We had a conversation in another thread a few weeks ago about what people thought they heard in the run out groove. Here’s a whole thread for that topic. If someone finds that conversation, link to it in a post in this thread.

Not strictly true. It was included on Capitol’s 1980 Rarities album.

I was actually tripping on a little acid one night while listening to this song, and when the very end came on words flashed before my eyes saying “it never could be any other way”. 

 

Still trying to to figure out what it means though. ahdn_paul_01

Sgt. Pepper ‘s inner groove is an out of place 2 second loop that they put on there because they could, similar to Her Majesty or Can You Take Me Back, so why would there be an extended edition.

Because there will be an original tape of the recording before it could get into the ‘Groove’.

There is an extended ‘Can You Take Me Back’, it runs for over 2 1/2 minutes. And you could argue that there is an extended ‘Her Majesty ‘ due to the final chord being intact on take 3 which has also been booted.

It could be argued that there are two “Extended” versions of the Inner Groove.

The looped version created for its release on CD, while a longer looped version was cut by hand for the mono vinyl remaster.

There are these 4 versions

 

Sidenote:

I got this from an article that references some Beatles website made by this one guy.  I think his name is Joe or something like that.

^ Good site to use, @William Shears Campbell. paul-mccartney-thumb_gif

I hope everyone is cool with me moving the conversation here. Moving posts is limited now, but I think this one is justified.

Oddly enough, that was the original intent of the inner groove “chatter” on this album. You have to remember that this album was made during a time when many turntables did not feature an automatic return. Instead, you had to physically remove the needle from the record once it reached the inner groove. Therefore, unless you removed the needle, the inner groove would play on and on.

I read somewhere John can be heard saying “I was so high” in the background of the inner groove.

I always hear “Never to see any other way” as if after listening to the album you will see things differently.
