Love's version came out in 1966 on Love (Elektra EKL 4001). Love was the first rock group signed by Jac Holzman to then-folk label Elektra.
Before he formed Love, a teenaged Lee -- making his stab at becoming the next Phil Spector-gave a young upstart named Jimi Hendrix a studio gig on Rosa Lee Brooks' moony symphonette "My Diary." Some say that Hendrix lifted Lee's outrageous "black hippie" fashion schtick.
