Two sessions were held in the control room of Studio Two from 2.30-6pm, 10 stereo mixes of Come Together were made, with John Lennon's vocals treated with artificial double-tracking during the choruses.
John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison assembled in Studio Three from 2:30 to 5:30 for the recording of the guitar solos on The End.
According to Geoff Emerick, the idea for the guitar solos was very spontaneous and everybody said, 'Yes! Definitely' – well, except for George, who was a little apprehensive at first. But he saw how excited John and Paul were so he went along with it. Truthfully, I think they rather liked the idea of playing together, not really trying to outdo one another per se, but engaging in some real musical bonding. Yoko was about to go into the studio with John – this was commonplace by now – and he actually told her, 'No, not now. Let me just do this. It'll just take a minute.' That surprised me a bit. Maybe he felt like he was returning to his roots with the boys – who knows? The order was Paul first, then George, then John, and they went back and forth. They ran down their ideas a few times and before you knew it, they were ready to go. Their amps were lined up together and we recorded their parts on one track. You could really see the joy in their faces as they played; it was like they were teenagers again. One take was all we needed. The musical telepathy between them was mind-boggling.
