The Beatles Yellow Submarine Album - What if there was a proper 'Side 2'?
As the years went on and the anthologies came out, I realized that there was a lot of material that they could
have pulled out and dusted off to make a really EXCELLENT album proper. Also of these tunes I feel would
have suited the 'Yellow Submarine' movie if they were thought of at the time. All of the songs below were
actually available at the time that the track-listing was been put together, in fact George Martins Side B recording took
place with a 41-piece orchestra over two three-hour sessions on 22 and 23 October 1968...
Anyways I have this as 'what could have been' playlist ....
SIDE A
1. Yellow Submarine
2. Only A Northern Song
3. All Together Now
4. Hey Bulldog
5. It's All Too Much
6. Yellow Submarine
SIDE B
1. Nowhere Man (due to it's important appearance in the movie)
2. That Means A Lot (Beautiful Beatles harmonies. It would fit IMO)
3. If You've Got Troubles (Ringo appearance. A fun song could have been used in the movie)
4. Leave My Kitten Alone (this one would have worked great, has also 'bulldog' in the lyrics, again
I could easily imagine this one fitting seamlessly into the movie)
5. Not Guilty (A nice trippy way to finish the album! Loads of room for animation on this)
in my opinion should have been considered. I think these tracks deserved more than been buried on the Anthology albums and should
have seen official release at that time. For the Beatles the tracks were probably sub par but they are still better standard than most of
their comtempories of the time. Yellow Submarine would have been a home for them....Just my 2 cents.
My point is they could have fitted if they wanted them to

The Beatles 64-65 tracks 'That Means A Lot' , 'If You've Got Trouble' and 'Leave My Kitten Alone' plus 'Not Guilty' from 68 could andin my opinion should have been considered. I think these tracks deserved more than been buried on the Anthology albums and should

Could 'Whats The New Mary Jane' been an option??Fleet Fox said:
you could argue that the tracks that ended up on Side One (apart from YS and AYNIL) were also rejects! My point is they could have fitted if they wanted them to
