Well, there you go! I didn't know the version by the Beach Boys (which was the one that came to my mind) was a cover version in 1965 of this original 1961 hit! Live and learn. Thanks, George.

1962, covered by Jan & Dean, 1966 by The Who and in 1979 was used as the basis of Bomb Iran - as the American's Iranian Embassy hostage crisis (Jimmy Carter, helicopters crashing in the desert etc) was in the news.

Lots of cover versions around, very few match or surpass the original but step forward County Durham's finest. Brian Ferry with his cover of John Lennon's Jealous Guy
