The Beatles - The Palace of the King of the Birds

- An unreleased song by the Beatles. I did some editing but it's all them playing. The song was written by Paul McCartney, who played the organ, and was soon joined by Ringo on drums, and presumably Harrison on guitar and Lennon on Fender VI bass; it has a peculiar 'Grateful Dead-esque' feeling. Being a jam they didn't care about mistakes, so I cut most of them (the original recording goes for longer than 14 minutes).
Edit: I just realised that on Wikipedia, somebody published a page of this as a song, with duration and all. It makes me smile, as the duration (and title) was made up by me for this video, just for fun. The original was over 15 minutes long, this is an edit I made on Garage band. The title of the original track was The Castle of The King of Bird, but to be honest it could be a retcon from later, when Paul was writing music for Rupert the bear. It really teaches you to take any information from Wikipedia with a pinch of salt. Or a handful. - Hudba
I miss being young, and the joy and excitement of finding new Beatles songs
I'm sixteen and discovered The Beatles mid 2021 and have been infatuated with them ever since. Every time I find a new song I haven't heard from them I get ecstatic. Loved this song in the Get Back episode!
Me to.I remember when i was 14 and all of a sudden The Beatles were on the radio...What a great time.
Young????
BAH!
It's SO overrated.
Especially seeing how people get more stupid by the second.
I hear ya

The Beatles effortlessly doing a Grateful Dead jam.
exactly what I was thinking
Jerry all over the place...
Wulp...sounds like the Dead came from behind and learned up some skillies
Jerrry never dies
just came here after hearing it on the beatles doc, man their cast offs are better than 99.9999% of other bands hits
yeah but if this was them, then anyone might be able to do anything, this is good news, right?
That is how they lived up to their name Beat All.
This
what harrison did with the guitar on this track is sensational, both in terms of riffs and solos, one of the examples that he is and has always been a fantastic guitarist
How the fuck did I never know this song existed!?!? Until Get back? Great tune!
He could play just about any style of music, and if he didn't know how he could learn it in a heart beatl.
Just saw Sir Paul over the weekend in Lexington, KY. Amazing to watch a 76 year old man play a variety of instruments for three hours knowing he doesn't need the money, attention, accolades, etc. That's when you know a person is possessed by music.
He doesn't need the money, he just WANTS it 😉
Paul has always been about the music, never about the money or even fame. When the Beatles split Paul took his band on the road to colleges just to have that musical experience too. He wanted to try his hand at all genres, all experiences ...
Doesn't need the money but he clearly needs the attention.

2021, and I've only just discovered this gem - you can hear Ringo's voice at the start, and it's definitely John saying "Okay boys..." @4:47. Great to hear Beatles music I've previously not heard after 30+ years of listening.
Same boat buddy! Thanks YT algo. Haha

This is a badass song title.
It's from Rupert the Bear.
the picture is badass as well
My favourite Beatles photo session. You can’t help but see how detached and focused on their individual worlds they are... a split second moment before “the book” is closed.
I still find it incredible that the same band that had girls fainting in sold out stadiums across the world with songs like 'hold your hand' and 'twist and shout' are the exact same band that practically invented and perfected psychedelic rock. Truly the most incredible band to ever play
Gromit Pesley i dont recall saying it was?
Gabe Thornes oh shit spicy
I know man, what an insane career they had. Truly an unprecedented group of guys.
There is a knock off 45 second hard thrashing song where John is kibitzing with George and simply says- " I want to do a song with only two chords"- then rips into it. Basically the foundation for all punk rock. Never heard punk rock earlier than January 1969 in the officially unreleased composition. Bootlegs started appearing the following year.
what's it called Mark?
Never expected the Beatles to record something like this, even as a jam. Sounds like an outtake from the Dead's "Anthem of the Sun."
I love the beatles but they are one of the strangest, most mysterious bands I've ever known
why?
@@ezekahh He probably means that It's a mystery to most people how this group was able to accomplish what they did in 7 short years and in the process revolutionize popular music. It of course was not a supernatural process by any means, but still somewhat mysterious if you weren't there with them every step of the way, which of course the vast majority of us weren't, so it's quite difficult to fathom. It's how they alchemized in just a couple of short years from what basically started out as an insanely popular boy band, singing simple and joyful pop tunes like _A Hard Day's Night, Can't Buy Me Love,_ and _If I Fell_ in 1964 into the complex and experimental (yet still popular) band they morphed into by 1966 singing such baroque, psychedelic and eastern style tunes such as _Eleanor Rigby, Tomorrow Never Knows_ and _Love You to._ It does boggle the mind --- it's like that scene in the movie _The Wizard of Oz_ where Dorothy walks through the door and her Black and White world suddenly becomes a gloriously colorful one.
@@Hernal03 indeed, the evolution and change that occurred in the trajectory of the beatles is very remarkable. These last few months I've been practically obsessed with them, and it's really interesting to delve into their career. I don't know, but there really is something fascinating about the Beatles' songs. Maybe the sound ahead of its time, the psychedelia or just the fact that practically all of its songs are memorable and great (in my opinion).
@@ezekahh Below is a post I made on a one of the Beatle reaction channels after the reactors asked for more information about the Beatles musical progression:
The Beatles went through 4 distinct phases and showed signs of progress in each one by delving into different types of music. Roughly, those phases were broken into groups of 3 albums each (along with the associated singles often not included on the albums). Every 3rd album or so they would move on to something totally new, but within those phases there was definitely progression within each individual album. It's amazing that their entire legacy was cemented in just 7 short years. The phases are roughly as follows (albums listed in recording order, not release date order):
( 1 ) --- The Mop Top / Teen idol phase: Albums: Please, Please Me (1963); With the Beatles (1963); A Hard Day's Night (1964)
( 2 ) --- The Folk Rock / Country Rock phase: Albums: Beatles For Sale (1964); Help! (1965); Rubber Soul (1965)
( 3 ) --- The Psychedelic Rock Phase: Albums: Revolver (1966); Sgt. Peppers ... (1967); Magical Mystery Tour (1967)
( 4 ) --- The Professional /eclectic phase: Albums: The White Album (1968); Let It Be (1969); Abbey Road (1969)
*NOTE:* All of the singles they released that were not included on their official albums can be found in the 2 disc compilation collection called _Beatles Past Masters I_ and _Beatles Past Masters II_ --- most of their well known hits and popular songs can be found on these 2 albums (though in my opinion, their album tracks were equally as great, just not as well known). A few other tunes not released as singles or on the above albums appear on the _Yellow Submarine soundtrack album._ That being said, I would also like to add that we should not forget about their wonderful producer George Martin who also contributed much to the Beatles music --- including the playing of Piano and Harpsichord on a variety of tracks --- truly the 5th Beatle. Hope this helps a bit in defining the different stages in their musical progress.
That's rock and roll baby!
I don't understand why this song (and many others) were not released on the new vinyl reissue. It's such a missed opportunity.
Because : "this bird has flown"
Para ponerlas en una edición futura y que compres el disco de nuevo
Well... We have Beatles new releases for the next 25 or more years. You and I gona die while fore generations still enjoy new Beatles songs.
Never knew this song was a part of the Beatles' repertoire. Fascinating!
Not sure if having something played once in studio, and recorded could be called part of a repertoire.
Aw man this one is just so fantastic. I’m glad it wasn’t really heard by most people. Feels special or like a good secret
This is such a masterful little jam, and it is so relaxed. It swings easily along for at least these five minutes and then some more. Most enjoyable! Thank you, Paul, Ringo, George, and John for leaving us all of these wonderful sonic pleasures to enjoy for the rest of our lives. And thank you Paulus Caesar for the sensitive editing.
Just discovered this. Everything they did was excellent.
The Beatles - The Palace Of The King Of The Birds (Get Back sessions)
The full version and It's The Beatles!
Actually, the Beatles Did occasionally produce masterpieces out of thin air. That is what was precisely extraordinary and different about them. McCartney came into the studio with the entire melody of Yesterday in his head, while John came in with Strawberry Fields. Just two of many examples.
and in the documenatary we watch Paul as Get Back flows out into the world
@ndjfksnwvehsbdjckvkkfss you what?
@@bletheringfool should saved that cool intro, though!
@@bletheringfool .....as far as WE know. 🤔
These are bad examples. Paul may have dreamt up the melody for Yesterday but he spent weeks working it out before it was recorded. John spent the entire time he was in Spain filming How I Won The War working on SFF. It was probably among the most fleshed out of any Beatles songs once it got to the studio.
Once you watch and listen to the Magical Mystery Tour album/ movie you understand the essence of their desire to become less commercial and more into creating. Sessions like this one demonstrate their ability as musicians and the pure joy they enjoyed when not under incredible and increasing pressure to perform and conform to the mainstream for the sake of their label. Deep down the Beatles wanted to return to basics . Have their music represent who they were and less what everyone wanted them to be . Stripped back from lyrics and politics they are simply creating a beautiful jam here ....as were so many of their contemporaries at the time.
One of Harrison's most brilliant riffs. I love Paul's piano version in rehearsals at Twickenham even more though. But this is brilliant and very Beatle-esque.
Harrison's riff is good. It's Canned Heat (good) meets Grateful Dead (bad usually) written by Paul (he's no John Lennon). Songs sounds groovy for a while but for 5 minutes it's never develops into much unless you are stoned, I guess? If only it was 10 minutes it would be declared genius.
Send me Twickenham if you can please
@@mikepeden293 It's been taken down a few times, but here's one: czcams.com/video/4yjVqofIQhQ/video.html
I've left notes in the comment section there as to where to find The Palace of the King of the Birds ...
@@oppothumbs1 greatful dead = brilliant all the time. Might I suggest trying lsd and trying them again
The main riff is John’s on the fender VI Harrison is the lead and the chords
The Beatles did not suddenly produce a masterpiece out of thin air, it took sessions like these to work out ideas and work around a basic riff or theme. Just like any other band, you play together and suddenly an idea or a phrase appears. Then you build it into a song.
Finally. I don't think most people have any idea how it works; they find a random jam on yt and expect a hidden Hey Jude, or A day in the life. When it's obviously not, they resort to name calling and sterile comparisons.
Just like Jimmy Page said about the riff for "whole Lotta love" Voted the best heavy metal riff of all time.
Shows in the fact that they often did 75 or 113 takes. You hear a track of "Let it Be," when Paul didn't have all the words, etc. They worked their asses off. And it shows in the quality of their recordings.
haha get a load of this guy the beatles are just like any other band! Both lennon and mccartney said exactly the opposite, that their songs came "out of thin air"
@@adkatadkut422 Talking about the basiss of the song. Tons of videos and tons of takes show them working on those songs to perfect them, hone them, polish them, which is why there performances are as untouchable as they are.
Still, at this late stage in the bands' existence they were producing heaps of creative vibes. Good that you pulled this out and cleaned it up for us, thanks
This is the most beautiful instrumental track I've ever heard. I love it
Giuseppe Grasso And completely random guitar chord progressions. Though it's a Paul song it reminds me of the stuff Lennon wrote in India.
If you like this try Grateful Dead's Dark Star, now that is a beautiful jam. Jerry Garcia is a much better guitarist than George Harrison.
Hell he is
@@robertl6591 So what if he's better
Lol, it’s a two chord jam. If you assume the key of E, it goes from E major to D major and back again lol. Not too complicated.
Never knew this existed! Love to see this cleaned up and given some kind of official release. Maybe on next year's inevitable 'Let It Be' remaster / reissue ?
That'll be nice. Lots of cleaned-up demos.
Be nice - might take some editing (like this) though! I think this was a 10-minute ramble at first.
Wow. Does sound like 1969 era Grateful Dead. Deserves an official release.
This is my favorite version by far. Absolutely 100% Grateful Dead-esque. How does it feel to successfully produce a Beatles song? You've done a masterful job, and on free software in 2012 to boot. I always come back to this version, and that's because of you. Thank you.
There are other versions!?
@@kevinsnell886 I'm not sure if this is the only recording of the song, but the more in-depth explanation is in the description of the video! This is a (perfect) edit of a full 15 minute jam.
I just finished listening to Grateful Dead Pembroke Pines, Florida 5/22/77, Morning Dew closing the set. Perfect synchronicity...
Wow, life long Beatles fan and never heard this. Unlike anything I've heard from them.💚
I could listen to this song for an hour straight
This is amazing Paulus! I also checked out the full length version. Nice Grateful Dead style jam recorded right around when "jam rock" was getting popular. Always ahead of their time. Thanks for the edit!
This is a beautiful melody
Mr.Paulus Caesar, I infinitely thank you for introducing me to this song, and a few select tunes on the playlist. Love! You're a cool guy dude
1000% the reason 👍🏽 The documentary is an incredible gift to Beatles fans 🥰
So much Fire on the Mountain here. A song Mickey and the Dead didn't play until more than something like seven years after this. Really wild.
Interesting to hear John play bass on this jam session - it definitely stands out in places.
Only the Beatles could afford to toss this off.
Well THIS was shit, but that bass riff has potential. I just don't see Paul sticking to a bass groove through a whole jam without throwing some slides and dissonance. Ringo is not playing ... that's a decent drummer (NOT PAUL AT ALL, you need some drumming Independence to pull that simple groove) ) with more of a Jazz feel (ride cymbal timing and buzz snare figures? not Ringo's repertoire but VERY Charlie Watts (not saying it is Watts). The pace was so NON Beatles and the only talking was "Ok boys"? which does sound like John but the chatter would've started right there . Damn if this sounds like a Beatles jam at all.
mickavellian definitely ringo playing. ok boys is from another track anyway. it sounds like a beatles jam because it's the beatles, the only question is who's playing organ and guitar, could be anybody on bass (john or george), scholars don't agree. Ringo is most definitely on drums, I don't understand why people always put him down, he was a competent drummer in many genres. and this is a very loose jam anyway, so full of sloppy playing, just to warm up.
I am NOT defending Ringo anymore , his work is there . to say Ringo was competent is like saying that Michael Schumacher was a good driver.
Paulus Caesar Of the 3 Beatle guitarists, I would say John was the most unlikely playing the bass in this jam. The way he played sloppy bass on the live version of Let it Be or his composition of his Get Back guitar solo, does not suggest he's as good of a bassist as Paul or George was. But since George was most probably on guitar here, that melodic bass is most likely to be Paul's and I strongly agree with mickavellian that the bass riff had potential. The guitar riff was well trippy. After years of listening to Ringo's drumming, I would say it was him on this track as well. I wish they would have done this more seriously as only the bass was going steady and in focus most of the time and the rest of them were just loose. It would have been better if they polished this into a serious recording and people have said in other videos that this sounded like Grateful Dead. Had they made an instrumental out of this, it would have been the only one of its kind on the Let it Be album and second to Flying from Magical Mystery Tour.
I feel ASHAMED it took me 3 listens to say THAT IS RINGO but (here I go excusing myself) wrapping my head about Ringo's way of developing a song . YES no doubt . His little unexpected silences, and the closing was 100% Ringo and I will kick myself for 17 days straight. Agreed John nor Ringo could touch the bass.(Ringo says it "I dont play bass cause thats too hard for me)
While Ringo was NOT a bad keyboard player and John was no Paul, John COULD play "Imagine" There are questions if John or Phil Spector played the piano in Imagine. but Spector was amazing on keyboards. He wou;ve thrown some some wacky RACHMANINOFF Partita No. 4 in D Major, BWV 828: No. 5, Sarabande embellishments within verses.
. George was no McCartney on Bass but he DID right the iconic bass line of "And I love her" (who knew!
Just goes to show how great the Beatles are
Bang bang into the room
oh shit...
hahaha Nice comparison.
yes now that you mention it
Apple Corps should sue!
It sounds medieval in the beginning, like I’m walking through the halls of a castle in the 1500s
Clearly near the end you can hear John Lennon say "OK boys". So it's Beatles.
No-one has yet been able to provide us with the "holy grail" of the bootleg material - the 27 minute version of "Helter Skelter", which for some unknown reason Apple refused to release officially on the "Anthology" collection. It still remains deep in the vaults.
Will we ever get to hear it ?
27 minutes of Helter Skelter? Not so much Holy Grail as Holy Shirt.
That’s because Paul has it
Carnival of Light
@@stewartmacdonald5526 I agree that 27 minutes of "Helter" would be an endurance test for even the most rabid Beatles fan, but it has become a collector's item, such is its legend status. We should be allowed to hear it.
@@kylejohanesson the sgt. pepper rehearsals. they recorded everything for hours each time they were there [like LET IT BE] but i don't know if the tapes were saved. or maybe their secret demo for RCA records in late '66 when their EMI contract was ending. yes the beatles would have been on RCA had EMI not beat their offer.
And, of course, Ringo’s drumming is perfect
Like clockwork
Well it's certainly Ringo. His style is unmistakable.
He fits himself into any noise and makes it music
Johns dreaminess on organ, Paul’s optimism on bass, George’s creative openness and Ringo’s charming sense for the occasion on drums. What a truly Beatles jam this is! (I hope I got the instrumentation right! Lol)
You’ve got Paul and John mixed up
@@scottistrad Oh well, it was a nice thought.
The Base Line is very grateful and John Lennon play the Base guitar, I like it very much! But never I can bye it.
I am really a great Beatles fan, and for the rest of my life. Thanks so much for showing us this wonderful Video with the very good session music! !👌👍👏❤

Hey boys.
ricardo cornejo sounds like him
sounds like at some point someone will come to the microphone and sing "Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune. Something to make us all happy..."
exactly what my ears told me.
Im shocked that this hasn’t been released as a single. Some people out there want more Beatles songs, and there’s plenty still left to give.
THE GREATEST BAND EVER AND WILL BE. MUSICAL GENIUSES.
I still would have liked to hear the full version. The length of the tune doesn't matter. Shoot if I can listen to all of In Da Gadda Da Vida, I can handle something that is around 14 minutes. lol
Pink Floyd (post-Syd, Pre-Meddle) would record at Abbey Road at the smaller studio, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if this made its way into their sphere of influence. It’s practically an outtake from the “More” soundtrack album
To me Piper sounds beatlesy at times. This is way too upbeat to be More though. More is really abstract. Maybe some of the white album like revolution 9 popped some ideas into Rogers head.
reminded me of that 68-71 era of PF also
Isn’t it the other way around ?
I thought it sounded s bit like the B side of Pink Floyd's "Meddle" LP. Sings. "Overhead the albatross lies motionless upon the air."
Great edit of the 14 minute original jam. I keep listening to it.
Oh so well done. What a gem to have allighted upon. You good human you.
This kinda reminds me of a Grateful Dead tune.
Reminds me of late 60's Pink Floyd.
Very Jefferson Airplane as well.
Fire on the Mountain
or Traffic
Ha! Everyone's comments here fit well.
This is a pretty good edit, as the original really meanders. Thanks, poster.
Forever Grateful Beatles 💀🌹
Can't get enough of these gents. Thank you.
I don't know which I find more confounding and almost out of the twilight zone realm, the fact that until September 25, 2021, the day before my 51st birthday, I am both hearing and hearing of this song. Like many other people my age, I imagine, the Beatles were my first real experience with being introduced to a life long love of music, back when my mother was still able to find most of their albums for sale in record stores (1979-1981 time frame approx) and I was 9 - it's not as if I didn't have enough time to find the opportunity? Second, this video was uploaded June 19, 2012 (day after Sir Paul's bday, coincidence, yes?) and that means I'm almost a decade late to this - it feels weird to be so newly wrapped up in something a bunch of other people hashed out almost a decade ago.
P.S. I really like this a lot and it was fascinating to read your description. I was worried it was just me who found this to have a certain sound to it but clearly I was being paranoid - Grateful Dead, lol...I know how people can be with their musical loves and didn't know if a GD comparison would offend anyone - I am glad this is not the case because wow, it's a little uncanny.
I hope this isn't a ridiculous question but what, if anything, can you tell me about the photo you included?
Thank you and I am sorry to have arrived wayyyy late to your party. Honestly, with the music situation of today it is like winning mini lotteries when people like yourself find and share these never-before-heard gems. It's like getting new music after all, even if it is a life time later.
Haha, I'm just hearing (of) this for the first time tonight! I collected Beatles bootleg albums pretty hardcore in the late eighties and never came across this. Great stuff!
Beautiful song and beautiful editing. You did a great job. Thanks. Well, Beatles did a good job too.... ;)

People are talking influences, I'm hearing inspiration from "Albatross' era Fleetwood Mac, and The Pink Floyd. The bass lines really hold this together.....lovely.
Very Dead-like. The Beatles just jamming. We never get to hear them like this, everything is usually so polished.
Personally, I prefer the raw ones. Like this video.
Also my favorite is just watching them jam.
Lots of bootlegs full of complete sessions and jams like this.
Thanks, Never heard this before. Faded away many times into the Dead of the eighties.
Lovely chill sounds from the Fab Four!!! 🙂💛🌻✌🙏
This is an early version of a song Paul would later record and consider using for the Rupert The Bear movie soundtrack. However, that movie was never finished, so the finished soundtrack album was not officially released. I'm sure there's a playlist of the album on CZcams somewhere.
Did he reuse any of those songs on later albums?
with Castle rather than Palace
czcams.com/video/cQ2X202Iskc/video.html
He should release that soundtrack even without the movie.
McGuinn was king of The Byrds! The Beatles knew him, hung out at his Laurel Canyon home, and dropped in on studio recording sessions as late as 1970, but his home was hardly a palace, though Harrison Ford installed new kitchen cabinets in 1971 before he became famous. Ford and McGuinn were born on the same day of the same year. I wonder how those cabinets are holding up.
McCartney and Vaughan were also born on the same day and same year.
So many songs have been re-hashed over and over and then boom, this little gem comes along..
The Dead meets the Allmans. The Beatles would have been a hell of a band in the 70's. I truly think they would have grown and excelled. Even more than they already had, of course.
That is around mark 4:35, Lennon stops playing guitar (sounds like the Get Back guitar sound) to maybe chat off-mic with Yoko for 10 seconds, then says OK BOYS, and joins back in to end the session. Sounds plausible.
Except Lennon's playing BASS.
4:47
◎Paul's organ's harmony······『Led Zeppelin Ⅱ』'Thank you'
◎George's guitar melody······Grateful Dead『Live Dead』'Dark star'
◎John's bass line······Jefferson Airplane『Surrealistic pillow』'White rabbit'
◎Ringo's Drum······Paul Butterfield blues band『East West』'East-West'
This is great masterpiece of early in the morning
I cant quite figure out this coment. I dont know if you are saying the Beatles copied a organ harmony from led zeppelin or the other way round
Beatles are something else … to infinity ♾ 💫
Could it be that this is around the time that Lennon and McCartney went to some Floyd gigs?
Could have been Floyd who were recording at Abbey Road around that time might have been picking up this vibe.
There's a description, in Hunter Davies' official bio of the Beatles, of them and Floyd meeting up at Abbey Road and exchanging 'lame hellos'.
simply amazing
Sounds like something that would have been fitting to use on ‘Magical Mystery Tour’.
Seams like its NEVER ENDING, the music that keeps coming, thank to ALL THE PEOPLE WHO PUT THIS ON the WORLD WIDE WEB,never thought in my life would see such an advancement in this communication process, I'm 72 remember like yesterday the transistor radio ,WOW

Beatles forever!
Pretty clean edits, they didn't jump out at me.
I've heard bits of this before. It sounds very interesting. George sounding really cool on guitar there.
Sounds like they heard "Dark Star" on "Live Dead", and wanted to try to jam like that.
This is the Beatles.I read Richie Unberger's books on the unreleased Beatles book 2006.An he talks about this song.It was recorded Jan 2,1969.He talks about it being a Grateful Dead like tune.He has John playing the organ in the song.
John playing organ is more plausible than Paul as the bass playing as it more lively and McCartney like than what I feel John would do,
Early dead sound alike and not the beatles but fun to imagine the possibilities u.nless recording logs prove otherwise
I love this. So much.
Thank you for posting. Really.
The name of the song was taken from a song later recorded, but not released, by McCartney in 1990. It was then called "Castle of the King of the Birds". I don't know if it was intended to be called like that in 1969, but in the end it was just a warm up jam with a few chords anyway. The intro is pretty much the same though.
Probably a reference to the Persian poem "COnference of the Birds by Farid al_Din, an allegory of spiritual enlightenment
@@jfziemba Maybe. I thought of Conference of the Birds too.
I didn't know this song, but the guitar is undoubtedly played by George.
this is amazing
What is this insane loveliness??!

Interesting to hear this after thinking I've heard everything Beatles. I wonder if the 14 minute version exists? I would also be interested in hearing anymore history of this song as there is no information at all in all of the Beatles recording history books I have. I like it and just stumbled upon it today.
Those photos look like my dream Gardener's Question Time.
It's cool to hear the Beatles jam
Beautifully haunting ✨
