 Albums by The Beatles
| You know that Ringo had his moment of glory on each record (well almost). For this one, it was Lennon and McCartney's "I Wanna Be Your Man". They also gave it to a young British group who was looking for a tune at the time. Which band was it? | Still "With The Beatles" (JPGR) |
The Rolling Stones. This was the first top twenty hit for the Rolling Stones. Now I take the opportunity to say that the Beatles and the Stones never were enemies. This "I Wanna Be Your Man" thing would be a proof and more: John and Paul did the chorus on "We Love You" as well as Mick on "Baby You're A Rich Man" and so on. They even managed not to release their records at the same time, to avoid competition.
