Happy Jack

~ Release by The Who (see all versions of this release, 21 available)

Annotation

The original US release of the The Who's A Quick One, re-titled partly because of the success of the single Happy Jack and partly because Decca objected to the double entendre in the original title. In order to include Happy Jack, the cover of Martha & the Vandellas' Heat Wave was dropped.
