The Beatles have been covered endlessly, but in the early days they were performing and recording plenty of covers of American pop songs.
To be honest, I like Larry Williams' recording (1957) better, but the more The Beatles played it live the better it got.
They also covered Carl Perkins' Matchbox, The Isley Brothers' Twist and Shout and others, and other British groups were doing the same, so a lot of the "British Invasion" in the beginning was just serving our own music back to us.

Then the Isley's got fed up and decided to do some covering of their own.

They had good taste, gerald424.

It's an interesting take, but where's Charlie Watts when you need him? Del's pretty much up to speed, but I think maybe the other guys could use another cup of coffee. It settles into a pretty relaxed groove.

I Love Melvin, think you might find that Pete Townshend had a bit too much caffeine when he recorded his garage guitar for the WHO's support to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards during their 1967 drug incarceration:
