COMMENTS | "Honey Don't" is a song written
by Carl Perkins, originally released on 1st January, 1956 as
the B-side of the "Blue Suede Shoes" single, Sun 234. Both
songs became rockabilly classics. Bill Dahl of Allmusic
praised the song saying, "'Honey Don't' actually outclasses
its more celebrated platter-mate in some ways." It has been
covered by more than 20 other artists, including the
Beatles, Ronnie Hawkins and Johnny Rivers. The song has
appeared in the films Prince of Tides, Diner, and Perfect
Sisters. The Beatles recorded their version on 26th October 1964 one of the last songs recorded for Beatles for Sale, which was released in the United Kingdom on 4th December 1964. The North American release was on 15th December on Beatles '65. Although John Lennon had previously sung the song live, Ringo Starr performed it for the album, his usual one lead vocal per album.
