In addition to Jackie Lomax, the single features George Harrison and Eric Clapton on guitars, Paul McCartney on bass, Ringo Starr on drums, and Nicky Hopkins on piano The song is notable for being among the few non-Beatles songs to feature at least three members of the band. wow

At any given time on any given day, someone somewhere is arguing about the Beatles...

This is one of my favorite songs. Read what the real hidden messages in beatles song were. google truth contest and click on The Present and go to the beatles section.

@tomwantshelp - YouTube doesn't allow for lots of character space -- though they are more generous than most. I would add McCartney's "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" to that list of Beatle-like songs he did solo. But, with the possibility of Lennon giving him some shit about it. I doubt The Beatles would have done "Jet" and many of those Band On the Run tracks. It just doesn't sound...Beatles to me -- as a band effort. (Just an opinion).

@tomwantshelp - That makes sense. I remember that era when George walked out on those sessions. I liked all four Beatles -- but I believe George came closest to a true Beatle sound on some of his solo tracks. With Paul, to my ears -- only "Maybe I'm Amazed," "Everynight," and "No More Lonely Nights," ever sounded Beatlesque to me. Until -- he created "Dance Tonight," that was clever -- but it seemed like an "answer" to George's "I Got My Mind Set On You" video. Do you agree?

@lastrada52 They wouldn't have got rid of BOTH of them, only one. When George left during the Get Back sessions, John proposed making Clapton a Beatle if he didn't return in a few days. It was also proposed that the other three would abandon Paul and form a band with Klaus on bass.

In any case, the Beatle name would mean nothing without Lennon (it could have withstood George leaving, maybe they could have credibly continued without Paul) because it was his band.

[lastrada52]

@tomwantshelp - Do you think the The Beatle name would have meant anything if 2 -- Paul & George were booted? What you say is feasible. But I don't think the logic came from Lennon. Maybe a "management" decision. On paper = great. Reality = a disaster. The Beatles were "magic" together. Not even Ringo could have been replaced. Van Halen could replace David Lee Roth & The Who "could" replace Keith Moon. But not The Beatles. Each one "was" a "Beatle." It's too bad it had to happen.

[tomwantshelp]

@lastrada52 No, John would never have been booted out. Paul and George were both nearly replaced (by Klaus and Eric Clapton respectively) because they couldn't get on with each other. It would make no sense for them to decide they were going to try it without John, because the problem was Paul. Also, they needed John's songwriting abilities.

Wtf? Just checking Apple's artists and decided listening to the first one I saw. good shit indeed

[lastrada52]

Actually, this really could be: The Beatles -- featuring a "new" singer Jackie Lomax. Recorded around the time of the "White Album?" When things were grim. Could it be the other Beatles were "auditioning" Lomax as a possible Lennon replacement? I'm just asking the question. By the way, Ringo's drums are brilliant, as is Nicky Hopkins' piano. This is a lost killer "Beatles" track -- with a hat tip to Jackie Lomax. I think he did a fine job. Take Lennon's place? Mmm not sure.

George and Paul both produced different tracks on the first non Beatle - Apple release
