Come and Get It (song)
Encyclopedia : C : CO : COM : Come and Get It (song)
"Come And Get It" was the name of a song composed by Beatle Paul McCartney for the movie The Magic Christian (which starred fellow Beatle Ringo Starr) and made popular by the group Badfinger.
The song was originally recorded in 1969 during sessions for The Beatles' final recorded album Abbey Road as a demo, with Paul McCartney playing all the instruments and vocals. This demo was presented by McCartney to Badfinger, who made it one of the group's first hits. The Badfinger single was released December 5 1969.
Although the original demo has appeared through the decades on bootlegs, it wasn't until 1996 that it officially appeared on The Beatles Anthology 3 CD. It is credited as a Beatles song since this was issued under The Beatles' name.
