Clearly this evolved into Hear Me Lord, which is a better developed use of the base melody therefore the pick for the album...but there is still a particular late night jazzy charm to this one...George recorded a couple of Tin Pan Alley covers in the 80s...those augmented and diminished changes didn't come from nowhere...
@CurtisMateer. yep. Harrison had a nice vocab drawing on Tin Pan and jazz. Learning How to Love You is a pretty cool progression....and he did a nice, jazzy guitar solo on it too. This one's a nice jam. Cool stuff.
In his book "I Me Mine" George writes that he tried to record this song several times, but it's a little bit unclear if he ever seriously considered recording his own version. He mentions versions by Ronnie Spector, Cilla Black and Leon Russell. Cilla's version eventually surfaced on a compilation album in 2003. And then there's Ringo's version...
Words cannot describe how truly amazing this song is. Something about the audio being sort of raspy just adds a really raw and beautiful touch to it. Beautiful song from a beautiful man.
The woman at 1:50 is Lori Del Santo. She was the mother of Connor (Eric Clapton's son). It was rumored that she and George had an affair to get back at Eric during his tour of Japan with Eric. Boys!
@selmeeka I have no idea about the validity of the story, but that photo has clearly been doctored. It's very obvious the two figures are from two separate images!
Hey Beatleboybob, you are a true Harrison fan!!! Great "unknown" tune by George, eh? Please check out and comment on my reworking of George's demo of "Window Window". I tried to do him justice adding two acoustics, drums, bass, three electrics, strings, piano, and organ in my home studio (kinda my personal Free As A Bird). Love ya George!!
I Guess we will never know, i would loved to have heard a propper version, maybe one day we will, because, i made this "mix" out of take 49 [ i think], so there are more in exsistance. so, prehaps, there will be a GH antholigy one day
@DerekBayRoberts1 It's the same chords as 'Here Me Lord' which is probably what it eventually became. 'Here Me Lord' is a much better tune, it actually goes somewhere, which is probably why this wasn't released.
@DerekBayRoberts1 I think because of Ringo's organum better for this song. Maybe I am wrong...excuse me please but I think so that that's why George gave it to Ringo.
thank you for posting this song,which i never heard before.but i have one question:why you put the photo of george with lory del santo,which is clearly false)i had seen the real photo,and i know that THIS is false.sorry for the question,but i hate the shit that came from lory del santo...and sorry for my approssimatively english.i'm italian.so,great,great george.i will always love you...
The only reason that the pic is up hereis because it has george on it, i didnt realise it was a fake, but now you point it out it seems obvious. thanks
I am not so sure about that one: it IS George's voice. But some parts of the music sounds as if it is pasted onto the whole thing, there is something strange about this????? Beatleboybob! what do think? thanks Andreas ,
Well spotted, i cut it up, to make the song sound more complete, if you know the propper version, you will know why i done this, but it is all part from the same song
No, it's not me, they are all on the song, sorry, but prehaps that would have been a good idea, if i could have isolated the vocals, or at the very least the vocals, bass and trumpets. Maybe when i get bored in the future i'll jam with George, or John, or Paul, Or even Ringo, ha ha, or Brian Wilson, he has loads of demos, thanks
Even Ringo's vocals on the Rotogravure version seem to be faded, deep and echoed. Whats the word im looking for? Ig George recorded this during the ATMP sessions, this may have been a Beatle era song. Who knows?
Imagine this on Abbey Road or even The White Album, i like most of Phil Spector's work but perhaps George Martin would have handled it better, as he was a more technical producer, whereas Spector usually drowned the song in reverb if he couldn't get the sound.

The reason he gave it to Ringo was they were trying to duplicate the Beatle contribution to Ringo's Rotogurve LP like what was on his Ringo LP.
