It's a pretty good cover. I disagree with the previous comment that it's almost exactly like the original. It's inferior. Of course the original is terrific.

Not sure the point of this cover. It sounds almost exactly like the original.

Bittersweet. At first I thought this was Gene Clark and the Byrds. This is a fine version, but I was psyched for the original.

I agree. I really don't see that Tom Petty's version offers anything new from the Byrds version. Just about anything else from Full Moon Fever would be a better choice.
Yeah, I prefer the Byrds' version. This one is a little too bland and polished, and the hand-claps don't add a thing. More Byrds please! |

One of the Byrds' great numbers, well treated by Tom P and his boys, but he's always been a fan of McGuinn and that sound.

Tom's tribute to the Byrds - so much of his work was obviously infuenced by them. Very nice cover - note-for-note. Sounds great in concert too. And it is indeed a Ric 360-12. |

Byrds version is better to my ear, but both are incredibly Beatlesque.

I believe this version is pretty much an exact copy of the Byrds version. With modern recording tech. I love it!
