Recorded in 1963, this was the final Top 40 record for Jan and Dean. In April 1966, Jan Berry had been in a near-fatal car accident. Dean Torrance made the executive decision to put this out as a single, along with an album consisting of previously released material. It didn't sell much. Their hot rod and surf sound had become a relic, as even the Beach Boys had moved on with their "Pet Sounds" LP. Still, Jan and Dean occupy a significant place in 60's music.
