The Beatles recorded this in nine takes on George Harrison's 21st Birthday (in the same session as "And I Love Her" and "I Should Have Known Better"), although in May, producer George Martin overdubbed a piano making a 10th take that wasn't used. The one that saw the light of the day was Take 9.
This was filmed for the movie A Hard Day's Night, but did not make the cut. It was, however, included on the movie's soundtrack, which was released by the film's production company United Artists. Since United Artists had the soundtrack rights, The Beatles' American label, Capitol, released it as the B-side of "Can't Buy Me Love."
John Lennon played lead guitar. He normally played rhythm while George Harrison played lead. Ringo played the cowbell.
