Powerful musical bookends to The Beatlesโ€™ recorded canon, both songs are also featured in the expanded 2023 Editions for 1962-1966 (โ€˜The Red Albumโ€™) and 1967-1970 (โ€˜The Blue Albumโ€™). โ€œNow And Thenโ€ is the last Beatles song, written and demoed by John Lennon in the mid/late 1970s. With Johnโ€™s voice now pristine in the mix, โ€œNow And Thenโ€ features elements from the 1995 sessions including George Harrisonโ€™s guitar parts, and vocal and instrumental parts recorded by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr in 2022, along with a new arrangement for strings. Produced by Paul and Giles Martin, โ€œNow And Thenโ€ is the last song recorded by all four Beatles, a powerful and fitting finale for the bandโ€™s timeless recordings.
