I'll Follow The Sun

Recordings of "I'll Follow The Sun" date back to 1960; is this is the
earliest recording of a Lennon/McCartney (or McCartney/Lennon) song
that would be released on their Beatles LPs?

And more im****tantly -- because it leads to discussion -- does anyone
know why THIS particular song was the one they went back to in 1964?
Certainly other songs were left behind ("One After 909" being the most
obvious), and there were lots of songs given away in between. Was
their any suggestion from the Beatles as to what makes *this* one
particularly special?
