[1] A different recording of the song was later released on the John Lennon Anthology and the compilation album Acoustic.
It was built from a finger-picking technique that Lennon used on The Beatles songs such as "Dear Prudence", "Happiness Is a Warm Gun" and "Julia", all of which appear on The White Album.
[1] Lennon learned this finger-picking guitar style (known as Travis-picking) from the Scottish musician Donovan, who was with The Beatles at the time at Rishikesh, India.
[2] Recorded at EMI Studios on 7 October 1970,[3] the album version of "Look at Me" features double-tracked vocals by Lennon.
