I listened to this on headphones and it sounded like the Beatles were inside my head in a big, echoey room (I always thought I had a rather spacious head) and the beginning of each individual note of the guitar solo bumped into my right ear so sharply that the world seemed slightly jarred.
Needless to say, t’was fab…

Posted over at the Bootlegzone forum – a link to 60 second demo of I’ll Follow The Sun.Enjoy.
I wonder when this was recorded. Probably early to mid 1964, I’d have to guess.
You can really hear the similarity between this and the 1960 version.

Offline Thanks, that’s some neat stuff up there! Makes you really appreciate the finished, polished version (which I certainly do prefer).

Offline Do you guys know why people say that Paul played acoustic guitar on this one, i’m listening to it right now and all i can hear is 3 guitars, George’s Gretsch and John’s acoustic rhythm from the backing track and George’s overdubbed solo, performed on his Gretsch Tennessean.

Offline What makes you so sure John plays acoustic? Paul wrote the song and I’ve always known Paul to be the one playing the picking pattern and singing.

Offline 1. George’s playing the main riff on an electric guitar.
2. Paul didn’t get his Texan and Casino until after Beatles For Sale was released.

Offline I was just listening to the 1960 live version from Liverpool, and realized for the first time that Paul wrote this song when he was 18. Unbelievable.

For the sake of quibbling, and Beatles fans love quibbling, the recording is thought to be from around April 1960 so, if that’s right, then Paul would have been 17 (not turning 18 for another month or two), tho it wasn’t finished till years later.

Offline I was playing music with a friend, pulled this song out of my back pocket, and realized how dark the song truly is. it is upbeat, in a major key, and talks about following the sun as an optimistic future, yet the song is actually talking about leaving a relationship before it reaches a point of turmoil. Paul is giving up on love, not something normally talked about in Beatles songs.
