Product Description

CD Description

The Exotic Beatles series is a collection of the most bizarre
and unusual covers of Beatles tracks ever recorded - featuring
artists from all over the world. After a 10 year hiatus the
series returns with the most eccentric offering yet. This news
will delight those thousands who bought the first 3 Volumes
and the many who will be dipping in for the first time.
EXOTIC BEATLES 1 was released in 1993 to much acclaim and featured
William Shatner's manic 'Lucy In The Sky', 'Yellow Submarine (Ondo)',
the Metropolitan Police Male Voice Choir, art critic Brian Sewell,
Reggae, Latin, Flamenco, Moog, and Sitar amongst others. Record
Collector wrote This is the sound of the world going mad.
EXOTIC BEATLES 2 included The Squirrels' hillbilly 'Let It Be', Arthur
Mullard's cockney 'Yusterday', the 'Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da' Polka, Japanese
a cappella and a 1920's style 'Hey Jude' amongst others. The cast list
included the late, great Frank Sidebottom, Maurice Chevalier, Lol
Coxhill, Mae West, Ron Geesin, The Beatle Barkers and Professor
Stanley Unwin. Melody Maker wrote This has to be the definit ive
Beat les' album , whilst Select stated As inexplicably brilliant as it is
totally obscure . The Independent claimed Sleeve of the year, no
contest .
EXOTIC BEATLES 3 was truly bizarre with Shang Shang Typhoon, Cathy
Berberian, and Mrs Yetta Bronstein. There was a speed metal
'Yesterday', Klaus Beyer and Joah Valley reappeared and there were
tracks by Doodles Weaver, Powerillusi, Fairground Organs and singing
sheep and dogs. Record Collector commented This record really is
beyond rat ional crit icism , the Mail On Sunday gushed More exciting
than the Beat les' Anthology , Making Music added An album of
grotesque beauty .
EXOTIC BEATLES 4 is the best yet with contributions from
Russia, (Bugotak, Boney Nem, Ariel and 7B), Baba Yaga from
Hungary, D.E.F. Orkestra from Turkey, Bozo Allegro from the
USA as well as Assagai, Brian Sewell, The Thurston Lava Tube,
Neck Valve, Klaus Beyer, Shan Kuan Liu Yun from Singapore and
Banda Plastica De Tepetlixpa from Mexico. Reviews and airplay
will follow from journalists and producers who were admirers of
the first three in the series.

bottom of the draw 16 July 2011
By Terry T
As I sat through this disc - I wondered if Volume four was one volume too far - one or two goodies - however I found myself skipping some of the tracks - perhaps "it's all too much"

4th Time Around 30 April 2011
By Richard
What began as a one off could very well end up as a series though the Sunday Times review which said "more exciting than the Anthology" seems rather daft for an upmarket paper.
So here's a further 28 mainly foreign Beatles covers with a thick booklet describing all the recordings including another track from art critic Brian Sewell-the only"artist" to va specially recorded for this series
Cleverest name is a Russian band called Boney Nem who it says here "made 13 albums of pop covers in a death metal style". Their version of And I Love Her is pretty unrecognisable
