Hi All

Found a link about behind the history of the Lyrics and how the song was completed.

Would anyone know if any of the early versions ever leaked out ????

Thanks

Apart from the version with George on vocals, I don't think so. On George's version the "Hare Krishna" in much more pronounced, in fact until I heard it I hadn't even realised it was in the original track. The article is wrong, by the way, since It Don't Come Easy was not on the "Ringo" album.

As i recall , there was a Mini-Cd with the Regular Released Version by Ringo and Two different Mixes of the song . I'm 99% sure i still have them on cassette tape . I will check this out later this week . And again , i'm 99% sure Sulpy or Belmo's Beatleg Magazine both had reviews this Mini-CD .

I found my cassette's track list. 1 don't come easy backing track from George's Demo . 2 don't come easy with piano overdub . 3 it don't come easy but NO Piano . I'm assuming trax 2+3 are from that mini-cd that i mentioned above in my other post . the backing track mite be mine using X-Minus Pro Site or i used the old method of cross-wiring the speaker wires . have not played the tape in a long time .

Errata: The singles chart in Billboard has been the "Hot 100" since 1958. The lp chart is the "Billboard 200".
