I never knew there was a vocal version until I picked up the Acklin 2-fer (UK) last year; when I first heard it I was pleasantly surprised.EDIT: Yep, I know that one! I had the instrumental version on one of my other playlists (perhaps on Qobuz?) but should add it to this large Oldies playlist. Very familiar melody!
Don't know much about this band other than they were deeply Beatles influenced -- and all the more were recorded at Abbey Road by the Beatles' engineers (Norman Smith, Geoff Emerick). [1969]
Liz Anderson had a successful career as a Nashville songwriter -- to the point that she began cutting her own LPs. (She is Liz I'll-Never-Promise-You-a-Rose-Garden Anderson's mother). [1968]
Like the 5th Dimension, The Association's vocal acumen is immediately recognizable -- partly due to sharing the same vocal arranger, Bob Alcivar, 1968-70 (Bob also arranged the Sandpiper's Come Saturday Morning LP). [1967]
