Just Saving You The Trouble
Something for all you drug users and/or conspiracy theorists out there. 23 tracks from Seltaeb Eht, recorded backwards, so you can bliss out, dissect its contents, search for clues or just get your chops in order for Rock Band. Funny enough, The Beatles began playing backwards games early on – in 1963 – when the band’s merchandising arm was christened “Seltaeb.” By 1965, the boys were experimenting with the concept in their music (“Rain” was probably the first prominent use of backwards recording in pop music). It didn’t take long for John Lennon to embrace the concept fully, leading to Sgt. Pepper’s’ and The White Album’s use of more sophisticated shenanigans, some fueling the Paul Is Dead rumors. As for “Revolution #9,” it was such a convoluted mess to begin with that this backwards version just sounds like a remix. So… what’s the purpose? There is none. Thanks once again to Grateful for the re-up.

This is a great concept, but no "Gnos Nrehtron A Ynlo"? I think they missed an opportunity there… ;-)
Yvoorg os ho. !Dralliw sknaht.
I saw John. I talked to John. I saw Ringo, he didn't kill me.
Dude, if you play this stuff backwards it sounds like they're singing Beatle songs. Whoa.
Which would also suggest that Paul is alive.
No way!
What a great find! Always something interesting here…and I love it. Thanks, bbq

Hi Willard – Ditto above comments, excellent site, always very interesting, fantastic range of tunes, better class of vistors even – jokes rather than abuse. Thanks for seltaeB n excellent Interstellar Overdrive.
And I never even said thanx 4 Revolution 1, CSN&Y, Dead, Doors, Dylan. I apologise n Thank You lots
PS I love the Anthology version of Ob-La-Di. Peace
Many thanks for all the comments.
This is so great… I long ago lost my copy of several Beatles songs backwards (done while under a certain fog).
One note: The Lennon song "Meat City" is also quite interesting backwards. The 45 has a brief interlude that sounds like mice squeeking, but backwards John says "see the album". So being good little lads, we did as John suggested. Playing the album version backwards, John says something alltogether different.
And I'm sure this being a PC-world, I cannot repeat what he says here!
Wonderwall (George's soundtrack) is also better backwards than forwards!

Fuck the PC world and clue us in. Just, watch what you say about Wonderwall, that's a fave around here.
Llih Eht No Loof Eht is really interesting. I think it would be worth constructing a song with that chord progression. It's just so surprising.
