I agree 100%. I've saved all of my old 45s & will post more when I get some spare time. Thanx 4 the rating & comment!

If you don't like this one, you just don't like music.

This hit by Harpers Bizarre was the 99th #1 song on what is now Billboard's Adult Contemporary Charts. It was also the first #1 song on this chart in the year, 1968.

Sure wish there was a good quality version of this.

@prsguiatplayer It was probably on SHINDIG.

My Dad is 71 and use to listen to this song he said he loved it. One hit they ever had.

I can't remember the show, but Harpers Bizarre sang this song atop a locomotive engine as it come on to stage - was really very well done. Have never been able to find that video.

Thanks for posting!

...do another number down in Carolina.

Utter jaw dropping perfection. But that's what can be expected from Harpers Bizarre. Few artists (if any) could deliver the harmony-laden dreamscape better than they could.

I had this same scratched up 45 when I was a kid loved it then love it now scratches and all. They made an appearance on Ed Sullivan singing this and riding a little model train on the set. I'd love to be able to find it.

Thanks so much for posting

Cheers

Good show smetro44

I don't mind the record scratching, but could you re-dub it with a patch cord? That might clear up the audio a bit. Still enjoyed the song. Thanks for posting.

My dad recorded most of this on cassette tape off the radio back in 1972. Same bassy audio effect of a microphone next to a speaker. :)

Something like 25 (or 30? god help me!) I heard a version of "Simon Smith and His Amazing Dancing Bear" by (you guessed it) Harpers Bizarre. Somehow and for some reason, I went looking for it tonight. Haven't found it, but have rediscovered Randy Newman and, well, this ...

Still looking for the bear, but wallowing in what's around right now. Thank you.
