Description
The "Indian Rope Trick" is an unofficial Beatles vinyl LP released in 1977. It features a collection of out-takes, demos, and unreleased tracks from various sessions, including songs like "Mein Bonnie," "It's Only Love," and "Hey Bulldog." The title track, "Indian Rope Trick," is a famous ode to the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The Beatles with others visiting in Rishikesh India sing a birthday song to Michael Love of the Beach Boys who was also attending the meditation retreat There's a spoof song by George singing about being a pirate soon after he lost his lawsuit regarding his song "My Sweet Lord".
The vinyl is used and in good to very good condition with some signs of wear and noticeable surface noise, but no skipping. The cover is white with plenty of wear and discoloration. The cover sleeve is a paper fold out with titles on one side and a Beatles photo on the other with plenty of wear and discoloration. The inner sleeve is rough as well. This is not a display piece but a historical collage of the Beatles around the time of their epic sojourn to India. I picked this up at Beatle Fest in the late 70's in Los Angeles.
