Which one of the Beatles died before the release of Somewhere in England in 1981?
All Those Years Ago "All Those Years Ago" is a song by English musician George Harrison, released as a single from his 1981 album "Somewhere in England". Having previously recorded the music for the song, Harrison tailored the lyrics to serve as a personal tribute to his former Beatles bandmate John Lennon, following the latter's murder on 8 December 1980. The recording also includes performances by ex-Beatles Ringo Starr, on drums, and Paul McCartney, who overdubbed backing vocals onto the basic track. Released in May 1981, the single spent three weeks at number 2 on the US "Billboard" Hot 100 (behind Stars on 45's Stars on 45 (Medley)), and peaked at number 13 on the UK Singles Chart. In addition, it topped Canada's "RPM" singles chart and spent one week at number 1 on "Billboard"' s Adult Contemporary listings.
