Description
A T-Shirt showcasing the time in minutes and seconds of the iconic Abbey Road track, Come Together.
Come Together was written by John Lennon, recorded on 21 July 1969 and was the first track of the Abbey Road album. Inspired by Timothy Leary’s campaign for Governorship of California, John Lennon brought the song to the Abbey Road studios after the campaign ended.
“The thing was created in the studio. It’s gobbledygook; Come Together was an expression that Leary had come up with for his attempt at being president or whatever he wanted to be, and he asked me to write a campaign song. I tried and tried, but I couldn’t come up with one. But I came up with this, Come Together, which would’ve been no good to him – you couldn’t have a campaign song like that, right?
“It was a funky record – it’s one of my favourite Beatle tracks, or, one of my favourite Lennon tracks, let’s say that. It’s funky, it’s bluesy, and I’m singing it pretty well. I like the sound of the record. You can dance to it. I’d buy it!” – John Lennon.
Part of the 4’20” Come Together Collection developed in collaboration between Abbey Road Studios and The Beatles, also including a Cross Body Bag and a Bucket Hat.
