EVERY LITTLE THING WE SAID TODAY

RECORDING CHRONOLOGY:

PART SIX : LET IT GET BACK

Order of Data: Date, event or title, takes recorded, lead singer, writer (s), where recorded, unusual facts, instruments played (if other than Paul on bass, George on lead guitar, John on rhythm guitar and Ringo on drums), and release dates. BOLD TYPE = Released to the public in some form, i.e. single, album, CD or "bootleg" (album, CD or tape), regardless if it was a record, filmed concert, or a recorded and/or filmed interview or press conference.  S: = Who sang the lead  W: = Who wrote the song. (I’ve tried to determine who really wrote the song and how much he contributed.  Sometimes I might say “McCartney” alone when the record or CD gives “Lennon/McCartney” credit.  This is based on interviews with the Beatles, etc.)  S = Single  A = Album   Bootleg = Recordings that have not been officially released but can be obtained by the enterprising fan via the "underground", the Internet, etc.
