Does this get played and does it have any value?

Cheers

As I recall it's got two diff mixes on each side but both have been re-mastered, the only way to get the 'original' version on vinyl is by one of those white label re-issues.

Still, the UK copy with pic sleeve IS the first release vinyl wise so has to be worth keeping hold of.

Hate it when they mess about with great tunes and try to "modernise" them!

the original version is from 1964-----only ever seen that on acetate------Bob Hinsley and Liana are the only ones ive ever heard play it out---------great record ----the later issues arent as good imo.

I couldn't agree more. I also had the 12" with 5/6 different modernised versions none of them that much good. The radio edit on the 45 is the simplest and the best 'new' version IMO
