Unsurpassed Masters, Volume 7专辑介绍
Beatles最为人所知的一套bootlegs.
Unsurpassed Masters is the most recognized series of Beatles bootlegs ever.
This is the seventh volume of the 7.
This is another compilation, as is Vol. 6 of tracks from the Beatles entire career from 1962-1970.
And this is the last of the "Unsurpassed Masters" series of studio outtakes. All future Yellow Dog issues would contain material from other sources, mainly TV / Radio broadcasts, concerts and "Get Back" sessions.
Track 17 is the first appearance of what came to be known as the "Beatle Speech" from the vocal overdub session for "Think For Yourself" on November 8, 1965. George Martin recorded them in case they said anything funny that could be used in the 1965 Christmas record. None of it was used.
All tracks stereo except 1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 14 and 17.
Track 9 is the right channel of the stereo image on both sides.

Paul's demo, the same as the Sessions version. Recorded July 24, 1969.
17. 'Beatle Speech'
Although the track listing has this as "Think For Yourself", many experts agree the title is "Beatle Speech", as it is marked that way on the tape box which Mark Lewisohn used.
A few tracks are a little too slow, but most in excellent quality.
