The Palace of the King of the Birds

"The Palace of the King of the Birds" is an instrumental by the English rock band the Beatles. It was written by Paul McCartney and was originally recorded by the band during the "Let It Be" album sessions in three takes between 6-9 January, 1969 at Twickenham Film Studios. The track is five minutes, four seconds long (the 6 January session is fourteen minutes one second long and turned into a loose jam), and was recorded with the demo of "Carry That Weight". The track was later forgotten, until McCartney recorded a still unreleased version, in his solo recordings, named "Castle of the King of the Birds", for the unreleased album "Rupert the Bear", sometime in 1978, with Wings with a duration of 1:42.
