I Wanna Be Your Man

I WANNA BE YOUR MAN
 
 
“I Wanna Be Your Man”  is a Lennon–McCartney-penned song recorded and released as a single by the Rolling Stones, and then recorded by the Beatles.  The song was primarily written by Paul McCartney, and finished by Lennon and McCartney in the corner of a room while Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were talking.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

Of course, the Beatles recorded their own version of “I Wanna be Your Man”; it was included on Meet the Beatles, with Ringo Starr on double-tracked lead vocals.

Like “I Wanna be Your Man”, which was first recorded by the Rolling Stones, “Hello Little Girl” was one of the songs that they gave to others to record.  A little known Liverpool band (at least in this country) called the Fourmost first recorded “Hello Little Girl” in 1963 and made it to #9 on the British charts; Gerry and the Pacemakers also recorded the song in this time period.
