Very cool alex. All 65-66 songs. Hmmm.. guess he had alot of spare time then to write that out lol. What a great life he had. Just sit around all day and either jam with your friends, write songs or take LSD with your wife who brings home all the bacon.

The funny thinh is that the actual notes, the ones written on the musicpaper is far from the actual recorded ones.
They are all 3 different songs compared to the recorded ones.
Either they are very early drafts or Rothchild may have been more involved in honing the songs.

Jim did not know chords so Ray probably wrote them out for his brothers to follow then John for the demo and later when Robby joined. I doubt Rothchild had a great input into the lyric side but he probaly had more influence on the music side.

if you notice, the pages have holes punched in them that suggest they were kept in some kind of file folder after being torn from a music book ......so I imagine there are a lot more written in Rays hand and maybe even in John or Robbys...we know there are many in Jim's hand....so its sensible to suppose the other two contributed to this process as well .......

 Another example of Ray's handwriting on this cheque for a market bill. He must have needed meat  'You need meat go to the market.....you need bread try the bakery'...............
