"I Wanna Be Your Man" is a
Lennon–McCartney-penned song first recorded and released as
a single by the Rolling Stones, and then recorded by the
Beatles for their second studio album With the Beatles. The
song was primarily written by Paul McCartney, and finished
by Lennon and McCartney in the corner of a Richmond club
while Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were talking.
Released as their second single on 1 November 1963, the
Stones' version was the group's first UK top-20 hit, peaking
at number 12 on the British chart. Their rendition features
Brian Jones' distinctive slide guitar and Bill Wyman's
driving bass playing. It is one of the few Rolling Stones
songs to feature only Brian Jones on backing vocals. In the
US, the song was initially released as London 45-LON 9641
(with "Stoned" on the B side) without any success and was
soon after re-released on 6 March 1964 as the B-side to "Not
Fade Away". (from Wikipedia)
