After writing up the Beatles in Atlantis narrative, and the followup unCaptiol tale, we have finally arrived at Library Industries' very own standardized final faux fab discography. No narrative, no alternate universe, no end times narrowly averted nor met head-on— though that may await us any moment, as ever. Just the playlists. Mono & stereo editions pulling tracks as indicated in notes below cover art; reference mark for footnote on mono source appears before song title, stereo reference mark after song title.

Just like there's no dedicated mono mix of a Get Back LP nor Let It Be nor Let It Be… Naked in the real world Beatles discography, there's no dedicated mono Abbey Road LP. And thusly here, just as Let Back gets a differently titled secondary collection in lieu of a mono edition, so doth Abbey Road. Unlike the Get Back sessions, though, there ain't an abundance of extra takes to choose from. Here we enjoy alternate performances, not up to the perfection of the final LP, through when the Sun comes; then for Because and the medley finale, alternate mixes. Notably the medley is the rough "Long One" mix, here with an exclusive Library Industries twist: it concludes instead with The End remix from Anthology 3.— without further ado, the very work-in-progress feel of…—

70} Let's At Sea
From the Beatles In Atlantis discography it's the setlist for the Beatles' underwater reunion benefit concert, a plea for peaceful relations between the surface world and Atlantis. Accompanied by Preston, in December 1970 the band — together again for first and only time since their breakup earlier in the year — perform current songs from their solo careers, none of which had yet been heard by the Atlanteans. The resultant live recording double LP Let's At Sea would be The Beatles' final entry in their unique Atlantis discography.
