Thanks for the correction Cheers!! Phil Kenzie. Incidentally these were my first call guys and played on all the major brass on George Harrisons ” All Things Must Pass” Beatles ” Let It Be ” and Paul McCartney & Wings ,,,, ” Jet”

Back in 1970 I booked the horn guys head arranged the parts and played the sax solo on George Harrisons ” ALL THINGS MUST PASS” ALBUM” ( BOBBY KEYS AND JIM PRICE GOT CREDITED even though they only played on one throw away studio blues jam on the forgettable 3rd album of the set, and NEVER with the REAL horn guys.) In 1971 Mal Evans called me to put 3 sax guys together for the OZ record. He picked us up in Georges Mercedes and drove us out to John’s house in Ascot where we spent a great evening cutting the tracks with John and Yoko. Bobby Keys was not there. This the second time Bobby Keys is getting credited for work done by me and I’m getting very pissed off about it. Yours please correct

On the compilation CD Come And Get It (The Best Of Apple Records) it is listed as “God Save Us.” I s’pose that clinches it. Someone goofed somewhere.
