I think that they were making more money with the tours than with the records by those early years!

Maybe they were thinking eternity already. By half 1965 they knew their time as a live band was soon to come to an end. They knew they would be recording artists rather than performing artists. And records last longer than a performance.

I don't think none of those thoughts were on their minds when they were recording the album (end of summer  - begining of autumn 1964) ... it was just months after they conquered USA and they were enjoying the tours for sure ... maybe after that year, probably end of 1965, as you've said, but thinking being only recording artists by 1964?! ... and after being tourig around Europe by 1965 they were seeing the end of all that tiring travels, yep! ;)

Ok, What You're Doing is probably not their strongest song, but it is catchy. There are other albums that have far worse songs on it. As an album, I'm going to have to say overall it's great. It sounds like they're moving a bit towards all that would follow. A small transition, if you will.
