The Last Beatles Song: "I Me Mine" January 3, 1970

On January 3rd in music history, one significant event took place in 1970 when the Beatles recorded their final song together as a band. The song, titled "I Me Mine," was written by George Harrison and featured in the Beatles' documentary film "Let It Be."

The recording session for "I Me Mine" was held at Abbey Road Studios in London, and it was the last time that all four members of the Beatles - John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr - were together in the studio. The song was recorded in just three takes, with Harrison on lead vocals and acoustic guitar, McCartney on bass, Starr on drums, and Lennon on electric piano.

The lyrics of "I Me Mine" reflect Harrison's growing interest in Eastern philosophy and spirituality, particularly the concept of the ego and the idea that attachment to the self is the root of all suffering. The song's title is a reference to the Hindu concept of the "three gunas," which are the three qualities that make up the material world: sattva (goodness), rajas (passion), and tamas (darkness).

Despite the fact that the Beatles were in the midst of breaking up at the time, the recording session for "I Me Mine" was reportedly a harmonious one. In fact, it was one of the few times during the making of "Let It Be" that the band members seemed to be getting along and enjoying each other's company.

The song was featured in the "Let It Be" film, which documented the making of the album of the same name. The album was released in May 1970, shortly after the Beatles had officially announced their breakup.

In the years since its release, "I Me Mine" has become a beloved track among Beatles fans and a testament to Harrison's growth as a songwriter. It showcases his unique perspective and spiritual outlook, as well as his skill as a guitarist and vocalist.

The recording of "I Me Mine" also marks a bittersweet moment in Beatles history, as it was the last time that the four members of the band worked together in the studio. Despite the tensions and conflicts that led to their breakup, the Beatles remain one of the most influential and iconic bands in the history of music, and their legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians and fans around the world.
