Instant Karma, John Lennon or the Beatles??

We all know that Instant Karma is a masterpiece with that great chorus, We All Shine On, Like The Moon And The Stars And The Sun. Is that listed as The Beatles or Lennon, what album and who is playing the drums? If you listen to the track you will hear the drums mixed up front as the lead instrument. Incredible.

Alan White on drums. Not Jim Keltner as the second guy said.
He also appears on the video of the song from the Top of the Pops. 1970. His first hit single after Give peace A chance. Unfortunately recorded too hot. Some distortion the
vocals.

My memory was pretty crappy on this one. It was a long time ago. Great song though, great lyrics.

I remember buying this originally on Apple 45, although it certainly wasn't considered the B-side.

Your right Bob, it was the A side, The B side had Who has seen the Wind, by Yoko.
