The group recorded two versions of the song. The original (with sax opening) was only released as a single.[3] A re-recorded "groovy, quasi-psychedelic rearrangement"[2] (with guitar opening) was featured on the Midnight Ride album in 1966 as well as the group's first Greatest Hits compilation the following year.
