I quite like Martha My Dear, Paul's piano playing , he says, is a bit more complex than normal in this song, in fact, it's one of my favourite White Album tracks. I was reading about this track on The Beatles Bible and i was quite surprised to learn NO other Beatle plays on this track.. Is that correct ? www.beatlesbible.com/songs/martha-my-dear/

Some of the readers' comments suggest at least some of the other Beatles may have helped and there is a great photo with Paul at the piano and singing and George is playing his electric guitar and there are musicians on brass instruments. The poster there says it is from the "Martha My Dear" sessions.
It is a nice, jaunty song. I always thought it a nice start to Side 2.

Lewisohn, in the Complete Beatles says it's likely Paul is the only Beatle on it.
