I don't have a problem with Rock and Roll Music& Words Of Love, and Leave My kitten Alone would have been a good uptempo choice for the LP. The rest....blah. I Call Your Name might have worked as well, having only appeared on an EP.

But one suggestion I do have is to use "I Call Your Name", which was an EP track. I think that works as well as "One After 909", which could then be saved for Rubber Soul. <br /><br />"I Call Your Name" was given as a single to Billy J. Kramer, which does raise the idea that they could have used other giveaway songs of the era--"From A Window", "It's For You", "I Don't Want To See You Again"--but there aren't any recordings of the Beatles doing them, so it would be strictly theoretical.

I also add Paul's demo of "One and One is Two" to the AHDN album as Ringo's vocal turn, finally making it add up to 14 songs.The Reconstructorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01958648744188740709noreply@blogger.com
