The Beatles - Sour Milk Sea

The Beatles rehearsing a George Harrison song. Sour Milk Sea is a song written by George Harrison that surfaced during the sessions for 'The Beatles' (also known as 'The White Album'). The song was recorded professionally by Jackie Lomax on The Beatles' Apple Records label and released as a single in 1968.

The main reason I uploaded this is because it has a better quality sound than other versions I've found here.The slideshow is something I threw together in less than 2 hours, but hopeful you guys will like it. The pictures are all from around the time the song was written.

Lyrics:
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

They should have thrown this on Yellow Submarine.

I love this song! It reminds me a bit of Donovan's "Sunshine Superman"

If it was written around the time of the White Album that means it was probably written during their trip to India where Donovan was there too so maybe it really was inspired by it!

"Isnt it a pity and a shame" how George had so many good songs that never made it onto Beatles albums?!

This was recorded at Goerge's House in Esher Surrey

Without George Martin, the Beatles were a garage band.

How there could be a place for Lennon's "Revolution #9" sh*t and no "Sour Milk Sea" on a White Album?

[ovelonse]

@BRProvince or into the White Album

[beatlesholic13]

This has Clapton, Harrison and McCartney on it, and I don't think the other Beatles were on it.

I like this song. One of George's gems. How nice to hear the Beatles jamming. I like your video, too. The video images really support and go well with the tune. Thank you for the post.

In Jackie Lomax's version, you can faintly hear George singing in the background. Someone should try to take Jackie's vocals out and just have George.

there's a touch of Old Brown Shoe about it. Very good.
