I never knew that Harrison's version was a remake until this posting confirming once again that FR has the proverbial smartest people in the room regardless of the subject. Politics, guns, finance and music.
I got to like Harrison's version since it was everywhere on the radio in the 80's and it's very catchy. Or as Mr. White of Play-Tone would say:
LOL, yep SNAPPY
The only way I learned about the original is from an interview that Harrison gave when his album came out. Of course, as an avid record collector and music buff, I had to look up the original.
