    I'm curious which version of the song is on here. The original, which is at a slower tempo and I think runs longer, is excellent. In response to schmutzba, I have a theory that this song was actually written by an uncredited Sly Stone. Check out his song "Hoboken," which has the same organ and horn parts and was unreleased at the time this came out.

      Per a seemingly educated Amazon.com review, track 4 ("Ah Shoot") isn't the original LP version, and sounds inferior. It appears to also be slightly longer.
