Time For "Louie Louie"

Here is the original version, from 1957 by the song's composer Richard Berry.  It was released on Flip Records, the Los Angeles-based label that is also best remembered for a handful of hit recordings from the Six Teens.  This was also the label that brought legal action against Sam Phillips which forced the owner of Sun Records to shutter his Memphis-based same-named country-oriented label.
