Paul McCartney has confirmed that the mythical Beatles song ‘Carnival Of Light’ exists, and has suggested it may see release.
The experimental 14-minute song was recorded in 1967 for an electronic music festival but was never released.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4‘s Front Row, McCartney said: "The time has come for it to get its moment.
"I like it because it’s The Beatles free, going off piste. I said all I want you to do is just wander around all the stuff, bang it, shout, play it, it doesn’t need to make any sense. Hit a drum then wander on to the piano, hit a few notes, just wander around. So that’s what we did and then put a bit of an echo on it. It’s very free."
According to BBC News, McCartney pushed for the song to be included on The Beatles‘ Anthology releases but it was vetoed by the rest of the band.
