Beatles: Song featuring George Harrison and Ringo Starr found – BBC News
A previously unheard song featuring two of The Beatles at the height of their fame has been given its world premiere after being rediscovered in a loft.
The song, Radhe Shaam, was written and produced by broadcaster Suresh Joshi in 1968 and features Ringo Starr on drums and George Harrison on guitar.
It was unearthed at the 75-year-old’s Birmingham home by a friend who was checking on him during lockdown.
The track was played to 100 people at Liverpool Beatles Museum earlier.
Mr Joshi, who was friends with George Harrison, was the one who introduced him to India’s celebrated musician Ravi Shankar who was a big influence on the star and famously taught him to play the sitar.
He was working on the music for a documentary film, called East meets West, at the Trident Studios in Soho, London, when Harrison and Beatles bandmate Ringo Starr turned up and offered to play.
