(16,902 posts)I knew Harrison produced and helped to write the song, but I don't know that I've heard a version of just him. The backing track sounds exactly the same as Ringo's. Anyone know where this came from or if it's a mix of versions?
Edit to add: After doing some digging, it looks like Harrison recorded a demo track and this it the track, but I can't find an official release. The "Hare Krishna" that can be heard readily in the demo, can still be heard on Ringo's version, it's just turned way down in the mix

I like George's version.
