Hummhh... that said allot of Tyrone’s records were all derivative from “change my mind” in the first place.. I think I’m actually starting to loose my listening marbles sometimes... Yes same song and composer's credit.

The Yank Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Actually, it's not a theory at all, in the 1st chapter (maybe even on the 1st page) of the book "Louie, Louie", Richard Berry admits to using the opening riff of "El Loco Cha Cha" for "Louie, Louie". I'll admit that the lyrics of "Havana Moon" probably also influenced Richard also. Edited November 25, 2019 by The Yank 1

I'd bet the Kingsmen must of heard that as well, theirs sounds much more like it.
