Remarks
Recorded live in the studio (no tracking or overdubs) with Billy Preston on keyboards. Unlike the 45 version, John's parody lyrics from a session the previous day ("Sweet Loretta Fart, she thought she was a cleaner but she was a frying pan") are heard at the introduction and instead of the coda/fade-out ending, it ends with applause and John's closing statement "I'd like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves. I hope we passed the audition." This was taken off the recording of the rooftop concert on Jan. 30, 1969. The main body of the song is the same recording as the 45 despite the notes on Past Masters Vol. 2.
