This track is one of those near-misses for me.. i love the soundiness of this track.. even if the content is a little lacking and i have always argued if i heard a track like this come out today i would flip out. it's got a cool feel to it especially the intro.

its in my top 10 favourite beatles tracks.

when the organ comes in at the start it really draws you in. this track would be an amazing start to an album or the start of a medly.. i would have used it in LOVE for sure.. you know more than they did..

yeah it was basically just thrown on love to show it was one of georges tracks at the end of something.

i just really love its cool hypnotic groove similiar to tommorow never knows but more subdued, always have loved songs that play over and over the same thing but build and build.

I agree. It's great when it turns up in the middle of the night.

I really think it could have been a major highlight on Love

Sorry to spoil the party, but Blue Jay Way has never ever done the trick for me.

BOBBER NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's a nice track but not an ultimate favourite of mine. maybe the most oddest track
George ever wrote. i do like the scene a lot in MMT though.

This song creeps me out. It's cool sounding, but the lyrics are just scary for me.

"Sitting here in Blue Jay Way" - where's "here"?
and who are those friends?

What's the story behind this song...?

IIRC, George was sitting up late one night in LA waiting for his friends, I believe Derek Taylor and his wife, to arrive from the airport. And there was some sort of keyboard instrument lying about (help!), and George starting messing about on it to keep himself awake. I can't recall where I read the original story, sorry!

he was tripping on lsd....

Me neither. I always get the feeling that George tried to hard to be psychedelic with this one if you know what I mean. Strained in another words.

like yer food...you backstage....
