Bobby Hebb was certainly one of the few people, if not the only one, to work with both country music legend Roy Acuff and the Beatles. He once appeared on a local TV show in his hometown of Nashville, and that got him a job in Mr. Acuff's band. Bobby thus became one of the first African-Americans to take to the Grand Ole Opry stage, long before Charley Pride. When this song was on the charts, he was one of the opening acts on the Fab Four's last concert tour. Quite the daily double.
