He sang the double - tracked lead vocal and played all the instruments : he sang and played piano on the first take , sang again and played maracas on the first overdub , drums came third and bass guitar was added last . It took less than an hour to finish . The biggest differences are a slower tempo and slightly higher key on McCartney 's demo and the use of three - part harmonies on Badfinger 's single . Though McCartney was the only Beatle performing on the track , it was officially released as a Beatles song on the 1996 Anthology 3 compilation album after appearing on various bootlegs . In his book Revolution in the Head , Ian MacDonald described it as `` by far the best unreleased Beatles recording '' . Badfinger version ( edit ) On 2 August 1969 , McCartney presented his demo to Apple band Badfinger ( then called the Iveys ) telling them , `` Okay , it 's got to be exactly like this demo . '' His `` carrot '' for the band was his offer to produce this song and two other Iveys ' originals for the movie The Magic Christian , since he had a contract to supply three songs for it . The band followed his instructions . McCartney auditioned each of the four Iveys to sing lead on `` Come and Get It '' . Ultimately , he picked fellow Liverpudlian Tom Evans over the three Welshmen , Pete Ham , Ron Griffiths , and Mike Gibbins . The single was released on Apple Records on 5 December 1969 in the UK , but not until 12 January 1970 in the US . `` Come and Get It '' was a hit single for the band , peaking at number 7 in the United States , and number 4 in the United Kingdom . It was the opening theme for the film The Magic Christian , starring Peter Sellers and Ringo Starr ( it was also repeated during the movie 's closing credits , with an additional string arrangement added ) . The UK picture sleeve for the single shows a kaleidoscopic montage of all four members of Badfinger that appear on the song , although bassist Ron Griffiths left the band before the single was released . In 1978 a re-formed version of Badfinger re-recorded `` Come and Get It '' for K - tel Records , with Evans again singing lead . This served to provide a demo recording to give to Elektra Records , and resulted in the Airwaves album in 1979 .
