Yeah I found the Beatles version very boring to listen to, really hard not to close it down at the half way mark, they can't be brilliant at everything. I only ever knew the version by The Flamin' Groovies, but then my brother told me about the original by this guy A.A. So that's why I'm here. I'll have to check out all the other versions now.

OK, to be fair I listened to 3 of the versions you referenced: Beatles, Johnny Kidd & Van Morrison. Thumbs down on the first 2. Too white. I thought I was going to like Morrison's because of the slower tempo, but the vocals were awful! I do agree that we tend to like the original that we first heard. I will say, though, that I have found some cover versions that I ended up liking better than the original, notwithstanding the memories connected with the first version.

I'm sure it was as in 1962 it was the first and only commercvial recording of Terry Thompson's song.until both The Beatles and Johnny Kidd & the Pirates covered it the following year. Arthur's is not a BAD recording. It's just that others have done it better in the years since (Cilla Black, Van Morrison, etc.). One thing of note about human nature: we tend to prefer the FIRST version of a song we hear and everything else sounds inferior. We all have our own memories tied to certain recordings.

Oooooh, sorry, no. There's a reason this version was practically worn thin on the Garner State Park jukebox (as it also was on "hi-fi"). This song just BELONGS to Arthur Alexander. BTW, I have this record and it looks like the one in the video. Well worn!! I still play it to this day.

Perhaps you've never heard the Dave Edmunds version. Anyway, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. .
