The Making Of "Strawberry Fields" Part 1

Continuing with The Beatles track dissections from last week, here's part 1 of a great look at how the song Strawberry Fields came together. This is part of an excellent documentary done by the BBC. What I like best about this is:

1) to hear slivers of John Lennon's early demos of the song.

2) Producer Sir George Martin's explanation of how two versions of the song were cut together even though they were in different keys with different tempos.
