The original version of "You're No Good", covered by everyone from Betty Everett and the Swinging Bluejeans to Van Halen and (most notably) Linda Ronstadt, who took it to #1 in 1974. Dig that nasty fuzztone!
@recordguy4321 Yes, I'll agree with you. I'll even go on to add the production's sound is very similar to Marvin Gaye's I HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE; very simple, but very powerful. Very...mysterious sounding.
Dee Dee, you go girl....even the flipside, a song called DON'T CALL ME ANYMORE is a great soulful, gritty tune. This record by Dee Dee is perhaps better than anything she did later on in the sixtie because of the raw and earthy vocal by our gal Dee Dee.

Lieber and Stoller had the right idea with Dee Dee on this. The studio band is smokin on this. Mike Stoller must have played the piano. Just a hunch.

Pretty darn gutsy - I'd say the most raw version of all the ones I've heard.

A really gutsy interpretation. Linda Ronstadt's version is great too. Thanks for posting.
