The "Rubber Soul" version was recorded in one take, with overdubs, during a late-night session on 4 November 1965. George Martin produced, supported by engineers Norman Smith, Ken Scott and Graham Platt. Everett writes that Lennon's guitar part is in the style of Steve Cropper and his "Memphis 'chick' rhythm part." He adds that George Harrison includes "rockabilly string crossings, double-stops, and portamento neighbors." Starr likely recorded a guide vocal on the basic track, wiped over by his final vocal overdub. The original guide vocal can be heard through the drum mike during Starr's solo and during the coda. As well, during the verse before the lead break after Starr sings "tell me why," Lennon says, "We already told you why!", in reference to the Beatles' "Tell Me Why" from "A Hard Day's Night".
