Everybody’s Trying to Be My Baby by The Beatles - **

First released: 1964

At this point, George was having the same problem as Ringo, in that he wasn’t composing and Lennon and McCartney weren’t composing for them, so George, like Ringo, resorted to a Carl Perkins cover for "Beatles For Sale".

The Beatles performed it live on "Live at the Star-Club, Hamburg 1962" in 1977. A 1964 radio version appears on 1994's "Live at the BBC". A 1965 live version appears on "Anthology 2" in 1996. George played it live with Perkins in 1985 on "Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session".
