The Beatles Song of the Day is “Ask Me Why” which appears on their debut album “Please Please Me’ This was the sixth song on side 1 of the album [I miss albums and there was a science to how to sequence and album. Now all that is lost with CD’s and every other format} After there straight covers we are back to a Lennon-McCartney original. This Lennon-McCartney song was written by John Lennon. John Lennon: Lead vocal and rhythm guitar/ Paul McCartney: Bass guitar and harmony vocal/ George Harrison: Lead guitar and harmony vocal/ Ringo Starr: Drums. Recorded at Abbey Road on November 26th, 1962. Producer: George Martin. This is an early Lennon song written under the influence of Smokey Robinson. Lennon’s words are superior to the music, which sounds rushed. This song was just a knock off B-Side. Nothing special.

Nothing Beatles is B-side. All are winners.
I agree!
I’ve begun to take much of the Fabs’ pre-Rubber Soul work for granted, which is a silly thing to do. I haven’t listened to this album for about a year, but I’m hearing the harmonies from this song in my head right now as I type. There was just nothing like it.
I agree with you on the earlier albums. They were game changing when they were released.
