Original Liberty Records #55836
45 RPM Vinyl

Debut 12/11/65
Peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The original melody was featured on the famous Alka Seltzer advertisements seen on TV at the time.

Like many of the records I post, this really sounds great on vinyl - much better than MP3's!

What ever happened to instrumentals???

One thing's for sure... modern music will NEVER have cool, catchy tunes like this any more. ESPECIALLY since cRAP has poisoned everything.

The Wrecking Crew in disguise

This was my very first 45, still have it. I got to pick one free 45 when I joined the 45 club at our local mall record shop, which got you discounts on the top 40 every Saturday. Most of teh choices looked lame but I found this one,

@msirull real rap stopped existing in the 90s. i think the main problem is that people use computers too damn much in music produciton. theres not as much human talent in music today as ever before.

@rockerforlife2001 Except that not one member of Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds plays on this record. The T-Bones were L.A. studio musicians and members of the loosely knit "Wrecking Crew." When a band had to be formed to create a touring unit under the name T-Bones, the basis for H,JF&R came together.

Didn't realize this came from a Alka-Seltzer commercial until i found out about it 10 years after i first heard this tune on the radio on an Oldies station in Chicago a couple of decades ago. Thanks for the memories!

Spencer, have you seen whopfrog2's video of the same song. The label in his video is quite different from this one (which is the one I remembered and owned). Do you have any information on the differences?
