I'm wondering where I might find Ivy Jo's original recording of this song. I have just one minute of what I think is the original which I'll link here:-

https://soundcloud.com/clipstonesound/ivy-jo-hunter

There's also a more polished later version recorded in 1968 that appeared on "The Rarest Detroit Grooves Volume 4" - which I have.

Is the original available/obtainable anywhere? I thought this would be the place to ask.

TIA

Thanks, Johnny. Never heard that version before. But it seems to be different from the one I posted @ OP...that's the version I'm looking for.

It's also [[the one minute clip) included with this collection of unreleased Ivy Jo songs.
