This single was their only release on the Beatles Apple label, and the fourth single to appear on the famous Granny Smith logo.
The Black Dyke Mills Band appeared as part of the backing on the original Yellow Submarine single in 1966, but had been around for many years before that !

The Band has made over 120 recordings.
Former Prime Minister Edward Heath was guest conductor on one, whilst Paul McCartney and Wings broke new ground with the Band with another.
