First released: 1963
Second only to "Louie, Louie", this is probably the most covered song in the history of rock and roll. Barrett Strong had the first version in 1960, while The Kingsmen had the biggest hit version in 1964. The Beatles’ version first appeared on the British "With The Beatles" album, and so it was only natural that Lennon would cover it years later on his "Plastic Ono Band – Live Peace in Toronto 1969" album released in 1970. It was also on 1990’s "Lennon". The Beatles also recorded it earlier in 1962 for their Decca Audition. A live version from 1963 appears on "Anthology 1" in 1995.
