Bobby Keys was beloved by the Beatles as well as the Stones. He worked on George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass as well as on this, Lennon’s only US No 1 during his lifetime. This is funky Keys: he crops up repeatedly through the song, but the 15 seconds he gets at the intro are the crucial part: in that brief burst of horn he gets to set the song in motion. Get it wrong and he kills the song dead. But Bobby Keys rarely got things wrong on record. His closeness to Lennon was not just musical: he was one of the players in Lennon’s “lost weekend” in Los Angeles, from 1973 to 1975, along with Ringo Starr, Harry Nilsson and Keith Moon.
