Thank you : )

Outstanding, bombastic production. And true to form, the Caravelles rose to the occasion and executed brilliantly. Love it!

Discovered this song on Pandora one day (I think I was playing a Francoise Hardy "station". Love it.

I love this song - but admit I have no idea what it's about. The lyrics aren't all that audible. Are they printed anywhere?

Lynne Hamilton is my wife! She also sung "On the Inside" , the theme song from 'Prisoner' , the television show, which gained number one on the Australian and English charts in 1979 (won an ARIA award in Australia) and in 1989 in England (went to number 2 and 3 , and she appeared on top of the pops). Anyway, I love my wife, Lynne Hamilton's voice to this day, she is my Angel and has produced many albumns since. She is amasing! Tim

A friend just informed me that this rendition of the song was here. I got a real kick out of it. I wrote it back in 1965 (I think), maybe 1964. Anyway, thank you to funkmeisterF for putting it on Youtube. Many thanks again.

Sincerely,

Bruce Murdoch

@TBM1066 I LOVE this song!!! I could listen to it several times a day. Thanks for writing it. Do you have any other songs floating around on YT with similar jingle-jangle wall-of-sound harmonic fabulousness?!?! Please recommend!

Whoa, I clicked on this expecting to hear a folky cover of the Dylan tune of the same name, but instead, out pours this massive wall of echo! Thumbs up!

[mndandy]

Genius! Massive! Where do I get the German pic sleeve?!

[funkmeisterF]

If you search the internet for undercoveragent and picture sleeves there is a guy in europe that does all sorts of repro picture sleeves...they're a tad dear mind you!
