The Sidewalk Skipper Band were a US band from Milwaukee Wisconsin who recorded a couple 45's in 1968. Strawberry Tuesday was a flip to their debut 45. This band apparently was big in my home town of Chicago in 1968. Not really much else known about this band....more into would be appreciated.
i can't explain how i got here - but i saw the name and just wondered who they were. I think they are really good. I'm from the UK sounds psychadellic.

This band is covered in my book, "Do You Hear That Beat - Wisconsin Pop/Rock in the 50's & 60's. It was a studio project rather than a gigging band and they had a 3rd single on Milwaukee's Teen Town label. The main man was Brian Balestrieri.
