The Blues Magoos perform "Pipedream" on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour 1967.
It's been a happy day
Try not to spoil it, now
Please don't get hung up that way.
Oh, he's not the boy for you
And I think you know it, too
Kiss him and don't start to cry.
Cause you're having a pipe dream, an ordinary pipe dream
(Now you see him flashing right before your eyes)
You're having a sweet dream, a lifelong sweet dream.
(I'm the one who loves you, can't yu see?)
Pi-i-ipe dream
Pi-i-ipe dream
Come back to reality.
Now, in your mind there's always me
That's the way it's gonna be
Kiss and tell him good bye.
I say you won't have to dream tonight
Tomorrow may be clear and bright
I think the pipe's going out.
Cause you're having a pipe dream, an ordinary pipe dream
(Now you see him flashing right before your eyes)
You're having a sweet dream, a lifelong sweet dream
(I'm the one who loves you, can't you see it's me?)
Pi-i-ipe dream
Pi-i-ipe dream
Come back to reality.
(HEY!) Come back to reality.

@rch9000 Wrong. The bands who performed on The smothers Bros. programs brought the backing tracks (w/o vocals) so that the band could sing live. The Blues Magoos were not lip synching, it was live. Only the music was a recording.

Great quality, thanks for this upload !! :)

I've got this on a Mercury records 7". had it in both of the full sized jukeboxes I have owned. Blues Magoos.. Hell Yeah!

"You're gonna take... a trip."

I guess ol' lip-synchs are more enjoyable with live vocal tracks!

The lead guitatist Mike Esposito lives outside Woodstock with his own bike repair shop. You can find Ralph Scala on FB.

One of my defining moments hearing them do this LIVE on the Smothers' show. The guitarist was excellent, using an echoplex on the ending. The band is tight and pretty advanced for the time.

@SilverDollar79, watch the singer at 2:05. He moves his mouth away from the mic to look at the keyboard, and you don't hear him sing the word "be." He's clearly not lip-synching for a moment like that to happen.

Great song, but stalled at #60, Spring 1967. Were there really 59 better songs getting
airplay at the time? These guys got shafted. R &R Hall of Shame, indeed.
