This is wonderful. As with the original McCartney arrangement of Peter and Gordon’s Woman - the 45 is a remake with different orchestration - the stridency of Cilla’s version is absent. Instead there is subtlety and lightness and the whole thing just _works_.
Here’s the good stuff!
Poor quality snippets of Macca’s demo of Step Inside Love have been circulating for years, but here’s a full version from a BBC editor who was lent an acetate which he copied to a quarter inch tape.
In 1968 Paul could do no wrong!

A postscript with a postcard: Paul found time to make it to the mailbox, sending this to Ringo, with a Jan 31 postmark. With the postal strike going on (see the front pages), who knows how long it took to reach its destination. But it's the thought that counted📬

BTW: I'm not a total AI hater. Like anything it's a mixed bag. Would I use it to help write code? Yeah, coz I don't *love* code, it's just stuff I use to get something done. No, I don't want to see AI art, I want to see what YOU can do, I am more interested in your biro stickmen, if you made them.
