Publishing Agreement Signed By John Lennon
Here is a publishing agreement is for John’s composition “Good Night”, which was written by him as a lullaby for his son Julian, and given to Ringo to sing on “The White Album” as the double album’s closing song. This agreement spells out the terms that were in effect between Maclen(Music)Ltd. (John and Paul’s songwriting partnership) and Northern Songs Ltd. (Dick James’ publishing company), with 6/12’s (or half) going to each party. John has signed this document, which is dated 15th October 1968, beautifully in black felt tip pen. While there is a space for the signatures of Paul McCartney and also a Director of Northern Songs, the only signatories on this (and all similar “White Album” publishing agreements which have surfaced) are John Lennon and Neil Aspinal, as a Director Maclen (Music) Ltd.
