Originally released on King 5171, the B side is the original version of the song that became the biggest dance craze of the early 1960's. The Chubby Checker version is almost a note-for-note copy. This is a Canadian reissue by Gusto/King, on the original blue/silver King label. The label notes that this is "the original mono version".
