Act Two Scene Two Rolls 19-A + 53-B

This roll features a discussion of "Smell-O-Vision" (it actually existed), performances of classic folk and blues songs, a 1950's funky classic, a pioneering Motown hit (the first hit for Barry Gordy's Tamla record label), fragments of two different "drinking songs" (one with an extremely x-rated verse), improvizations, a song which later appeared on "Abbey Road", and lastly a song which later appeared on John's "Imagine" LP.

After all of this, the band at last begins rehearsals on George's first candidate song: "All Things Must Pass".
