"You Really Got A Hold On Me" Album cut

Another Motown song covered by the Beatles, originally done by the Miracles. Smokey Robinson later said he really liked the Fabs' version. He wrote it based on Sam Cooke's "Bring It On Home To Me." It's been recorded dozens of times since, by acts ranging from the Supremes to Mickey Gilley to Cyndi Lauper. Clip is from a BBC Radio appearance.
