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.
