This song was recorded over late Dec. 1966 and up to Jan. 17, 1967. The version of Penny Lane on The Beatles Anthology 1 CD set is a hybrid of the oboe version with the Bach trumpet version. This mix (RM8) is the oboe-only version. It also appears on the bootleg CD set Turn Me On Dead Man on disc 2 track 3. Estimated release date is known to be in 1999 and assumed to be after the release of the Yellow Submarine Songtrack CD release. A version that includes the announcement of 'RM8' is included on the bootleg CD-R set Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Deluxe Edition Volume Two - Sessions, Disc 1, track 21. |
