In 1994, Harrison began a collaboration with McCartney, Starr and producer Jeff Lynne for the ''Beatles Anthology'' project. This included the recording of two new Beatles songs built around solo vocal and piano tapes recorded by Lennon as well as lengthy interviews about the Beatles' career.{{sfn|Everett|1999|p=286}} Released in December 1995, "[[Free as a Bird]]" was the first new Beatles single since 1970.<ref>{{harvnb|Harry|2000|p=428}}; {{harvnb|Everett|1999|pp=287–292}}.</ref> In March 1996, they released a second single, "[[Real Love (Beatles song)|Real Love]]". They also attempted to finish a third single, "[[Now and Then (Beatles song)|Now and Then]]", but did not finish it because the audio quality of the cassette was, according to Harrison, "fucking rubbish". The song was later finished by McCartney and Starr and released in 2023. He later commented on the project: "I hope somebody does this to all my crap demos when I'm dead, make them into hit songs."{{sfn|Huntley|2006|p=259}}
