I read somewhere about this song. It seems like a crazy psychedelic sound collage conceived by Paul. It lasted more than 30 minutes, so it wasn't included on the "Anthology" series, and it wasn't anymore than a series of strange noises and instruments.

I would like you all to give us more information on that. Has it been bootlegged at all?

No,it has never been bootlegged.
It was made up as the soundtrack for an 'event' at The Roundhouse Theatre, London, in January 1967.

The tracks are as such:
Track 1: distorted drum and organ
Track 2: distorted lead guitar
Track 3: Church organ,voices and sound effects
Track 4: more sound effects

The voices are Paul and John shouting random phrases such as "Barcelona!" and "are you alright?"

Basically, this 12:38 recording is similar to Revolution 9.
