The release of this single was delayed by three weeks due to the ongoing chart action of the previous single, 'Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da'/'While My Guitar Gently Weeps'. Indeed, Northern Songs (Leeds Music) had only removed the performance restriction on 2 May 1969.
The single remained available until the late 1980s. At some point in the early 70s, side 2 was recut ('B').
