Currently listening to Bruce Springsteen ~ Tunnel of Love.
It's the live vocal performances of David Lindley and especially Rosemary Butler that make the Running on Empty version so good.Long before Jackson Browne brought out his well known version of 'Stay' a British band named The Hollies put this song on the b-side of one of their singles in 1963.......
It's also the effect created by tacking it onto the end of The Load Out that transforms it into something much more than it otherwise is (imo).It's the live vocal performances of David Lindley and especially Rosemary Butler that make the Running on Empty version so good.

Hi dino,Kottan, long before The Hollies, the version I heard as a teen was the one by the composer, Maurice Williams and his group The Zodiacs. By the way, Maurice wrote the song in 1953, when he was 15 years old.
