Just about every band has recorded this song--or at least they should have--from Tommy James and the Shonedells to Tom Jones. But I like this version. Coupled with period shots from the 60s, this makes for a great video.

Never heard of Don Fardon. But apparently he also recorded Indian Reservation, which is a great song. Cherokee people, cherokee tribe! Sung by white guy from England. Love it.
ReplyDeleteI like his version of Indian Reservation better than the more familiar one of Paul Revere and the Raiders.

I remember hearing this one on WLS out of Chicago at least 1,000 times.
