In February 1971, George Harrison and Phil Spector decided to produce some tracks for Phil's wife Ronnie Spector. Together with Leon Russell, Gary Wright, Jim Gordon, and Carl Radle, they recorded, or at least began, six songs before the sessions were abandoned. (George would then go on to produce a few tracks for Badfinger, including "Day After Day", and abandon those sessions too.) One of the songs started at the Ronnie Spector sessions was "You", which would end up on George's "Extra Texture" LP in 1975. Two other songs, "Try Some Buy Some" (written by Harrison) and "Tandoori Chicken" (written by Harrison and Spector), were released as an Apple single. "Try Some Buy Some" would also turn up on George's "Living In The Material World" in 1973. "Tandoori Chicken" was one of the songs in the sing-along heard on the tape of John Lennon's birthday party on 10/9/71.
Here's the single, never released on LP or CD:
