"Rock And Roll Music" Beatles album cut

Written and originally done by Chuck Berry as his single just before "Sweet Little Sixteen" in 1957. The Fab Four needed songs to meet a deadline for their "Beatles For Sale" album, so they went into the archives from their Hamburg and Cavern Club days for this one. It was released in some countries as a 45, reaching #1 in Norway and Australia, but was never a single for them in the US or UK. The Beach Boys' version was a Top 5 record in 1976.
