Found this:
George says; 'On Badge, Eric doesn't play guitar up until that bridge. He sat through it with his guitar in the Leslie (rotating speaker) and Felix Pappalardi was the piano player. So there was Felix, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and me. I played the rhythm chops right up to the bridge, at which point Eric came in on the guitar with the Leslie. And he overdubbed the solo later. I wrote most of the words, Eric had the bridge and he had the first couple of chord changes. I was writing the words down, and when we came to the middle bit I wrote "Bridge". From where he was sitting, opposite me, he looked and said "What's that-Badge?" So he called it Badge, because it made him laugh'.

Thats right, my memory fails me a lot!I remember hearing the story and got it mixed up.The All Things Must Pass is one of my favorites, the remix version that was remastered is terrible, the original is much better.Eric is on the lp.
