I remember this got lot of play on WSDM in Chicago when it was new - great station "the station with the girls" back when there weren't that many women on the air. Skip Prokop was also in the precursor group The Paupers that had some interesting rhythms.

THEY STILL PLAY IT ON THE RADIO NOW & THEN.

Can anyone post "8 Miles High?" -- Paul Hoffert's arrangement included the strings, horns and some of the tightest vocals I'd ever heard.
Lighthouse actually put out two albums prior to 'One Fine Morning', at which point they 'cracked' the charts. Comparing Lighthouse to Chicago is unfair in that they just happened to be rock bands with horns. But Lighthouse also had a great string section! This band was more a mini-orchestra with a jazz pianist, a rock guitarist, funky bassist, and very adept drummer in Skip Prokop, who also penned this tune.

One of my all-time favorite bands! Saw them at Virginia Tech back in 1971 when I was a sophomore there. They had the place rocking! My hands still hurt from clapping. I'm still a little hoarse from singing along to all their great tunes. Thanks for the post!
