This Apple Jam EP showcases "Help Me to Help Myself," an unfinished John Lennon song, and "On the Wings of a Nightingale," a Paul McCartney song he never released. The two songs are performed in multiple Beatle period styles between 1964 to 1971. Alan White (Yes) has lent his legendary drumming talents to the project. Proceeds from the EP are being shared with Seattle Anesthesia Outreach to improve hospital care in Ethiopia. listen to sample tracks
OFF THE BEATLE TRACK (CD) 2009
Apple Jam's debut CD showcases 15 songs the Beatles composed in the early sixties, but never released as a working band. Apple Jam has embodied each track with an authentic Beatles sound, as if the Liverpool songwriters had released these songs themselves. "We used the same microphones, gear, and studio techniques of the period. Our goal was to make the album sound just like an early Beatles record, between WITH THE BEATLES and A HARD DAY'S NIGHT", says founding member Rick Lovrovich. listen to sample tracks
"Apple Jam's stellar performances of these songs make Off the Beatle Track sound like a long-lost Fab Four album" (★★★★1/2) - Goldmine
