This Carl Perkins cover is on the Beatles' fourth album (Beatles for Sale) because of their admiration for this storied figure of Rock-'n'-Roll. Honey Don't was the b-side of Perkins' 1956 hit, Blue Suede Shoes, and was a part of the Beatles' repertoire from 1962 on. This cover is virtually identical to the original, with the exception of the ad libs. Ringo, who appears as lead vocal, personally requested permission from Perkins to record the song, and Perkins readily agreed.
