Song facts

“Sunshine Sometime” is an outtake from the 1971 sessions for the “Ram” album. It remained unofficially released till its inclusion on the “Ram – Archive Collection” released in 2012.

This song was composed with the idea of being part of the soundtrack of an upcoming animated film about the cartoon character “Rupert The Bear“. Paul McCartney had acquired the rights in April 1970.

I kind of remember using some African drums an clicking on the rims with a wooden stick… we built that track as we went, but basic was done with everyone playing at the same time and then a few overdubs to complete it.
Denny Seiwell, October 2012, quoted in Maccazine Volume 40, Issue 3
