Actually, based on a version of "Hambone," which is the original of "Bo-Diddley." Bo-Diddley just replaced the word, "Hambone," with "Bo-Diddley." Inez & Charlie replaced "Hambone" with "Mockingbird."
i wish james taylor and carly simon had listened to this song a little closer. this song is tight and when they sang it, it was all over the place. this is the genuine article
Great song from THE YEAR . . . 1963 . . . senior year in high school and IMO the best year of any for great R&B/Pop/Soul music. About a year later it started changing for the worse.

The intro., the melody, the absolute perfection of the give and take of the duo, the intense feeling, magic.

Still one of my favourite songs - saw them at The Flamingo in the 60s - great night, so good live.
