The A side is a nice, Sunshine Pop-style cover of the Carole King-Gerry Goffin classic, but the real story here is the Psych Rock-style B side, which is filled with growly guitar bits, unusual time changes, and vocal hooks. Note: This beautiful-looking copy has only EX audio on the A side and VG audio on the flip, reflecting some light surface noise and/or styrene-related distortion. It's nice to whet your appetite for a better-sounding copy down the road.
