this masterpiece, surprisingly enough is unreleased. it was recorded for "One Hand
Clapping", the unreleased documentary about PM & Wings and it was recorded in 1974 in
demo form for Frank Sinatra. A short version was also recorded during the "Get Back"
sessions. A snippet is availible on "McCartney" under the title "Glasses" and a version
is availible on the unreleased DVD and on the bootleg album "Good Times Comin'" did i
miss anything? anyway...
