Description
"Louie Louie" started as an innocent ditty about a lovesick Jamaican sailor. But The Kingsmen turned it into one of the most censored and celebrated songs to capture the American imagination. Bestselling author Marsh presents a comprehensive, entertaining social history of the raucous rock anthem, including the actual lyrics. Photos.
