The Beatles – It’s For You [Paul McCartney piano demo]

21 July 2016

Yesterday, a previously unknown acetate demo of Paul McCartney singing “It’s For You” was discovered in the late Cilla Black’s archives. The demo was recorded on June 3, 1964 and was given to Cilla, who recorded her version a week later and re-recorded it on June 29th. The re-recorded version hit #7 on the UK charts that summer. This demo version has thus far only leaked as a short excerpt in rough sound quality, which I’ve cleaned up and given an appropriate photo montage. Enjoy!

Paul McCartney had written that song jointly with John Lennon.
