*a Lewisohn tells us that 3 of these takes were overdubs, some sources identify these as Takes 5-7 (I have been unable to find any sources to verify)

*b Lewisohn say that the song was finished off with SI of a second George vocal , Claves, Arabain, Bongo and Tambourine, some sources identify these overdubbing to takes 14-19 (I again have no verification)
