Besides having one of this group's best-loved hits on the A side, I also treasure this single for the lovely, tender, and unexpected folk number on the flip, which by the way is an early songwriting credit for a young Warren Zevon, who had recorded the song in 1966 under the pseudonym "Lyme" as part of "Lyme & Cybelle." This is the rare first pressing of the group's first — and only — #1 hit single, which has the dark blue White Whale label. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage White Whale Records factory sleeve. It grades Near Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). The B side audio sounds pristine.
