I like the Beatle version, but I always go back and forth with things like this.
Supposedly their is a version where you can hear John's voice better? Someone showed it to me once, but I can't remember.
Anyways, I think I like the Beatle version better. I am a sucker for some good slide guitar and who is better than George? It also just sounds more complete. You hear it and you know it's 'The Beatles'. I have always thought that on a lot of John's solo songs it felt like something was missing and it wa Paul...vice versa with some of Paul's solo songs. (that is just my opinion)
