Rolling Stone today premiered the first track available from this set, a previously unheard version of the classic George Harrison song, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps (https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/beatles-while-my-guitar-gently-weeps-739393/?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=f2286f1d8c-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_10_18_02_00&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-f2286f1d8c-145367789) .” Enjoy.
