From BeatlesWiki
Rip It Up is a song first released by Little Richard in 1956. The Beatles covered it in a jam during the Ge Back sessions in January 1969. It was in a medley with Shake Rattle and Roll, Kansas City, Miss Ann, Lawdy Miss Clawdy, and Blue Suede Shoes. A much edited-down version of this jam is included on Anthology 3. The Beatles had actually performed it live from 1959 to 1961. John Lennon would also cover it as a solo artist on his 1975 album Rock 'N' Roll.
