SCAFFOLD

The A-side was produced by Paul McCartney and the traditional song was arranged by Paul and Linda.
The B-side was produced by McCartney Productions, and written by Paul and Linda. It is a strong tune with a rockin' guitar ... but, has the members of the Scaffold having a pub style random chat over the top of it.

Scaffold's first hit for over four years also turned out to be their last.
Prior to this they had had four hit singles in the sixties, one of which (Lily The Pink) was actually a big number one over Christmas 1968.

Scaffold were, Roger McGough, Mike McGear, and John Gorman and performed a mixture of pop music, poetry and comedy.
Mike McGear kept his true identity hidden for some time, being unwilling to trade on his famous brother's name. And even once revealed as really being Michael McCartney, kept McGear as his stage name.
