COMMENTS |
"Everybody's Trying to Be My
Baby" is a rockabilly song often credited to Carl Perkins.
Based on a 1936 song written by singer/songwriter Rex
Griffin, it achieved widespread popularity when it was
released in 1957 by Perkins and covered by the Beatles in
1964.
The Beatles recorded "Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby" on
October 18, 1964, at EMI Studios, London, with George
Harrison (a lifelong fan of Perkins) on vocals. Harrison's
vocals were heavily processed with the STEED effect. It was
first released as the final track on Beatles for Sale in the
United Kingdom later that year, and likewise as the
concluding track on the North American album Beatles '65.
