McCartney Times

When choosing songs to cover in concert or on record, the Beatles did not select obvious tracks. Sure, they played Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly and Carl Perkins tunes, but they also favored lesser-known R&B artists and girl-group covers. No other song may have as fascinating a history as “Devil in Her Heart,” originally released in 1962 as “Devil in His Heart” by a one-hit-wonder group called the Donays. Without the Beatles discovering the single by chance, the Donays may have faded into complete obscurity.
