You can't do wrong with either side of this terrific single, which somehow escaped notice at Pop and Black/RnB radio when released in 1967, but I took a quick fondness to the B side ("Love Song"), which as I suspected is not available from the iTunes store or other online services. Note: This beautiful copy has a drillhole and comes in a vintage Brunswick Records factory sleeve (see scan). It has Near Mint labels and, despite some notable scuffs and light scratches that lower the Vinyl grade to EX, Near Mint audio; the audio has very light surface noise occasionally audible beneath the very strong, undistorted music.
