On both the Dave Marsh (#529) and Rolling Stone (#344) lists of the greatest songs/singles, this is one essential 45 you simply must own. And don't forget that the 45 sounds much better than the LP, because of the simply physics of the unique grooves and dimensions of each. (See "Why 45s Sound Better," a section of my online "book" ("The Joy of 45 Collecting") for the gory details.) Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Epic Records factory sleeve. It has pristine Mint sound.
