Remarks
George is on lead and acoustic guitar and backing vocals. Estimated recording date is known to be over sessions from Nov. 19-25, 1980. This differing mix comes from the Canadian promo single. While it is from the same take, the bass is not mixed so low (you can actually hear the fuzziness in it in certain passages and it almost sounds like a tuba) and unlike the finalized mix, the ending drumbeat is not faded down low. George's guitar has an extra untrimmed riff. Also appears as track 17 on the bootleg CD Ringo Tour Songs 1995 (where the count-in and take announcement are heard) also in this collection. Estimated release date assumed to be the same as the US commercial single.
