"I'm Into Something Good" (Earl-Jean) #38 8/8/1964 Bonus
The debut single in America and Britain for Herman's Hermits became their first UK #1 hit. This Gerry Goffin-Carole King song was done originally, however, by Earl-Jean, lead singer of the Cookies. Her version (or is it the Cookies? Hard to tell - the billing was kinda interchangeable) just barely cracked the Top 40 in August '64. The Hermits took it to #13 here shortly thereafter.

I'd like to hear both versions played side-by-side.
I was listening to the radio when the song came out. Heard each version at the time of their release.
