I assume you know this, but this is a manhattans cover. Linda Jones and the Mamselles do an answer record to this.

I'm not 100% certain that this is a cover. It sounds like it could easily come from the same session as their ABC release "How Could I Get Over A Fox LIke You", another Pointdexter Brothers song and released some time in autumn 1968. I say that because I wonder how likely it could be that a tiny independent could muster a Richard Tee conducted session to produce just the couple of masters on this rare 45. To me it seems more logical that this is a leftover of the ABC session.

The Manhattans version of the song is listed as being released December 1969 and charting January 1970. The Icemen's Ole-9 45 may well have been released in the wake of the Manhattans having a minor hit but I'm scetical that it's a cover in the true sense.
