A later take and sounding even more spontaneous, this version of Dylan's song is just one more interesting little artifact. This one even has harmony vocals! Recorded during the Get Back sessions, this was probably just the fab four killing some time and having fun.

Recorded Jan 1969

  • it's lennon in lead guitar, isn't it?

  • good question but it's too difficult to say. it is a little sloppy for george, but it could well be either one.

  • @awaggenspack : I think it's John. It is very sloppy for George, and it doesn't have any of the trills or note bends, holds, or slaps that Harrison was doing at this time (you can hear them on Harrison's actual Let it Be tracks and the leslie - guitar tracks he does on the various jams.

  • @MrAngemystere George had several different playing styles though, like any great lead guitarist, and very rarely used trills or slaps. It is definitely sloppy for him, compared to a polished final studio take, but he was singing and goofing around. I also can't picture George letting John take the lead on a Dylan song.

  • The sound is similar to some of the songs on Let It Be.

  • HOLy shit Beatles & Dylan

  • haha is the fucking real!!!

  • The most important thing, above all else, for the Lennon devotees, is for all Beatle inovation to be attributed to Lennon, and Lennon alone. None of the others existed except Him. To these idiots, Yoko was more important than Paul, George,or Ringo.

  • @starcraft108 exactly! the beatles loved dylans music. george did qite a lot of stuff with dylan; like recording with him and even starting a band with him

  • I love George's shouty voice in this at the end. He was really feeling it. Would have been nice if this progressed past rehearsal and a serious take was done. Alas it wasn't to be.

  • does it matter? its sux anyway

  • @lnnerPeace are you dumb? they're just messing around

  • Love Paul hitting ricks harmony perfectly

  • No dought George singing
