McCartney (1970): “Hot as Sun/Glasses”
“A song written in about 1958 or 9 or maybe earlier when it was one of those songs that you play now and then. The middle was added in Morgan Studio where the track was recorded recently.” -McCartney 1970
1 acoustic guitar
2 electric guitar
3 drums
4 rhythm guitar
5 organ
6 maracas
7 bass
8 bongos
A faixa também foi gravada pelos Beatles, em tom jocoso, no meio das sessões do Let it Be.
Instrumental, “Hot as Sun” ainda foi usada nos anos 80 como música-tema do programa The All-New Popeye Hour, safra de desenhos do Popeye feita naquela década. Detalhe: a versão para TV era tocada em 45 RPM – e soava assim:
No finzinho, “Hot as Sun” virava a experimental “Glasses”:
“Wine glasses played at random and overdubbed on top of each other – the end is a section of a song called Suicide – not yet completed.” -McCartney 1970
E, no final, surgia um trecho minúsculo de uma canção que Paul fez aos 14 anos, chamada “Suicide” (já já falo mais dela).
