About

From Rolling Stone:

[…] McCartney and Lennon reunited briefly for a studio jam session in 1974 that also featured Stevie Wonder, Harry Nilsson, Linda McCartney and Bobby Keys. “We were stoned,” McCartney says of the session, which has been immortalized as the bootleg Toot and a Snore. “I don’t think there was anyone in that room who wasn’t stoned. For some ungodly reason, I decided to get on drums. It was just a party, you know. To use the word ‘disorganized’ is completely understating it. I might have made a feeble attempt to restore order – “guys, you know, let’s think of a song, that would be a good idea’ – but I can’t remember if I did or not.”

From The Beatles Monthly Book N°255, July 1997:

The ‘toot’ in the title refers to cocaine, which John can be heard alluding to on the CD, while the word ‘snore’ indicated that, for all its promise, the recording of the session turns out to be rather dull.
