The initial version of this song was folk-based and received no notice. It looked like the latest incarnation of Tom & Jerry would fail as miserably as the first.
While the guys were in Miami on tour, back in New York, producer Roy Halee added a rock guitar and drum track to the song. Thanks to Bob Dylan’s success with folk-rock during the summer with “Like a Rolling Stone,” Halee thought that this treatment was what the song needed. When the guys heard it break on the radio at Miami’s WQAM, they were furious. But when the record took off and the money started pouring in, they changed their minds.
