At the end of the original Sgt. Pepper album, in the little groove that runs to the spindle, was a little nonsense noise. If you played it back it said something, I don't remember what. At the end of "I'm so Tired" was a little bit of backwards John mumbling, that if you played backwards said "Paul's dead and I miss 'im". I don't think there were any such clues on the Abbey Road album, other than the cover picture which depicted Paul walking across the street barefoot, supposedly some kind of sign of the dead. - Bob Perez "John Gwynn" <john....@tfn.com> wrote in message news:GyI96.2543$tD2.182074@newsread1.prod.itd.earthlink.net... > Playing Abbey Road backwards was supposed to bring back Paul from the dead?? > > or was that Sgt Pepper's???? > > > "Htn963" <htn...@cs.com> wrote in message > news:20010118025359.08322.00002460@ng-cd1.news.cs.com... > > For some reason, while washing the dishes, I thought of the undead > settler > > hoax in Master of Magic and was chuckling.
