The recording of Strawberry Fields Forever was a long and experimental process, and it was this process that left the finished track meandering between the keys of A and Bb major. This odd, microtonal key centre is a lasting reminder of the groundbreaking studio engineering that pulled Strawberry Fields Forever out of John Lennon’s head and into reality!

The outro song is my original piece “Clap”, and it’s available right now on Spotify: https://sptfy.com/davidbennett
