MSX-1 Beatles FM-Music demo

After I posted "Fan Of The Beatles" I remembered that EMP-Soft  (which I was a member of) released a small Beatles FM-Music demo, completly made in MSX-1 Basic, but the music was made MSX-Music not MSX-PSG.
In this demo all music was made by Elko Duijm and all gfx by me.But to make the music more interesting I changed sometimes the solo instrument during the songs.
Why MSX-1 ?
I just wanna proof that MSX-Music or FM-Music wasn't only MSX-2(+) or higher, it runs fine on every MSX-1, but nobody made any MSX-1 software.
If you dont believe me, check out the menu program in the original FM-Pac, its made in MSX-1 colors...

About the music, you can hear some small mistakes in timing, but some arrangements are 
very fresh, like Blackbird, Eleanor Rigby and Michelle. The music was arranged and converted 
to FM-Basic in SynthSaurus 2.0, so that why the drums seems a bit monotone.

I made a program to generate weird FM-sounds and because the screen took some time
to be generated I added these FM-sounds during the waiting, still fun/annoying to hear...

PS there is a hidden song in the demo, but that one will be easy to find...


I uploaded the demo in LZH and ZIP, cause LZH is more used in the MSX-world, and ZIP is more common in the PC-world.
Hope you enjoy this little demo, I had to create 3 parts, otherwise all songs didnt fit in a single MSX-Basic program...
