Ringo co-wrote <em>What Goes On<\/em>, another country track, with John and Paul, which was on side 2 of <em>Rubber Soul (<\/em>1965), and also received a co-writing credit with the other three Beatles for the psychedelic instrumental, <em>Flying<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Flying<\/em> was the only instrumental the Beatles officially released during their career. It was recorded for the <em>Magical Mystery Tour<\/em> soundtrack in 1968. (Pop Trivia fact: <em>MMT<\/em> was released as a double EP in the UK in 1968, but as an album by Capitol in the U.S. Parlophone later realized that it had mileage as an album and copied the U.S. strategy.)<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to common belief, Ringo didn\u2019t write <em>Yellow Submarine<\/em>, although he sang the lead vocal.
