[3][better source needed] The EP includes three cover versions—the title track, "Slow Down" and "Matchbox"—as well as one Lennon-McCartney original, "I Call Your Name", a song originally given to Billy J. Kramer and his backing band, The Dakotas.
In 1988, all four of the songs from the EP were included on the compilation album Past Masters, Volume One.
The picture on the EP cover was taken by Robert Freeman, as stated on the back.
