I didn't like the voice joining John during the Nothing's gonna change my wolrd parts (reminds me of Yoko's voice on bungaloo bill)... but the background harmonies are great...
In my name and Gayleen's, I would like to thank everyone who enjoyed our backing vocals on this track. It was a truly amazing experience to record with all 4 Bealtes and George Martin at EMI Studios. All the best from Rio de Janeiro!
Once upon a time there was a man who believed all you need is love. this man imagined all the people living life in peace he said " it’s easy if you try " this man is gone now but people still hear his message and think one day the world will live as one and one day this idea will spread across the universe and through the strawberry fields forever! Happy birthday John we miss you
This is my absolute fav Beatle's song & the best version. I have the track on vinyl EP - the Ballads album - but as I no longer have a turntable I've not heard it in over a decade. Thanks very much for the post.
A better version than what you hear on Let it Be. The song is sung more in the moment of it's creation, than years later during Let it Be recordings. It has a lighter sound, not so slow and retrospective.
Speeded up from the Let it Be version, but, nonetheless, my favorite. Backup vocals are awesome!!! Paul was the best musician, but Lennon will always be special to me because of his heart felt vocal work. None will ever compare!
i have been searching for this version...i love it, evfen more so than the one which qwas released on let it be or let it be naked...it is a great version...love the harmonies by george and paul and even enjoy Lizzie Bravo and Gayleen Pease, two of the so-called Apple scruffs (the female fans who collected outside the studio) harmonizing during the chorus
I don't think this is the original, I think this is a special version that was made specifically for a wildlife benefit. But I am not 100% sure. Regardless, it is a beautiful song.
@iamthesecondwalrus Allow me to add my thanks for the upload. Phil Spector completely spoiled and overengineered the album version. Specifically this version, is my favourite of all Beatles songs.
Love the backup vocals and wah wah pedal.

@admiralbastard is not the Yoko's voice, they are two fans....search the names "Lizzie Bravo and Pease"

A wonderful timeless version - with a soft, sentimental feeling-miles better than the "Let it Be"- version
