Beautiful track from George with a great wall-of-sound production to it. I had most of this track recorded in January, and thankfully Beatles Fest was right around the corner on this site for me to finally get it finished. Started recording on Bandlab, just getting the basic keys down until it became a bit glitchy so I ended up putting it on the good old BR 1200. This was probably my first time trying to record using the electric drum kit and I think it turned out decently for that. I slavered this in ridiculous amounts of reverb so bare with me here...enjoy...

for me this is like a combination of David Gilmour and Roger Waters singing a George Harrison song....this is another incredible recording Mr. Berry.... I like the reverb on here...and the backing vocals are like totally WOWWEE!!!
the piano reminds me of a great Supertramp extravaganza...

I think this is just totally fantastic and professional...well done...I suppose that I never heard a George Harrison song I didn't like...I will admit I never heard that many except the ones played on the radio. 
love the guitar work or here...omgosh...that is so good..the feel and the execution is special

George's best song, IMO. You've covered it lovingly and with huge talent. Everything sounds perfectly balanced and considered. Wonderful tone on the solo especially, and the harmonies & layered backing vocals are gorgeous. The reverb definitely works. Fab stuff!

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

Beautiful job on this, Keith. I agree, it's one of George's best songs, and you paid nice attention to the details.

Loving the layering of the sounds, think the reverb ties it together. Also agree that it has a bit of a Gilmour/Waters hint about it. Great work.
