About

On this day, Apple employee Malcolm Davies created new stereo mixes of George Harrison’s “For You Blue“.

The intent of this session is not clear. Glyn Johns’ latest attempt to create the “Get Back” LP was rejected by The Beatles, and those mixes were not used to improve that album. They were not used for the “Let It Be” album neither, and would finally remain unreleased.

If we like to think, in all modesty, that the Paul McCartney Project is the best online ressource for everything Paul McCartney, The Beatles Bible is for sure the definitive online site focused on the Beatles. There are obviously some overlap in terms of content between the two sites, but also some major differences in terms of approach.
