Harrison puts end to missing LP rumors

Over the years, many Beatles fans have wondered what happened to the "Yellow Submarine"
EP that EMI Records considered putting out in 1970 as an adjunct to the "Yellow Submarine"
soundtrack. The EP reportedly had the six new Beatles songs included in the movie, plus an
early version of "Across the Universe," which later showed up on the "Let it Be" album. In an
interview with Billboard editor Timothy White published in the October issue of Guitar World,
George Harrison says there's "nothing I can remember" about such an EP, but he did confirm
that an early version of "Across the Universe" did exist and has, in fact, seen the light of day. "I
remember that the early version of 'Across the Universe' was the better one. But we finally put
that one out on a World Wildlife Fund Charity album (in 1969). And it also later went on the
'Anthology (2)' album," he said.
