What was the B-side of George Harrison's 1971 single 'Bangla Desh'?

The B-side of George Harrison’s 1971 single “Bangla Desh” was “Deep Blue.” The A-side was Harrison’s charity song supporting relief efforts for refugees affected by the Bangladesh Liberation War.

Harrison wrote “Deep Blue” in 1970 while his mother, Louise, was seriously ill with cancer. He began recording it during the sessions connected with All Things Must Pass, then completed the track in Los Angeles in July 1971 while organising the Concert for Bangladesh.

The song’s personal subject also connected to the humanitarian crisis behind the single. Its lyrics and atmosphere evoke illness, helplessness, and suffering, making it a natural companion to “Bangla Desh,” even though it was not itself the campaign’s main anthem.

The record was issued on Apple Records on 28 July 1971. The other options are Harrison songs, but they belong to different releases: “Maya Love” appeared on Dark Horse, “Miss O’Dell” was associated with later solo material, and “Apple Scruffs” appeared on All Things Must Pass.
