"The Next Time" backed with "Bachelor Boy" was the first of three number one hit
The recording of the song took place at
UK Singles Chart in January 1963.[4]
The song was included on the January 1963 album box-office attraction of the year.
Chart performance
The single is retroactively referred to as a
double A-side
because both sides of the single were promoted. In many countries, "Bachelor Boy" became the bigger hit and the charts listed it first or on its own. In some countries both songs were listed separately on the charts despite them being the same record.
