Master release
On this day, engineers Glyn Johns and Alan Parsons (and possibly George Martin) created stereo mixes of five of the songs recorded during The Beatles’ rooftop concert on January 30, 1969. Those were put on a compilation tape.
Only the mix of “The One After 909” was selected by Glyn John for the unreleased “Get Back” album. The other mixes were never used.
About Glyn Johns’ “Get Back” compilations
A few months after the end of the “Get Back” sessions, engineer/producer Glyn Johns was given the task of compiling an actual album. Glyn made four different variants of the album, two of them having been considered for release at some point.
