This version was a top 8 hit in the late 60s.

But I think I like the original better.

I agree the the Skyliner's version is better; but, I think that this verson ( I could be mistaken) predates theirs, and it, IMHO, is the best of this one!

And then, there are horrible remakes. Grand Funk Railroad made a cover of Little Eva's "Locomotion". But listen closely--they start off accapella; but when the music kicks in, they are a full step off key! YUCK!!!

53 years ago today, the music died, when Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and The Big Bopper were killed in a tragic plane crash in an Iowa cornfield.

Old time rock n' roll. The Beatles covered this one, but the original the best.

I actaully have this 45rpm! Here is Jerry Landis:
Landis, Jerry - The lone Teen Ranger - YouTube
And now, for the trivia! Really listen to that voice. You will know it. A few years later, he teamed up with another guy, and they began to record as the duo "Tom and Jerry" Jerry, of course from his solo career. But very soon, they changed the name of the duo to another name. The new name? Well, only the fabulous "Simon and Garfunkel"!
