Glasses (Oobu Joobu version)

Written by Paul McCartneyUnreleased song


Inspired by Mozart’s ‘Glass Menagerie Music For Glass Harmonica‘, this bit was recorded “at the end of a rehearsal session.” In a new attempt at using a technique first heard on the McCartney LP, Linda plays wine glasses as Paul plays piano, trying to determine the key. The version appearing on Appaloosa Love originates from Program 95-29/4, where it segues into a performance of the Mozart piece.
