The Beatles - Everyday Chemistry (The 'Recently Discovered' Complete Beatles Album)



My new thing of the day: The faux Beatles album "Everyday Chemistry."
Check out the album here at thebeatlesneverbrokeup.com.

This album is presented as an undiscovered completed eleven-song Beatles album, only now surfacing. The reality, of course, is by the use of 'magical' computer technology and clever splicing, a certain 'James Richards' has made an album that contains quite a few tracks with Paul McCartney + John Lennon singing to mashed up old Beatles clips pieced together to form new, listenable, and even semi-believable tunes.

I think it's worth a listen.

I liked 'Soldier Boy,' and really liked the piano-y sad spirited 'Over the Ocean,' which kinda...for lack of better description...makes me feel nostalgic about a time that never really happened; When listening to this song, I'm left wondering what direction the Beatles would have gone if they were resurrected back as youths and started making new songs.* I also passively wonder what they would think of modern electronic music, the mark they have left on pop music and where popular music 'is' now.

I personally am a big Beatles fan.

My favorite albums are the stereotypical choices 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club' and 'The White Album.'

My favorite less-popular real Beatles songs are: Don't Let Me Down, Good Night, Cry Baby Cry, Mother Nature's Son, Real Love, Here There Everywhere, Julia, amongst many others.

*many people may say the answer to this question is "Tame Impala," a band that created the critically acclaimed album "Lonerism" which sounds a little like this album. (Favorite song on this album is "Feel Like We Only Go Backwards")
