Behind That Locked Door is the only song classified as country on this album while the other acoustic numbers fall into folk rock (according to all their pages)...why is country and western listed as one of this album's genres? Jackbel ( talk) 09:25, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Something is wrong with how li value is working because it is putting the extra line in. I have seen this elsewhere. Kevinskogg ( talk) 21:38, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
The issue of songwriting credits for Apple Jam has frustrated me for years, and in fact they're only included under Track listing => 2001 remaster in the article because, from memory, another editor wanted them added, back in about 2013. When pulling together material for a spin-off article on the "free" disc a couple of weeks ago, I searched the BMI database, here, and only got results for two of the four jam tracks: they showed Harrison as the sole composer and Harrisongs as the sole publishing organisation. Now, unfortunately, I'm getting no results at all for any of the four tracks (Out of the Blue; I Remember Jeep; Plug Me In; Thanks for the Pepperoni) at the same database. The fifth track on the disc, "It's Johnny's Birthday", does appear. Perhaps someone who's a little more patient than me with these BMI, RIAA, etc database searches might have more success, and/or confirm what I found two weeks ago.
As mentioned, I was never convinced that the performers on the five selections are credited as writers. Note 31 in the article explains the situation, which boils down to academic Ian Inglis listing the musicians as composers, and Harrison biographer Simon Leng continuing to list only Harrison (apart from, for "It's Johnny's Birthday", the amended Martin, Coulter, Harrison credit from December 1970). What isn't explained in note 31 is the 2001 reissue booklet states that all compositions on the album are written by George Harrison, except "I'd Have You Anytime" (Harrison, Dylan), "If Not for You" (Dylan), and "It's Johnny's Birthday". Also per the 2001 booklet, all compositions are published by Harrisongs alone except for those same three tracks.
Given this, and what I found at bmi.com two weeks ago, I'm going to remove the writing credits in the 2001 track list. I think Inglis has misinterpreted the inclusion of the musicians' names with the Apple Jam tracks as being composer credits. In fact, the names were always there on the Jam disc sleeve as a list of performers.
If anyone wants to weigh in on this, please do. The issue's doubly confusing because in the US originally, the side five and six labels carried no songwriting details at all (just "BMI"), not even a producer's credit; so it's as if Inglis is reading the '01 packaging treatment as some sort of new development in terms of attributing authorship. Leng does not, and Leng's far more of an authority on Harrison's career than Ian Inglis. And there's still that overriding statement in the reissue booklet, anyway, that all songs are Harrison-composed and Harrisongs-published, save for the two involving Dylan and "It's Johnny's Birthday".

I take your point JG66, but Nicky appears in the official release of the 50th anniversary album, so why shouldn't he be listed as one of the musicians on the album? Johnalexwood ( talk) 12:56, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
OK. So maybe the 50th anniversary edition deserves its own wiki entry? Here's the animation Dhani released with the version of Isn't It A Pity from the album, with Nicky on piano: [1] Johnalexwood ( talk) 08:41, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
