Background
Anthology Volume 2 is pretty much a
mirror image of Volume 1 in that it has
the other brand new Beatles song Real
Love. Real Love was a demo John Lennon
had done in the late '70's, and in 1995
the tape was given to Paul,
George, and Ringo by Yoko Ono to be made into a
finished song. Real Love, like it's
predecessor Free
As A Bird, suffers from poor sound quality of the
demo tape. This was a big job
for Jeff Lynne and the other Beatles to
work through, but they seemed to have
pulled it off as good as can be
expected.
Anthology Volume 2 boasts more of the same
unreleased music and alternate
takes than Volume 1, with Volume 2
dealing with the years 1965-1968. Songs
like If You've Got Trouble, which was
slated for the Help! album as Ringo's
only song; 12 Bar Original, an
instrumental recorded during the
sessions for Rubber Soul, and That Means A Lot
which
was also slated for the
Help! album but wasn't used. Also on
Anthology Volume 2 are different takes
of various songs from that period such
as Strawberry Fields Forever and I'm
Only Sleeping, as well as live appearances.
