Shake, Rattle and Roll Notes Disc 7 This disc shows what The Beatles did in between takes and during equipment changeovers to enjoy themselves - namely playing songs of Lonnie Donnegan and Chuck Berry. We also finally get to hear the complete version of John and Paul harmonizing on the Everly Brothers classic "Bye Bye Love" (up to now we only had a tantalizing two second clip!), as well as the beginning of a very comprehensive look at the recording og George's "For You Blue". And what could be more fun than John singing a version of the very first song Paul ever wrote (track 21). Disc 8 Multiple takes of "Let It Be", all never heard before, are the focal point of Disc 8. An even longer tape that anyone even knew existed of "Dig It" is here as well, clocking in at over 15 minutes! George plays nice acoustic versions of "Isn't It A Pity" and "Window, Window" and for the very first time "Rip It Up" can be heard in its complete form.
