NOTE: 

1981 / WB having rejected his new album "Somewhere In England", Harrison, back at the
drawing board, once again found himself in the recording studio re-touching & composing 4
songs to replace the 4 pulled from the album, This was one of the songs pulled & along 
the other 3, can be found on:

1.George Harrison "Pirate Songs"
2.George Harrison "Completed Rarities Vol. 1
3.George Harrison "Somewhere In England"
( original version and track list w/ bonus tracks )

All which I won on eBay years ago but may now be available in some stores. Can 
also be on "Youtube"
