The Beatles - I Wanna Be Your Man (alternate take)

An alternative take of this early rocker, discarded because Ringo's headphone mix was causing confusion.

Que Ridiculo!!!

Es absurdo y una falta de respeto total a Los Beatles, no tiene sentido y no deberias decir que es una toma alterna.

¡Esto es sólo una broma! ¡Amo los Beatles!

I heard the Beatles had Ringo do this alternate take to exercise the demons of Pete Best.

The Rolling Stones begged to have this song after hearing the "Satanic Starkey" demo. However, they botched it up, and decided not to revisit the Satan stuff again until later in the decade.

THE BIRTH OF PUNK AND HEAVY METAL!!!!!

The Beatles invented the latter half of the 20th Century.

It's amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The screaming is because they got blisters on their fingers.

In retrospect, during the Rolling Stone interview w/ Jann Wenner, Lennon intimated that the alternate take was released on an early bootleg, which somehow got into the hands of one particular ex-con....... Charles Manson.

An interesting fact: In 1965, Charles Manson was one of many struggling hopefuls auditioning for The Monkees. He did the alternate version of 'I Wanna

Be Your Man (including screeching,demonic wails!) & of course,failed the audition. Manson replied "Wait in 4 years, BITCH!"

Stig O'Hara was at this time working at Abbey Road studios, and was indeed in charge of the mixing for most of the artists who recorded there. On hearing this blatant rip-off by the Beatles, of his old band the Rutles, he got angry and messed up their recordings (this is a prime example). Sadly for the Beatles, they were never to be heard of again after this uncouth malice, as mind altering substances had not yet entered the decade (and later made this sound popular).

thankfully technology has come a long way since the 60s, and this kind of studio mishap dosent happen, with headphone bleed into the mics.
