While the Beatles‘ first Anthology, released 20 years ago this month, isn’t exactly canonical Fab Four, it’s worth remembering how momentous the compilation seemed at the time. Perhaps you were among those whose minds were blown in anticipation of new Beatle baubles, demos, outtakes and live cuts that went beyond what even the most rapacious bootleg collector would have been able to gather up.
Would it feel as if one were present at Abbey Road, beholding an impassioned conversation before the next masterpiece was commenced? Would there be takes to challenge the known, canonical ones for “best ever” versions? Would one discover a fresh McCartney vocal to claim as a favorite going forward, some new delight that would repay hundreds of listenings, just as the old Beatles records always had? Upon its November, 1995, release, Anthology 1 was a huge seller, as if there was any way it could not be. Posthumous round-ups of rarities were normally geared toward the obsessives, but as we’re talking Beatles, Fab Four diehards form their own kind of widespread subculture, and thus a listening majority.
And it’s not hard to imagine fans agog over performances like a live cut of “This Boy” from The Morecambe & Wise Show, which torches the official B-side, thanks to a Lennon vocal on the middle eight that explodes with the same intensity of “Money” and “Twist and Shout,” only with more finesse, and perhaps more heart.
The idea that Beatles masterworks — or eventual masterworks, to be technical about it — could morph so drastically as to go from quirky Buck Owens pastiche to scream-your-balls-off rock & roll adrenaline-fest is, of course, part of the purpose of the Anthology, but the series, and its first component in particular, poses the neat challenge of determining just where a performance like this fits in with everything else. Beatles albums tend to be ridiculously of a piece, even for the variety each may contain. They work as wholes in oft-impeccable ways, a Beatlesesque knack that even extends to the best Beatles bootlegs and various post-career sets like the BBC albums.
There’s a prevailing spirit to Anthology 1, which is tantamount to “We are coming for you, world.” This is the sound of youth, the sound of confidence where maybe others think that that self-belief is a tad — or a ton — over-estimated, and then the sound of full-on delivering the goods.
The music and sounds are excellent. This cd is a must for beatles fans.
This one has it's moments good & bad. I hate the fact that they try to pass off You're Gonna Lose That Girl, as an outtake, when even the most novice of Beatle Fans/collectors would know it was lifted right from the frickin Help! video. Memo to booters, cut the shit OTAY. 12 Bar Original is very nice, as is Not Guilty. Instead of the phoney stuff, they should of opted for the 8 minute It's All Too Much or something interesting like it.
Anthology review
"Once upon a time there were three little boys called John, George and Paul ...". Thus began an article by John Lennon published on the first page of the first issue of the fortnightly "Mersey Beat" (6-20 July 1961). The "Mersey Beat" - as is well told in "The beginning of the Beatles", Omnibus Press, 1977 - was a newspaper entirely dedicated to the Liverpool music scene: founded by Bill Harry, it had a not very long life (about ninety numbers , just under four years old) but had both John Lennon and Paul McCartney as regular collaborators. From the first issue, in fact: that hosted "Being a short diversion on the dubious origins of Beatles", a reconstruction of the early career of the band written by John, in his peculiar style made of word games and paradoxes.
In the second paragraph of that article, we find the phrase - which we quote verbatim - "Many people ask what are Beatles? Why Beatles? Ugh, Beatles, how did the name arrive? So we will tell you. It came in a vision - a man appeared on a flaming pie and said unto them 'From this day on you are Beatles with an A'. Thank you, Mister Man, they said, thanking him ".
Many Italian translators have provided the same version of this phrase, stopping at the first literal meaning of "pie" and writing: "A man appeared on a flaming cake and said to them: 'From this moment on you are Beatles, with an A' . " Formally correct version, but incorrect: "pie", in fact, also means "pie, pie", especially meat (a sort of meatloaf, so to speak). And this interpretation was corroborated in 1997 by the release of the Paul McCartney album which is entitled "Flaming pie": on the cover, in addition to a photograph by Paul, in fact appears the drawing of a meat pie placed on a plate and surmounted by three flames (as if it were flambé). The purists, at this point, had satisfaction (even though most Italian journalists stubbornly claimed that the title of the disc meant "flaming cake": but that's another matter). So what does "The Beatles Anthology" have to do with all this? Apologizing for the long but indispensable prolusion, let's get to the point. The Italian version of "The Beatles Anthology", now available in all bookstores, provides a new and surprising interpretation of "flaming pie". On page 41 and page 62, in fact, "flaming pie" is boldly translated with the unprecedented (and surprising) expression "ardent pussy".
We asked ourselves how it is possible that the seven translators of the volume (plus the proofreader of the translation, plus the editorial coordinator, plus the editor) have come to this truly revolutionary interpretation. They evidently do not know, or have not taken into account, the cover of McCartney's album. To want to be generous, we can think that they caught a (nonexistent) analogy with "finger pie": expression used in the text of "Penny Lane" which (as Donatella Franzoni and Antonio Taormina correctly explain in "Beatles - All texts 1962 / 1970 ", Arcana Editrice, 1992) is" in slang, already dated, an obscene term referring to the female sex "(what we could vulgarly translate" fingering ").
But in a newspaper like the "Mersey Beat", in the year 1961, an explicitly vulgar two-way expression could never have appeared. Nor can we see how Lennon - who was not lacking in imagination and inclination to obscenity - could fantasize about "a man on a burning pussy", writing moreover in a periodical intended for the public of the boys from Liverpool (and the good Bill Harry he would never let it pass on the first page of the first issue of his new newspaper).
This, at least, is our opinion of Beatlesian philologists and (modest) translators from English. We would like our report to be received and, if necessary, contested - cards in hand - by the ten girls who edited the Italian edition of "The Beatles Anthology" for Rizzoli. And we await the opinions of readers and colleagues.
