Besides the classic A side, this single is doubly wonderful because of the great garage-rock nugget hiding on the B side. The A side is a specially edited version of a 3:28 album track. Collector Nerd Alert: Most pressings of this release are on Dunhill/ABC; however, at the beginning of the single's run a few copies were released on Dunhill... those command slightly higher prices. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Dunhill Records factory sleeve. It has very nearly Mint labels, and the vinyl looks almost untouched. The astounding audio from this 45 shines through pristine Mint... a real treat! (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)
