The song “I’m in Love” is attributed to Lennon–McCartney. John Lennon may have written it himself. He gave the song to the Fourmost, another band from Liverpool, who recorded it in 1963 with George Martin as the producer. Lennon claimed that he wrote the song for them in 1971, but he was not sure about it in 1980. Paul McCartney’s biographer, Barry Miles, suggested that the song was a joint work by Lennon and McCartney . Billy J. Kramer also made a recording of the song, but the Fourmost’s version was released and reached number 17 in the UK charts.
The Beatles never recorded the song - until now. Using the latest techniques, it is possible to upgrade Lennon's demo (on piano) to a full song. Wouldn't it have fitted nicely on Beatles for Sale, With The Beatles?
