Background

[edit]

Early pressings of the 45 credited the writing to Tommy James, Mike Vale, and Robert King; at some point in the single's hit run this was amended to Tommy James, Mike Vale, Jeffry Katz, Jerry Kasenetz, and Ritchie Cordell, which is how it would be credited on Travelin' and on subsequent compilations.
