*First line is the duo name. 1969. The original single took over 100 hours to record. It was recorded at multiple locations including St. Paul's Chapel in New York and Nashville. Famed Wrecking Crew drummer Hal Blaine created the reverberating snare drum sound. Some have interpreted the chorus as an attack on Bob Dylan, but most agree this is not true. The song was a huge international success cracking the Top 10 in 15 countries.
