I never saw this until recently. From the "Rock N' Roll Circus" show the Rolling Stones put on where Lennon played "Yer Blues" with Clapton, Richards, and Mitch Mitchell. I've posted the performance before - here it is:

Anyway here is the photo - I assume from rehearsals - notice Lennon has ripped up the poster that came with the White Album, so he can read the lyrics on the back! Yes, "Yer Blues" lyrics are behind that "blueish" Lennon photo on the poster.

I apologize for my Beatles fanaticism, but Lennon was always notorious for forgetting the words to songs - I think the fact that he tore of the lyrics from his band's own poster and stuck them on the mike stand is cool...

It surely takes an outstanding songwriter to write an outstanding classic blues... Who is that guy who can play lead side by side with an Eric Clapton and stlll sounds good ?
