First released: 1963
Strangely, although Lennon idolized Chuck Berry, it was Harrison who took the lead vocal on this and all subsequent renditions of The Beatles’ cover version. Berry’s version originally appeared in 1956 and The Beatles’ version ended up on With The Beatles, and was also a Canadian single. A 1963 radio version appears on 1994's "Live at the BBC".
The Beatles performed it live on "Live at the Star-Club, Hamburg 1962" in 1977. A different live version from 1963 appears on "Anthology 1" in 1995. Also performed on George Harrison’s "Live in Japan" album and tour in 1991.
