NOTES

1. recorded in a higher key and features the verses in a different order
2. features a double-tracked vocal, no break, natural bird sounds and a slightly slower pace than the studio version
3. this early version is significantly shorter lacking the opening and closing verses
4. lacks the final verse "show me round your snow peaked mountains"
5. this version also appeared on Anthology 3 in excellent stereo but missing the final verse
6. lacks the picked intro of the finished version
7. Paul occasionally loses time when he double tracked his vocal but this an otherwise spirited take. Not surprisingly this version is closer in feel to the Sessions version than the finished take
8. appeared on Anthology 3 in stereo but lacking some guitar bits and vocals heard here
9. John lets out a "whoops!" as he flubs his double track vocal and finishes with a spoken outro
10. features an undeveloped ending
11. lacks the "cry baby cry" intro and has a different ending
12. earliest incarnation of "Jealous Guy" - an early highlight of the Lost Lennon tapes radio series
13. animal noises courtesy of the other Beatles
14. with an extra spoken passage: "when I hold you in your arms"
15. some early lyrics of note here: John is only "insecure" here an not "suicidal" like Dylan's Mr. Jones
16. lyrically the same but otherwise completely different in feel
17. what's noteworthy is that there's a demo for this song at all
18. lacks the "you say you'll change the constitution" verse
19. features alternate early lyrics
20. George dug this one up 14 years later for his Gone Troppo LP
21. George gave this to Jackie Lomax to record for one of Apple's first releases
22. George only waited 11 years to get back to this one on his George Harrison LP
23. piggies "cut their porkchops" instead of "eat their bacon" here
