About
On this day, Paul McCartney worked in EMI Studio Two, while Ringo Starr and George Martin were in Studio One to continue the work on Ringo’s debut album, “Sentimental Journey“.
From 10 am to 1 pm, Paul and engineer Phil McDonald mixed “Hot As Sun“, recorded at Morgan Studios earlier in the month. They also made a copy of the best mix of “Maybe I’m Amazed“, made two days earlier, on February 22.
From 3:30 pm to 6:15 pm, they remixed “Every Night“, recorded the day before.
On this day, Paul, assisted by engineer John Kurlander, also mixed “Don’t Cry Baby“, a brief track where we hear Paul singing a lullaby to his daughter. The track was mixed into the beginning of “Oo You” and was only released in 2011, on the “McCartney – Archive Collection“.

Eight Arms to Hold You: The Solo Beatles Compendium
We owe a lot to Chip Madinger and Mark Easter for the creation of those session pages, but you really have to buy this book to get all the details!
Eight Arms To Hold You: The Solo Beatles Compendium is the ultimate look at the careers of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr beyond the Beatles. Every aspect of their professional careers as solo artists is explored, from recording sessions, record releases and tours, to television, film and music videos, including everything in between. From their early film soundtrack work to the officially released retrospectives, all solo efforts by the four men are exhaustively examined.
As the paperback version is out of print, you can buy a PDF version on the authors' website
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.
