Albums 1964 Beatles for Sale 1994 Live at the BBC 1995 Anthology 1 Info The recording of the medley of "Kansas City" and "Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey" was memorable for McCartney, who in 1984 said that it required "a great deal of nerve to just jump up and scream like an idiot." His efforts were egged on by Lennon, who "would go, 'Come on! You can sing it better than that, man! Come on, come on! Really throw it!'" The song was inspired by Little Richard, who combined "Kansas City" with his own composition, "Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey" Written by: Leiber-Stoller/Penniman John: Rythm Guitar, Backing Vocal Paul: Bass Guitar, Lead vocal George: lead guitar Ringo: drums From Wikipedia and The Spanish Beatle Page.
