First released: 1970
Promotional only single that features dialogue from "Let it Be". Nothing much. At this point, watch the movie instead.

Devil’s Radio by George Harrison – ****
First released: 1987
Another song from "Cloud Nine" that was attempted to be a single. The highly abundant album has this chestnut, which is an ode to gossip. A fine tune by George. Also performed on George Harrison’s "Live in Japan" album and tour in 1991.

Devil’s Been Busy, The by George Harrison – ***
First released: 1990
Muddy and Boo Wilbury (Tom Petty, Bob Dylan) take the lead on this "Traveling Wilburys, Volume 3" track. Did George even show up to these sessions?

Devil Woman by Ringo Starr – ***
First released: 1973
When I purchased the "You’re Sixteen" single, I thought this track was a cover of the popular Cliff Richard tune from 1976. No such luck. It’s not a bad tune, just not the same tune. Oh yeah, it’s also on Ringo. Strangely, when Ringo was issued to CD in 1991, this song segues into "You and Me (Babe)", something the song doesn’t do on vinyl.

Devil in Her Heart by The Beatles – ***
First released: 1963
The Donays recorded this Drapkin tune and The Beatles covered it with a slight lyric modification. It appeared on the "With The Beatles" album. A 1963 radio version appears on the b-side of the 1994 single of "Baby It's You" and not on "Live at the BBC".

Desperado by Joe Walsh – ***
First released: 1993
A live version by Joe Walsh appears on Ringo Starr and "His All-Starr Band Volume 2 Live From Montreux" in 1993 (this version reissued on 2000’s "The Anthology…So Far").

Denny Laine (dialogue) by Denny Laine – ***
First released: 1993
Denny is a little bit nervous and excited about talking about "Band on the Run" on the "20th Anniversary album". Probably because since he left Wings, he hasn’t done much to put him back in the public eye the way he was in Wings and The Moody Blues before that. He reflects glowingly on the experience, with good reason mind you, as "Band on the Run" is a very good album and Denny contributed significantly to it.
