The song was covered in 1969 by Black Sabbath and was released in England as the band's first single. The song also appeared on the European version of the band's debut album, Black Sabbath, though it was excluded from versions released in other markets and was replaced by its B-side, "Wicked World", on the American version of the album.

The song was not officially released in North America until 2002, when it was included on the compilation album Symptom of the Universe: The Original Black Sabbath 1970–1978. It was later included on another compilation album, "Black Sabbath: The Ultimate Collection", released in 2016.
