<P> Because Capitol Records' version of the Help! album included only the songs that appeared in the film Help!, plus incidental music from the film, the label held back "Yesterday" and "Act Naturally" and issued them as a non-LP single . As the B - side of the U.S. single, "Act Naturally" peaked at #47 in October 1965 . The two songs made their first US album appearance on Yesterday and Today, released in the U.S. on June 20, 1966 . </P> <P> When the single was reissued on Apple Records in 1971, "Act Naturally" had the "full apple" side and "Yesterday" ended up on the "sliced apple" side . That is because "Act Naturally" was the intended A-side and has always been listed as such in Capitol's files . </P> <P> The song became one of the ones closely identified with Starr and he has performed it on every tour iteration, and virtually every show, of Ringo Starr & His All - Starr Band, beginning in 1989 . </P> <Ul> <Li> Ringo Starr--lead vocal, drums </Li> <Li> George Harrison--double - tracked lead guitar </Li> <Li> Paul McCartney--harmony vocal, bass </Li> <Li> John Lennon--acoustic guitar </Li> </Ul>
