| Short description | UK release of My Bonnie/The Saints by Tony Sheridan featuring The Beatles. |
| Location | UK |
After much persuasion, Brian Epstein convinced Polydor to rerelease the My Bonnie single in the UK. In this request, he also asked that the sleeve be changed so that they would be called The Beatles. On the original German release, The Beatles were billed as "The Beat Brothers," because "Beatles" sounded too much like "peedles," German slang for a small penis.
