Description
**THE ABSOLUTE RAREST OF THE RIVINGTONS SINGLES IT WAS THEIR THIRD (OF 5) SINGLE AND A COMMERCIAL FAILURE ONLY MANAGING TO REACH NUMBER 106 IN THE US CHARTS. IT DID HOWEVER BECOME A BIT OF A CULT TRACK WITH THE R&B CRWOD MANAGING A CREDITABLE NUMBER 27 IN THE R&B CHARTS. RELEASED IN 1962 IN THE US ON THE LIBERTY LABEL.**
I TRY HARD NOT TO OVERUSE THE TERM 'RARE' WHEN LISTING RECORDS. THIS ONE HOWEVER FITS THE BILL.
SANDWICHED BY IMMENSE HITS 'PAPA OO MOW MOW' (1ST SINGLE) AND 'THE BIRDS THE WORD' (4TH SINGLE) THIS HAS A SIMILARLY CATCHY HOOK LINE BUT FAILED TO HIT THE HIGH NOTES WITH THE PUBLIC.
IF YOU ARE A COLLECTOR OF SURF, MOD, PSYCH /FREAKBEAT YOU WILL RARELY SEE ANOTHER COPY IN SUCH PLAYGRADED QUALITY.
**A COLLECTORS COPY MINT MINUS PLAYGRADED DEMONSTRATION 'AUDITION' RADIO STATION COPY OF
