2.Untitled song

3.Mado wo Akete(Open the window.)
The tune of the irresponsible melody for the irresponsible words of 'If you become lonely,
open your window.etc.'.
When the band was lodging together at Nasu highland for a new album, it seems that they
composed these pieces of music.

2.In Held 'Twas In I
Have you heard the original tune of Procol Huram?
The original is the tune of the suite style which consists of 5 parts which were recorded
for the album called 'Shines on Brightly' in 1968. They played this 18-minute tune with
reproduced SE perfectly.

3.P.S. I Love You
Of course, this is a debut song of The Beatles.
They played this song at the end of the concert.
The father of their drummer, Daiji Okai played percussion together.
The sound was quite rough, but this is a famous attraction.
