COMMENTS
This version of "Skinny Minny" came out for the first time in any country on this single. At that time it came out in mono.
This recording was done by Tony Sheridan without The Beatles.
The Beatles don't play on this recording of "Skinny Minny". The version of the melody on this single is a new recording made by Tony Sheridan together with Bobby Patrick Big Six under the direction of prducer Paul Murphy in Studio Hamburg (Rahlstedt) in 1964, and not the original which was recorded in December 1961 (The Beatles don't play on the recording of "Skinny Minny" recorded in December 1961 either).
A and B-sides of the label list the artists as "Tony Sheridan And The Beat Brothers", even though it is The Beatles who play on this version of "Sweet Georgia Brown" and Bobby Patrick Big Six who accompany Tony Sheridan on this recording of "Skinny Minny".

The small asterisk star was printed under the artist name at the bottom of the label.
