The Beatles captured the basic track of If You've Got Trouble in a single take and then lead and backing vocals were overdubbed, but the overall sound did not gel and it was soon decided to pass over the recording, and, indeed, the song itself. Ringo made his vocal contribution to Help! by recording a cover version of Buck Owens' country number Act Naturally on 17 June 1965, and If You've Got Trouble has remained locked inside EMI's archive until now.
