The Beatles: Carnival of Light (Closest Recreation)

SEE POINTS OF INTEREST BELLOW!

This is my attempt to get as close to the famed elusive track Carnival of Light, 5 January 1967.

I have used a combo of genuine Beatles Voices and instruments from the Sgt Pepper Era and interviews, sentence mixing and a Paul McCartney impression by myself.

There are tape loops, distortions, echo, and really trying to get everything that's written about COL into this. I'm sure I have missed some stuff and might do a revised version in the future


POINTS OF INTEREST:

Hope you enjoy!
