The Beatles Lost EP
by Alan Ewing
Side A: Only A Northern Song/Hey Bulldog/Across The Universe
Side B: All Together Now/It's All Too Much
These songs did appear on Beatles LPs. There were grumblings about the "Yellow Submarine" soundtrack containing two previously released songs, and then Sir George Martin's Orchestral soundtrack on Side two of that LP. In response to this an EP was mastered, with the addition of the orginal 'Acoss The Universe (complete with Apple Scruffs girls doing backing vocals, whom Paul McCartney recruited from outside the door) which was recorded for the 'World Wildlife Fund' album. The EP was mastered for a 33 and a third cutting on a 45rpm disc. It was never issued. The songs were recorded directly after the Sgt Pepper/Magical Mystery Tour sessions in 1967, though never came to LP versions until 1969/70.
