This is a very nice copy of the second pressing, on the black Mercury label with silver print. This big hit was a non-album single available only on a later greatest hits LP. Note: This 45 record comes in a vintage Mercury Records factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels, and the vinyl grades a strong EX to reflect some scuffing. The audio grades a strong EX as well, reflecting a touch of surface noise.
