A blast from your past and mine - one of my favorite tracks! Brinsley Schwarz on Lead Guitar, Carter Cathcart on Farfisa, Steve Goulding on Drums and Brian Stanley on Bass Guitar.

Garland re-introduced me to this Classic in 80 when he covered it. Just a kick-ass cover of akick-ass CLASSIC ! ......Garland is STILL ROCKIN', even as we speak, somewhere in the world. YOU CAN BET ON THAT!..

I liked Garland Jeffreys when this song came at. I thought he had that New Wave sound -- and a great song. It was only later that I leaner that the song was an old standard Detroit, US song !
