This is a beautiful stock copy, in its original Capitol factory sleeve. This appealing pop cover of the Sam Cooke classic was one of Dr. Hook's biggest hits. Chart Trivia Nerd Alert: Curiously, the Dr. Hook band had exactly six Top 10 hits, and of those, the biggest two hit #5 ("Sylvia's Mother" and "Sexy Eyes") while the remaining four all peaked at #6. On this single, be sure to also check out the Deozert McClinton cover on the flip, which rocks out more than usual for this band.
