This song is written by Alton and DiTosti, but which band were these guys members of? Who recorded it originally?

It does sound like it. The riff is a common one, but this just happens to be in the same exact key, is very close to the same tempo.

I think this version has the strongest vibe, and bit slower smoldering kind of tempo, like their 'Rari'. Pretty good pop anyway...I guess the Watchband more specialized in the acidic, whereas these guys mostly sang about girls. Maybe they were aiming top 40, and trying to be metaphorical?

In 1984, THE VIPERS did a wonderful version of this song from "Outta The Nest!" It actually sounded more sixties garage than this version or THE CHOCOLATE WATCH BAND's version. No dissing at all intended. All I am saying is that THE VIPERS were so good at recreating the atmosphere of 1966 & 1967 that it is worth noting...

Yes. I have to agree. The Chocolate Watchband's version is incredible.
I have it in my collection. That band, CWB, really catches the mood of this song.
Their lead singer, Dave Aguilar, really gets into the songs. He used to do Mick Jagger better than Mick Jagger.

I like both versions, Chocolate Watchband is a little more psychedellic.

When Dick Dodd arrived in 1966, everything changed in the band.
