The Beatles Throwaways are the second best band ever after the Beatles.
So true!
Ha ha ! So true !
Why is that, for 60 years now, every time I hear a "new" Beatles song, it is the greatest thing I've ever heard?
🎯🎯🎯
5 seconds in is a riff from Harper Valley P.T.A. !!
I've been a Beatles fan for 45 years and never heard this song until now. I can't stop listening to it.
me either
Me too. Weird hey?
It’s not a Beatles single, it’s a demo. They gave this song to Jackie Lomax who released it on Apple Records
@@aircap That would explain the "unfinished" sound of the track.
Just when you think you've Heard all their stuff
Right, let me explain. This is george's acoustic demo (voice) mixed into the music from Jackie's version, very cleverly done. The music did have Paul and Ringo on it, so if you listen to Jackie's released version, you will hear the same music and if you listen to the Esher sessions, you will hear George's vocal. :)
nice one charlie.
Also George Harrison plays the guitar solo @2:10 which also repeats towards the end of the song.
@@normaharrison6143 that was clapton
@@peanutswilbury1017 Eric was playing lead guitar through out the song. George took the guitar solo @2:10 and then George's solo repeats towards the end @3:16. Their guitar styles are very distinctive, it should be obvious when George kicks in @2:10. Listen to it. Think 'White Album' era of George's guitar style. Give it another listen.
@Freddy Records No, John Lennon didn't participate in the Jackie Lomax recordings. In fact John Lennon was absent in a lot of George Harrison songs as well. Look up Harrison's Beatle songs, you'll see. Sometimes all John did was back-up vocals, if that.
Another masterpiece from George!
Personally, I feel that most of George's songs were the best! RIP George & John. Rest in Paradise. Jaya Sri Krishna 🙏🏼 🌈 🕉
Oh how I wish George had completed this song. 'Sour Milk Sea' belongs on the White Album as much as John's 'Don't Let Me Down' belongs on Let it Be.
it was completed -- George gave it to Jackie Lomax who recorded it for Apple Records w/ Eric Clapton on guitar
Should have been a single
Instead of "Revolution 9"
Vadim Ast Projects There ya go! #9 was too long also. I love this song,George was my hero
@@derrickcrane4290 Yes, I should have used the word "released" rather than "completed". What I meant was it should have been recorded and released as a Beatles song.
"Sour Milk Sea" is a song by English rock singer Jackie Lomax that was released as his debut single on the Beatles' Apple record label in August 1968. It was written by George Harrison during the Beatles' stay in Rishikesh, India, and given to Lomax to help launch Apple Records. The recording is a rarity among non-Beatles songs since it features three members of the band - Harrison, who also produced the track, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney. Performed in the hard rock style, the song also includes musical contributions from Eric Clapton and session pianist Nicky Hopkins, and was the first of many Harrison productions for artists signed to the Beatles' record label.
....and Jackie Lomax never really got the recognition his talent deserved.
Very comprehensive. Thank you.
Thanks for the detailed info. As I listened, I found it sounded less Beatle-y, and wondered where that piano and guitar phrasing fit in. Now it all makes sense. Sounds a lot like a post-Beatles Harrison tune, imo.
Bad finger notably
It's BY George Harrison, produced by Lomax
What fascinates me about the Beatles is how every song is a masterpiece.Its like they’re sprinkled with magic dust or something.Every one of their songs is better than most bands entire back catalogue put together.
The more you do something, the better you get at it.
Woof Dog - I agree ! What you say is almost true.
Most of their songs are iconic melodies. Truly gifted musicians and songwriters !
And personalities as well.
nah
I think this song was by Jackie Lomax. The A Side was The eagle Laughs at You .What evler became of him?
It becomes Gold!!!
Wonderful. This should have been on a Beatles album for sure. Combining the hard rock of "Savoy Truffle" and the also-rejected "Not Guilty" with the blues of "Old Brown Shoe," it really shows the fine talent George had that his bandmates underrecognized throughout their entire career together. Thanks for bringing it back!
agree he was underrecognised - he has always been my favourite Beatle, since age 5 - the soulful one
It is on a Beatles album. It was released on the 50th anniversary issue of "The Beatles" (The White Album) on the 3rd disc.
@@andyallan2909 Great!
yes, it reminds me of old brown shoe. George harmonies shine like a rare crystal.
@@andyallan2909 Right, in with the Esher versions of The Beatles White Album era songs (It also includes George's "Not Guilty" and "Circles", --later released on his Gone Troppo, Paul's "Junk" - which turned up on Paul's 1st solo album, and John's "Child of Nature", later released on his "Imagine" album as "Jealous Guy").
"I wrote ‘Sour Milk Sea’ in Rishikesh, India. I never actually recorded the song - it was done by Jackie Lomax on his album Is This What You Want? Anyway, it’s based on Vishvasara Tantra, from Tantric art. ‘What is here is elsewhere, what is not here is nowhere’. It’s a picture, and the picture is called ‘Sour Milk Sea’ - Kalladadi Samudra in Sanskrit. I used Sour Milk Sea as the idea of - if you’re in the shit, don’t go around moaning about it: do something about it
George Harrison
RESPECT !
Thanks for clarifying that, I remember the Lomax version.
There's something about George's voice that is really "Something."
I saw what you did there, nice one Fella
its kinda "long long", but "within you and without you"
I can hear the development of George's songwriting style here. It doesn't really sound like The Beatles, it sounds like Harrison.
Sounds like Badfinger.
WMGGW dosnt sound like a Beatles tune either.
He often played with the Beatles...they occasionally went on tangents.
The guitar licks sound like Cream of that era
It's more All Things Must Pass. I wish they would do a new remix & ditching the awful Spector Wall of Sound & more Abbey Road. Will write to Dhani about it.
Sour Milk Sea is an absolute "must include" on the 2018 White Album de lux box set, expected to be released in November
Your prayers have been listened, brother
Yes! I'm glad the demo is on the upcoming White Album 50th set. I just wish they would include a more professional mashup of the Beatle's demo and Jackie Lomax's backing track (which includes George, Paul, and Ringo). But if that never happens, I'm at least glad that fans make decent mashups like this one! I tried doing it one time, but I didn't have the patience to match the timing of the demo to the timing of the Lomax backing track :)
robert britton Not Guilty should definitely be involved this time.
One of the finest by George with the Beatles
Great backing track from George, Paul and Ringo. If I was George I would have told Jakie Lomax to clear off... This would have made a cracking little debut single for Beatle George in 1968.
It isn't ...not sure why .
I just discovered this and “Palace of the King of the Birds” in the last few minutes! Wow. Speechless:)
I can't help hearing Savoy Truffle in this song..
Most certainly. In my head, I can hear Sour Milk Sea segue into Savoy Truffle.
Similar vibe
except this is better all the way around.
percussion it's all too much-ish
well said bro
If your life's not right, doesn't satisfy you
Don't get the breaks like some of us do
Better work it out; find where you've gone wrong
Better do it soon as you don't have long
Get out of sour milk sea
You don't belong there
Get back to where you should be
Find out what's going on there
If you want the most from everything you do
In the shortest time your dreams come true
In no time at all it makes you more aware
Very simple process takes you there
Get out of sour milk sea
You don't belong there
Get back to where you should be
Find out what's going on there
Looking for release from limitation?
There's nothing much without illumination
Can fool-around with every different cult
There's only one way brings result
Get out of sour milk sea
You don't belong there
Get back to where you should be
Find out what's going on there.
Thanks for the lyrics Fella, time is rolling by for me nowadays and I had trouble trying to make out the words in the vocals
ちょっとオールドブラウンシュー風な雰囲気のある曲ですね😲
初めて聴きました💪
Clocking 58 years as a Beatles fan, never got it up to today.
Agree, should be part of the White Album - their best imo
The White Album is their best 🍏
I wonder if it's non-release had more to do with the fact that George wrote it. This is a wonderful piece, I'm very impressed.
This was George venting his frustration at being in the Beatles at that late stage. He found it limiting and frustrating and he was especially fed up with the overbearing Paul. That's why this song didn't make it on to the White album.
This song is so freakin amazing!!!!
You're still in my heart, George.
This is my introduction to this1st rate George Harrison tune. Thanks a million👍✌
TURN GORGE'S MIC UP!!!
I like it because it shows the music in the background which is amazing for this track
Demo never used ...Guide Vocal .
"JOHN'S MIC'S SHIT!"
ぇんおんだもん ‘you say you want a revolution’
The amount of Beatles unreleased songs is enough to make 3 albums, God imagine if they reunited or Brian Epstein never died so they kept performing through the 70s...
I would have liked to have seen them last till 1974 and have "My Sweet Lord," "Live and Let Die" and "Imagine" be Beatles hits.
I personally like that they ended up (not on purpose) taking the Seinfeld route and finish on a high, rather than dragging it out till the 80s like the Stones.
I like how it all happened (the breakup in 1970 and all the arguments) that is what makes them what they were. But I agree with you: Imagine "Instant Karma", "Imagine", "My sweet lord", all the Wings songs were published as Beatles songs.
More than 3
if brian hadnt died, they wouldnt have broken up...he wouldve talked them into doing what the stones ended up doing
he also wouldve kicked yoko's ass
Brian knew they werent going out on tour again and maybe led to the O.D.
Musically, this is very good, regardless of whether the Beatles were actually playing on it or not. The only complaint I have is that George's vocals are too muted and we have a hard time making out what he's singing.
It' s a rough mix or isn' t it?
But I agree we need the vocals mixed up more " straight in the face".
But that wasn' t usual in the 60' s.
@@terrycuster4213 this sounds like a mash up between Jackie Lomax’s backing track with George’s vocals added.
Thats just how they used to mix rock. The vocals sitting back in the mix and pushed up a skoach on the chorus.
They were playing on it. Only Eric Clapton and Billy Preston ever played with the Beatles on their recordings. No doubt about it.
@@brucewalters8635 I played one of Billy Preston's B3's on a record. Actually it was a studio that has the piano used on Nat King Cole's most iconic record. It has one of Frank Sinatra's U-47s. Ive worked at this particular studio many times but this was the first time that so many historical instruments were used on one record. It was a sacred experience in a way.
I really enjoy both Eric and George's solos!
Can really hear the 90s in this. Man, the Beatles were so far ahead of their time.
Agreed! Sounds like Blur
Bullshit!, the 90s did a lot of copy paste. :-)
@@harryhaller9386 right-90s suked
@@soxwina, oh, sure, all the music now is SO great, right? All quantized and autotuned to "perfection"...
except they were about three decades behind performance concert music, but hey... who cares?
As a Beatles fan,I am shocked that I never heard this terrific song before.This is definitely White Album material. George Martin could have done wonders with this mix.Very surprised why they would bypass a great song like this.Great song by George and the Beatles !
George Martin Blah Blah Blah.
The Beatles couldn't play their new music after him.
@@rickb4806 Of course they could,he just completed them.
@@apexjoe4769 Would hate to hear what he would say to Jimi Hendrix.
"um Jimi, could you please stop it with that fuzzy stuff and the feedback. How about a violin section?"
@@rickb4806 He never told the Beatles how or what to play, but suggested different sound alternatives to the finished product.If the Beatles didn't like his suggestions do you really think they would listen to him & do it his way.I don't think so.
@@apexjoe4769 And you were there?
I think that this version of Sour Milk Sea should be re-done to be a fully authorized release by the remaining Beatles. Harrison is the author of this piece. The Beatles are playing it and it's George Harrison's voice on it. It's the next step . Especially if they re-mix it to their liking to where it meets their standards for a proper release, it will be another Beatles song and not a Jackie Lomax re-hash. If what they did for John Lennon's "Now and Then" is done for Sour Milk Sea, then that process song can be done for George's song as well with the Esher vocals It really is the next step with this song.
totally agree and also not guilty.
The expression on the face of the cat sitting between Ringo and George always makes me laugh!😆
I can't unsee it now.
Unmistakable Ringo on drums.
You have Jackie Lomax as the artists. This is George Harrison singing. This is what Jackie used to learn song. George and Eric on Guitars, Paul McCartney on bass, Ringo on Drums, Nicky Hopkins on piano and George on vocals. Recorded at Abbey Road and Trident Studios. Here's Jackie's version. th-cam.com/video/J83611apwIU/w-d-xo.html
かっこよすぎる！
ポールジョンが、音かぶせまくってますね。最高！駆け抜ける感じ。
ジョージいいね！
George was always my favorite. He was so unique...
There's infinitely more melody and texture in a Beatles outtake than ANYTHING that's popular now.
So true...we have the radio playing all contemporary songs where I work...they're all so bland, repetitive, simplistic, uninspired/uninspiring and...well... just lazy efforts, quite frankly...
@@bettyswunghole3310 Just "muzak"!
Paul and Ringo KILLING it, drove this song omg. 😳 So much fun to listen to, ty!
Paul and Ringo are not on this song. This is a Jackie Lomax recording with George's original vocal demo that somebody mashed together.
@@magneto7930 who played drums and bass then? Multiple sources confirmed they did (even one just below this post)?
@@false_binary you are correct, my mistake, I don't know what I was thinking about. Paul and Ringo definitely did play on the song and I think maybe Clapton. My apologies.
@@magneto7930 Yes & Nicky Hopkins KILLING it on the keys. Quite the "Fab 3" production!
@@false_binary yes indeed, and kudos to the person who made this into a virtual Beatles song!
This is the quality of song they leave off their album!!! Incredible.
George Harrison solo cut...however, your point is taken
Most of the voice heard is George's! Love it! First time I heard this song - beautiful!
i wish they'd finished it. i can't understand a word George is singing
Early REM
@@jonathanmacpac 🤣
This is a demo version of the song from George's studio in preparation of the White Album. It didn't make the album so was later given to Jackie Lomax who was the first person signed to Apple.
James Taylor, é que foi o primeiro artista à assinar com a Apple Records!
Some of the people here griping about George's playing might well be talking about Eric Clapton, since this is Jackie Lomax's backing track.
!
Take that, ye gripers!
I have been a Beatles fan for 45 years I am now 49 this is the first time I have ever heard this Jackie Lomax brought me here
oh georgey why, why! too much love makes one give, but you knew this song was a powerful peice and you still kept it out of the catalogue. I like the way it makes me feel to hear it. My brain receptors for sound are happy.
The Beatles were songwriters,, ,,,,, the stones followed in THEIR footsteps. Only One Original !!!!!!!!!!
As this is a George Harrison solo cut, The Beatles can't get the credit for this one...though Paul & Ringo played, as well as Clapton, Nicky Hopkins on keys, and Lomax (backup vocals & production)
This is just a great as finding an unknown unreleased Stevie Ray Vaughn track. Love it.
RIP JOHN & GEORGE & SRV
on youtube search for "Herman Brood sour milk sea live" - absolutely brilliant - HB was a Dutch Enfant Terrible who was pretty cool!
Great drumming! Go, Ringo, Go! You´re the greatest!
One day this song grew up to be Savoy Truffle.
A keen observation.
Thats true
Kinda wish this was on the White Album instead.
@@mrblue99999 Last night I played them at the same time by opening two YT windows -- it's crazy how they make this kind of interchangeable psychedelia.
No it didn't two totally different songs George guitar plating at the time was garbage but still he could have asked Eric to do a solo on this one too and put it on the White Album
It IS the Lomax backing track added to George's vocal demo.
agreed. enjoyable but an outfake mix
Same players (Nicky Hopkins on piano, Ringo, Paul on bass, Eric Clapton & George on guitars), different take. This intro is a tad longer, some of Ringo’s fills are a little different towards the end and though a lot of Nicky’s playing is similar on both takes (he was always pure genius), his playing on Lomax’s track was a bit tighter. George produced Jackie’s track.
Interesting! Really interesting.
Eventually recorded on Apple by Jackie Lomax backup by Ringo, Paul and George who also wrote and produced this great song..... If not mistaken even Billy Preston is also on that historic recording....
George brings the house down on this! This is so awesome! Jackie Lomax does a great version too. I can tell the background is very similar on both. Jackie's singing one; George the other. Both excellent! R.I.P. George & Jackie
Shame George didn't record a better version of this with harmonies to strengthen the vocals. It is a really good song and would have improved the white album.
White Album doesn't need to be improved. It's a mastepiece !
@@laurentburcet30160 agreed but I reckon this would have been a good addition just the same
@@laurentburcet30160 get rid of revolution #9 and have room for George's Sour milk sea and Not Guilty!
I can't get enough of this song! If George had put this on the White Album, it would have been the best song on there
This one instead of Piggies
@@josepmariaromeu2005or long long long. I thought this and piggies were rubbish..
I grew up listening to my oldest brother play his Beatles records, the other two brothers one was very much into playing classical Spanish guitar and the other classics. The youngest still 7 years older than myself like The rolling Stones, Cream, Deep Purple and Pink floyd. As I was closest to my oldest brother (I was the only girl in our family) I followed all his Beatles songs. This one I've never heard.
It's so weird to hear a new Beatles song, but so cool...though I knew all 200 of them
This has long been just another song they gave away with the exception of it being a George song. Jackie Lomax hit with it...
Imagine a band being so good that this song became a throwaway.❤
Almost anything done by The Beatles or written by one of the Beatles has some sort of specialness to it. The Jackie Lomax version of this is good too.
This fan-mix needs an official release
@SEBASTIAN MORALES ARCILA this is not the esher demo version
This is the backing track from a released version by Jackie Lomax and George's guide vocal added to it. It has been released. George, Ringo, Paul, Eric Clapton, and Nicky Hopkins all played on the Jackie Lomax track. Not a Beatles track, but close..
The melodic line is beautiful
*the superior version*
This is the single by Jackie Lomax (with Harrison, McCartney, Starr, Eric Clapton, and Nicky Hopkins as his backup band), with his vocals taken out and the original George Harrison demo spliced in. Not a bad effort, but the two don't fit very well.
I think it rocks
George wrote it.
@@scottcreedon7405 -- Correct, which is why he did a demo of it.
How good band must be to don't need to include such a great song with incredibly deep lyrics on their LP. I love the lyrics most.
Absolute magic, like everything that was composed and performed by the greatest Beatles , but it is very painful to listen to because it will never happen again......
At least it happened.
SMS was written by Harrison together with English guitarist-composer Jackie Lomax. The catchy song featured three Beatles, no John Lennon. It wasn't considered a Beatle's song but it's downright George Harrison. Would be great if Spector produced it.
I can't believe they never released this. It's better than some other songs released that year.
It was a George Harrison solo cut
How is it, being a Beatles freak all my life, that I’ve never heard of this song let alone being able to listen to it??
It reminds me of "Savoy Truffle" (another one of George's) and I can understand why they didn't put this AND "Savoy Truffle" on the same album.
We're Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band,we hope you have enjoyed the show...
Another great song that Paul and John put on the Georgie Backburner
Reminds me a bit of the Stones Jigsaw puzzle. Love this. So many melodies happening simultaneously
The more I hear this. The more I love this track
💯 💶
im surprised badfinger didnt record it
That would have been fantastic!
That's early glam rock.
To the point !
Why is it glam? It has Chuck Berry all over it !!!!
aheendwhz1 could have been T Rex
The FabFour developing Heavy Metal and Glitter Rock!
@@meyou-dv8ns so does a lot of 70s glam
I totally thought this was going to be another Apple Bottom Jeans post. I'm happily surprised.
Omg same!
Can't make out the lyrics but love the tune. This track really moves, and I do believe that's Nicky on piano!
Excelente la interpretación vocal de harrison .My most missed beatle
One of the best songs by George.
Not sure about "best," but it's a rocker for sure
On the last Cream album, Eric Clapton sang Badge he co-wrote with George Harrison. In the same vein, on the following Blind Faith album, Steve Winwood could have sung Sour Milk Sea, using his trademark stretched rythm and blues higher range, akin to Jackie Lomax's, who did a capable version of it. That might have been the best song on the album alongside Presence Of The Lord.
Never heard this song before its great!!!
About the time you think you have heard every Beatles song, another one pops up. Never heard this song until now.
I've decided you will never hear every Beatles song.
What a great song.
Harrison produced the song, with Paul McCartney on bass, Ringo Starr on drums, Eric Clapton on guitar, and Nicky Hopkins on piano.
This is a great song...too bad I didn't hear it on the radio when I was 20 learning guitar.
This was a song that George Harrison produced for Jackie Lomax. Not entirely a Beatles' song. I wonder how many of them are actually on this recording. Nevertheless, it's a pleasure to hear and would have worked well on the "White Album."
Just heard this 1st time. Great song...
I sure wish I could make out the words. This song is great.
Excellent song and excellent Rousseauesque album cover!!
Henri Rousseau, thinking exact same thing!
With available new technology this construction could be done with a louder vocal ala now and then. In my opinion this is maybe the best track I've ever heard that doesn't exist.
it sounds like "savoy truffle" but a little bit better.
How did this slip past the radar? One of the best Beatles songs you never heard or heard of.
It's amazing how clueless Beatles fanatics are. Song is garbage.
Playing this great George song with the band ....love it
This song would've fit Right into the 1990's alt-rock era, had it not been made in 1968. Not sure what Other Known Band could've made this song though. Beatles were just simply Magical. No other specific type of description is necessary.
Jesus that cover art is so cool and creepy at the same time
John Patrick Byrne, pretty cool, never saw this . . . but recognized his style from Stealers Wheel & Gerry Rafferty, def a bit of Henri Rousseau in this one . . .
Odd that Harrison has the knife considering he was stabbed by a loony.
This was possible cover art for “the white album” when it was still tentatively going to be called “a dolls house”. This particular was released by Jackie Lomax I believe. It sounds cool and I would have liked to see it included over some other tracks. But even more I wish they had included “Not Guilty”. That could have been a great one.
@@lancehouck The rest of the band probably saw Yoko's face and decided to pass.
@@lancehouck Isn't this what they used for the 'Beatles Ballads' compilation?
This a great and underrated song, Isnt a pity?
Woah! A Beatles song I've never heard of or known of. Thanks for this
I’m COMFORTABLE with the energy we created in the studio
One of EC's apple sessions, nice fills and first solo.
Fascinating. Brand new to me. A Harrison song for sure. I hear SAVOY TRUFFLE and OLD BROWN SHOE.
Thanks for the thumbs up. Never know how some people are going to react. Friend of mine is an ENORMOUS Beatle fan----far more than myself---but I'm not sure he knows of this song.
This sounds like they were settled in the studio, yet you can dance to this tune. It's like it's a psychedelic rock n' roll tune. Genius!
David Skidmore gave this info :
This is the backing track played by George - Ringo - Paul - Eric Clapton and Nicky Hopkins
with the guide vocal by George - that was given to singer Jackie Lomax.
He added his vocal to this backing track and released it - of course without George vocal.
This is probably why George's voice is so low on this take. It was never meant to be heard.
Wikipedia has this : that it was made by George during their stay in India learning transendetal meditation
and that George wanted to promote meditation with this song.
It was meant as a possible song for the "White Album."
