A Paul McCartney Christmas album from 1965 has surfaced online. The recording was discovered by music site Dangerous Minds. Dangerous Minds also posted an interview with McCartney from 1995 where he discussed the previously unheard recording. “I had two Brenell tape recorders set up at home,” McCartney recalled in 1995, “on which I made experimental recordings and tape loops, like the ones in Tomorrow Never Knows. And once I put together something crazy, something left field, just for the other Beatles, a fun thing which they could play late in the evening. It was just something for the mates, basically.” The 18-and-a-half minute tape features McCartney doing an impression of an American disc jockey, introducing some his favorite records at the time. He plays “Unforgettable” by Nat King Cole, “Someone Ain’t Right” by Peter and Gordon, “I Get Around” by the Beach Boys, “Heat Wave” by Martha and the Vandellas, “Don’t Be Cruel” by Elvis Presley and “Down Home Girl” by the Rolling Stones.
