  1. This is one of my favorite songs from what I still think of as the 60s. I’ve always been surprised that it didn’t make it higher in the charts. Maybe people were turned off by the cover of the single, which is ghastly imo, and totally out of character for a band who otherwise put so much thought and effort into their album covers back then.
