Shakin' in the Sixties is a 1969 John Lennon composition that was also recorded with John as lead vocalist during the Get Back sessions in January, but it was never released. It was never really finished. This song has not been included in any official compilation either, though at least one bootleg with Yoko Ono's voice on it is in circulation. Students of the Beatles consider Shakin' in the Sixties to be an improvisation, a string of a couple of spontaneous jams that occurred in down moments during the recording session designed to bring the band back together in January of 1969. Shakin' in the Sixties appears to have little or no musical structure and somewhat random, impromptu lyrics. The longest fragment goes on for about 2 minutes.
