Anthology Orphans?

I'm writing an article on songs that should have been included on the
Beatles Anthology CDs.

My brief initial thoughts:

* Short fascinating audio snippet that surfaced in recent years of John
singing from that night in July 1957 at St Peters Church Hall (when he met
Paul).

* What You're Doing (take 11) is awesome and should have been on Anthology.

What's the big difference between this and the released version?

* Goodbye (Paul's demo)

Any other tracks you reckon should have been on Anthology?

Mel Torment...

No question in my mind - the "Carnival of Light Rave" tape.

Good selection. Here are others:

The half hour "Helter Skelter" that's hyped in Lewisohn's book but
unheard.

A better outtake of "And Your Bird Can Sing" (again described in
Lewisohn).

"Watching Rainbows" -- Heard live on French radio and the title cut of
a popular old vinyl bootleg. Lousy quality, but terrific Lennon tune
with a great meandering Harrison solo.

"Mean Mr. Mustand"/"Madman" -- from same radio broadcast; the Abbey
Road favorite with an unreleased song appended to it. Again, heard on
"Watching Rainbows" boot.

The remainder of the Decca audition tape. Only five were included on
"Anthology." I think there are 14 in all.

The demos for songs they gave to others: "I'm in Love," "Hello Little
Girl": and "One and One is Two." I found these on MP3 and they're not
bad.

I also have a demo of supposedly just John Lennon doing "If I Fell" on
acoustic guitar. I have no idea of this is real or if it dates from
later.

Goodbye (Paul's demo) was on the
Anthology, unless your speaking about a guitar/voice demo? Who would
want to hear that? It was bad enough hearing Paul sing like a woman.

Come and Get It was on A3, I think and Goodbye wasn't...

Strange, cause I recall Goodbye being on there. Maybe I heard it on a
boot? The quality was very good.
