A hundred singers have recorded a version of this Chuck Berry song. To me, I rate Roy's version as amongst the best ever. From the 1972 MGM album "Memphis". This also came out as a 45 (B side was "I can read between the lines"). Superb Guitar work.

Note: I do not own the copyright. It is either SONY or Polydor and the Roy Orbison Estate. I Am merely a fan of this man and felt that the song deserves to be on the you tube medium to be heard by other fans who may not have heard the song. That's all folks...

Totally agree - This version rocks. Livelier than all the other versions. Catchy.
