Holy Grail Recording #3 - Revolver studio outtakes (1966)

In this series, In The Life Of...The Beatles presents the top 10 unreleased recordings of the Beatles.

There are too many great as-yet-unheard outtakes from the Revolver sessions to choose from. Here are some examples:

• "Mark I" ("Tomorrow Never Knows") - takes 2-3 - take 1 was released on Anthology 2.
  
• "Got To Get You Into My Life" - takes 1-4, 6-8. Take 5 was released on Anthology 2.
  
• "Love You To" - take 1 - An acoustic recording with George on guitar and lead vocal, with Paul providing backing vocals. The song was titled "Granny Smith" at the time.
• "Rain" - takes 1-5
• "Dr. Robert" - takes 1-7
• "And Your Bird Can Sing" - take 1, takes 3-13. Take 1 was reportedly unrecognizable in terms of how it ended up on the album (take 2 was released on Anthology 2).
• "Taxman" - takes 1-10 (take 11 was released on Anthology 2).
• "I'm Only Sleeping" - takes 1-11 (An early all-acoustic "take 1" was released on Anthology 2).
  

Here's an outtake that did surface thanks to the Anthology series (released on the "Real Love" single), this is "Here, There and Everywhere" take 7 (with overdubs from take 14):
