Big Mike: The In Crowd

Which version of the song did you like? More than a dozen artists have covered "The In Crowd." If you're our age, you'll remember the chart hits done in early 1965 by Dobie Gray and later in the same year by the Ramsey Lewis Trio. Acts as disparate as the Ventures, the Mamas and the Papas, Bryan Ferry, Joe Jackson, and Quincy Jones have also recorded the tune.

I'm in with the in crowd and I know what the in crowd knows....
