Given Darcy’s version was quite similar to how Jack White covered it later, I’ve always liked to believe someone gave Mr White a copy of Mr Clay’s EP at some point, which inspired the Stripes version.
Also, a minor point of note: I’d always thought he was an American living in New Zealand, but wikipedia tells me was an Aucklander that spent a few months in the US and Oz, so that’s my thing I learned today.
