A restored version of The Beatles rarely seen promotional video for “A Day In The Life” has been unveiled.
The clip arrived ahead of the reissue the band’s Number One singles compilation 1 as a 2-Blu-ray/1CD collection, now titled 1+.
The video for the Sgt Pepper track premiered over on Mashable.
The video features footage filmed across five hours in the company of The Beatles, with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards making cameo appearances.
The footage is interspersed with additional material of an orchestra filmed during recording of the track in 1967.
Essentially a restored and expanded update of The Beatles’ 1 compilation from 2000, the 200-minute 1+ includes the band’s 27 No 1 singles, with the restored videos, along with a second disc of 23 videos, including alternate versions, as well as rarely seen and newly restored films and videos; all include new audio mixes in deluxe CD/2DVD and CD/2Blu-ray packages. The original 27-track audio CD is also being made available with new stereo mixes.
They will be released on November 6 by Apple Corps Ltd/UMG.
A 2LP, 180-gram vinyl package will follow.
The footage was scanned in high-def 4K and the audio restored from the original analogue tapes at Abbey Road Studios by Giles Martin.
McCartney and Ringo Starr have provided exclusive audio commentary and filmed introductions respectively.
