Twist And Shout - The Beatles
Album: Please Please Me (1963)
Difficulty: Solid (3/6)
Originally recorded by the Top Notes and later recorded by the Isley Brothers, the Beatles' rendition of "Twist and Shout" was released on their first UK album Please Please Me, based on the Isley Brothers' version. John Lennon provided the lead vocals and initially felt ashamed of his performance in the song "because I could sing better than that, but now it doesn't bother me. You can hear that I'm just a frantic guy doing his best." A second take was attempted, but Lennon had nothing left, and it was abandoned.
