[lympia3]

what a suprise,i agree good version.was this released?

[tsunamisasumi]

@lympia3 No, it was not released when it was recorded in 1974. It only surfaced in the new millennium when Abbey Road studios were clearing out old tapes belonging to EMI. Producer Mickie Most is said to have not liked this version because the drums dragged and slowed down in the last verse, so it was shelved.

wow, they did it well, who would have thought it...

[tsunamisasumi]

@DocWyoming... Arrows covered a wide range of musical styles according to the whims of their producer Mickie Most. I'm glad you enjoyed my posting of this.

Alan Merrill rocks this song! I love this cover of one of my favorite songs of all time.

@Tarcangel56 Arrows were a very versatile band!

Arrows were a matched set. All different but similar looking, like brothers.

They made some great records and were a very photogenic band!
