So much fun, and I think it sounds great. George really nails it, and Paul and John’s parts always crack me up. It’s a pity this wasn’t recorded on one of their albums. I think it would have been a better choice than some of the other covers they did.

My favorite song from the Decca sessions. I used to own the semi-legit LP “The Complete Silver Beatles” (on Audio Fidelity Records). This was actually a neat compilation album. It had a beautiful silver and gold album cover and rather informative liner notes on the back. I think some of the tracks were mastered at an incorrect speed, as John’s vocals sound like he’s a chipmunk! Only other problem with his LP was that it did not feature the Lennon/McCartney original songs.

How could Decca reject this? They sound very professional and aced the song. Where can anyone find the 1969 version ?

Deccas upper management thought guitar acts would fall out of favor soon. Luckily the same blockheads at decce who turned down the beatles came to their senses in time to sign the stones. The people at decca must have realized the stupidity of their new years day 1962 audition rejection when the stones first hit was a throwaway song written by paul and john!

Later (early fifties) as a solid bar indented to be easily broken into three pieces.
