My apologies. I did not know Shel had died. Just by
coincidence, I happened to recite "Sarah Sylvia..." to my mom
this past weekend just in joking around about garbage.
Couldn't resist it!

It's definitely lifted from the original USA record (you know the echoey
version). It doesn't just sound similar, it's Identical.
The Ventures version is in clean stereo. The edit from the lifted Mono intro
to their version sticks out a mile.
I've played them together at the same time and they phase. ( I know I'm sad
! :-) )
