Too tacky for Parlophone
Parlophone initially refused to issue the single in the UK, regarding the medley as “tacky”. But after the import demand for the US release grew, it was finally issued as Parlophone R 6055. The original B-side was an interview with the Beatles about the making of the movie A Hard Day’s Night. It was later re-released with I’m Happy Just To Dance With You as the B-side.
