 and performed just once in public could finally be released, according to Paul McCartney.

'Carnival of Light' -- a 14-minute experimental track recorded at the height of the Beatles' musical experimentations with psychedelia and inspired by avant-garde composers such as Karlheinz Stockhausen -- has long been considered too adventurous for mainstream audiences.

In an interview for BBC radio, McCartney said his bandmates and their producer George Martin had vetoed its inclusion on the exhaustive 1990s 'Anthology' collection, according to UK's The Observer newspaper.

Well, hell, if "Revolution #9" could be put on THE BEATLES, why hold that back from THE ANTHOLOGY?

Not another letdown like "Free As a Bird," I hope.

From what the article says, this one will at least be a lot different if not better.
