Besides the A side of this classic single  which occupies spot #259 in Dave Marsh's list of the 1,001 greatest singles of all time  the B side is listed at No. 598 in Marsh's book! So this single ends up taking two places in his book... One of only a few classic 45s to achieve that feat. This is the original issue, without 'a subsidiary of...' etc. language on label. By the way, this single is specially edited from a 2:35 album track. The B side was a non-album cut that didn't appear on the "Help!" album. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Capitol Records factory sleeve. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).
