Yeh, Yeh

"Yeh, Yeh" (in some territories released as "Yeah, yeh, yeh") is a Latin soul tune that was written as an instrumental by Rodgers Grant and Pat Patrick, and first recorded by Mongo Santamaría on his 1963 album ''Watermelon Man!'' Lyrics were written for it shortly thereafter by Jon Hendricks of the vocal group Lambert, Hendricks & Ross.

This version of the song was taken to the top of the UK Singles Chart in January 1965 by Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames (b/w "Preach and Teach", Columbia DB 7428), breaking the Beatles' long-term hold on the number one spot of five weeks with "I Feel Fine", and a month later appeared on the US ''Billboard'' pop singles chart to peak at #21. The saxophone solo was by Peter Coe, but was edited out for the US single release. Interviewed after the 2003 Jools Holland ''Spring Hootennany'', where he had played a "dynamite version" of the song, Fame explained that the arrangement had been written by Tubby Hayes.
