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. It comes in a nearly flawless picture sleeve... a very rare item that's a first for Classic 45s. Note: This beautiful copy has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). The picture sleeve's only flaw is a tiny original retail price sticker on one side.
