Mean Mr Mustard

from BDJ's Cellar Full of Remixes Hosted by BDJ

We all know Mean Mr Mustard as a part of the big B-side Medley of Abbey Road. Surprisingly, Mean Mr Mustard was composed long before Abbey Road, during the Beatles stay with the Maharishi in India. They probably did not think of it very highly, because they did not record it on the White (double) album, nor on Let It Be. Apparently, they were in such dire straits to fill the B-side of Abbey Road that they finally recorded it; in its form on Abbey Road, it is not really a complete song, it moves into Polythene Pam before it develops a middle-eight and a proper ending. Here, for the first time ever, we present a 'complete song' version of Mean Mr Mustard. Produced by taken the vocals of the Let it Be sessions and combining with Paul's fuzz bass on Abbey Road. To complete the song, we added an - original...- intro, middle eight, and ending.
