Notes: ~ Perry's recording of this song was re-released in the 1983 compilation "So It Goes"

more than twenty years following the original recording session in 1962. Apart from only slight

differences resulting from microphone technique and recording technology, his performance is

virtually indistinguishable from the new recordings within the 1981/82 compilation.

Many listeners were unaware that the recording had been made twenty years earlier.
