Yeah, I knew it was an old song when their version came out. I liked every single one the 70s version by Commander Cody the best.

I remember the British Invasion band “The Searchers” redid a lot of old songs and they were invariably better than the originals.

Charlie Ryan wrote and recorded the original Hot Rod Lincoln. I have the 45, think it was on the 4 Star label but not sure.
