recorded in a higher key and features the verses in a different
order

2. Blackbird (Lennon/McCartney) 2:37
features a double-tracked vocal, no break, natural bird
sounds and a slightly slower pace than the studio version

3. Rocky Raccoon (Lennon/McCartney) 2:53
this early version is significantly shorter lacking the opening
and closing verses

lacks the picked intro of the finished version

7. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da (Lennon/McCartney) 3:18
Paul occasionally loses time when he double tracked his
vocal but this an otherwise spirited take. Not surprisingly
this version is closer in feel to the Sessions version than the
finished take

an not "suicidal" like Dylan's Mr. Jones

And My Monkey
(Lennon/McCartney) 2:59
lyrically the same but otherwise completely different in feel

17. What's The New Mary Jane (Lennon/McCartney) 2:40
what's noteworthy is that there's a demo for this song at all
