This did come out as a CD in UK and Austraila under the Smartweed label, extremely hard to find I had one sent to me from sydney for $23 worth every penny of it, nice to have on digital without the pops, snaps and cracks that you get from the albums, check out Amazon I see there is a used one for sale for $13.99 but it ships from Korea.Should make a video showing the CD cover and CD itself also.
I would love to have a CD of this record. I won a copy back in the late 60's at a easter egg hunt (I was 9 or 10 years old). And I bet I listened to it maybe a thousand times. I still know every word by heart almost 50 years later! I guess that says alot of the impression it made on me. I am so glad I found on you tube a real blast from the past.
My brother picked this out of the bargain bin at a K Mart way back in the 1970s and we fell in love with the music. No idea of where the record went to. Has anyone every put this on a cd?
Got to see them live in 1970 at a tiny club in Dallas call the Rubaiyat. Very enjoyable concert and the guys were nice enough to share some "tunes" with us in the parking lot between sets. Used to own the vinyl which has long since disappeared into the ages but did score a bootleg CD which is still played quite frequently.

Guess we'll always wonder what the original melody was, the drunk night he wrote it. Turned out pretty damned good, anyway.
