Really a great song. If you would care to visit my channel you will se that I've uploaded a tribute video to Colours. Not this song, but another from the same album. Have fun.
i would love to hear "love heals" again [i think that was the title. the refrain was "do you love one another?"]. it got a lot of air play when it came out. it was on the flip side of their 45 with "bad day" but i cannot locate it on youtube. do you have it?
Never heard this song before, and I understand it goes back, way back to those days of The British Invasion, of music. How come it wasn't played here in Vancouver Canada (1968 ). I was constantley listening to the radio if I wasn't working/watching tv..I knew the Top 40, but this # illuded me! Perhaps it was played for a few....well anyway there's always something new on youtube & it appears I got some catching up to do. thx4 postin'
I picked up this LP back in a cut-out bin in the mid-70's...wore the grooves out of it. This track is a great indicator of the rest of the record...a definite must for lovers of the Beatlesque! A bit of trivia about this band & album: a short bit of one of their songs can be heard in an episode of the late 60's sit-com, "Family Affair" when Buffy & Jody are watching a TV show with a popular music group playing. My personal favorite track on the above album is "Cataleptic".
back in the day, my wife, my sister, her husb, and i played bridge almost every night after work, drank iced tea, smoked pot, and listened to colours and emitt rhodes. great to hear bad day at blackrock. ordered complilation, but it is delayed.
Songwriters Jack Dalton & Gary Montgomery formed Colours and on the second and final album (Atmosphere), members of The Moon were the backing musicians...

I've been searching for this song for months but all I could remember was the chorus of - "Bad day at black rock, baby, bad day today."
Haven't heard this since the '60s or '70s
Nice one.

God, I love this song! Every once in a while I try to see if I can get it somewhere digitally, but I've never been able to. Thanks for this.
