The sixth of seven straight Top 10 hits to begin the career of Gary Lewis and the Playboys. The flamenco-style guitar was done by Wrecking Crew member Tommy Tedesco, whose son Danny produced a fine documentary about those folks. I'm pretty sure Leon Russell played the organ here, too. What may sound like trumpets are actually trombones that were recorded at half-speed, then added to the master tape at normal speed, raising the pitch by one octave. The tell was how the notes slide - trumpets can't do that, but trombones can. Some inside baseball stuff.
