I agree. My absolutely favorite version of this. I grew up on this song and to this day love it.

I'm glad these guys have been resurrected on YouTube. It's hard to find their albums on CD. I agree this is the best version of this song. And they also do the best version of Tambourine Man and Last Thing on My MInd.

Great song, great double album. Many of their albums are available on CD, and are well worth the buying.
When I saw them many many years ago, Mitchell introduced the trio, with "My name is Chad Mitchell; I do *not* like to be referred to as 'the short blond one in the middle.'"

I love this version of the song. I have searched everywhere to find a place to buy and download it. Thanks for sharing.

I came to their music freshman year at Wooster College, Ohio, fall of 1963. Just the best.

@sandinmyears1 Oh yes, that one too! It was a Saturday morning standard in our household!

@rev21v3n4 - I grew up on this song also. "The Marvelous Toy" by the CMT too.

@stefanlofgren - Mostly right ...after McGuinn and before Denver. McGuinn never sang with them - he backed them on banjo and guitar from 1960-62; Denver joined when Mitchell left in 1965.
The players here are (correctly) Chad Mitchell (tenor), Joe Frazier (baritone), and Mike Kobluk (second baritone). Instruments - Paul Prestopino and Jacob Ander, guitars; Bill Frigo, bass.

The original Singin' Our Minds album is just fantastic....one of the best cuts is Four Strong Winds...the harmonies on that track were clear and sharp. DuBerry Gone Again was also a great cut...
I think this is all the original trio before John Denver, McGuinn or anyone else for that matter. Joe Fraser, Mike Kobluk and Chad Mitchell (the tenor)...
