I don't agree.  The Watchband's *cover* of this song fits better into the
LA punk/psych/Sunset Strip sound... but the original version, taken in the
context of the band's other music, is just as good in its own way.

There is a great compilation of The Tongues of Truth/The Grodes (the same
band actually, there was a quick name change for the issue of Let's Talk
About Girls) on the Voxx label (``It's the NOW sound, it's what's happening!'')
