That's one of the best hippie band names ever.

The singer is real similar to Debbie Harry, though she came along much later obviously..

The song's average for the time, but the band uniforms are hard to ignore. Or forget.

'Jangle' music. I never heard that term before, but I understood it as soon as the music started. It's a pleasant little song, but their harmony's not arranged all that well, and I don't think it's the mastery. Maybe it's because I'm expecting Beatles vocals.

Thanks for posting this

The lead singer must be playing the tambourine. Whoever it is, they're standing RIGHT NEXT to the mic.

great stuff!

A few comments here bagging this recording , but I disagree , for although it is by no means brilliant , it is nonetheless pleasantly melodic and better than a lot of the cachophonous , amelodic , shrieking and screaming BS that typifies popular music these days .

This sucks.

I'd love to hear the B-Side "Burn The Midnite Oil" if you don't mind posting it.

Is it possible to post the B-side as well "In The Rain"?

What is the b-side?

Paul Hohenstein

Does anyone know if there is a difference in mastering or sound quality between the 45 on Phalanx and the one on RCA, or did RCA use the same metal plates?

Beautiful I going hear every day I want know the words

This sounds like a 1965 garage tune, not something from "67. I hear a bit of the melody of The Beatles" song, "If I Needed Someone" The odd sound is that this sounds like an off key Beatles" tune. Even though the lo-fi mastering gave it a unrefined sound, as if it was actually recorded in a garage, it still came out a jangler.

Wow! An autographed copy!

This song is awesome!

Highly reminiscent of The Beatles' "If I Needed Someone"

Love it

It’s Cool how the 🥁 drums Start off which makes this a really cool 😎 tune 🎵. This sounds like early 70’s music 🎼 like 1970-72 😊great song being that’s a 1st 🥇 for me. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Has a bit of the Hollies and Zombies it’s a great Garage Rock 🪨 song 🎧.

righteous. crazy drums and heartbreaking vocal

too sentimental, just too much, just right and i love it

Nice record! This coulda been a hit. Any idea if it did anything in the Indianapolis radio region?

The writers of this song also penned the hits "Happy Together" [#1], "She'd Rather Be with Me" and "She's My Girl" for the Turtles; and "Celebrate" for Three Dog Night.

The group's name came from a Steve Allen TV show bit inspired by popular groups at the time (1967) with names Steve thought had comically nonsensical word juxtapositions, such as Strawberry Alarm Clock and the Electric Prunes. Doing a Mad Libs-type thing, the audience favored putting together "stark naked" and "car thieves," and Steve offered the name to any actual rock group looking for a new identity.

A beautifully produced harmony driven slice of heavenly psych and really loving the swirling farfisa organ vibes😎✌️🎶

Nice! 😸

to jorge <3

Yea, I know, but I still like it.

Always loved this side!

Russ Sanders was a genius! All the Endd 45s are quite good!

Nice tune ..

I am not upset at the music I’m upset I haven’t heard The Upsetters

very Zombies and taste of early Hollies

The blurry photos of this band performing live really add a lot to hearing this song, and I can't explain it. It's almost like I can see them playing live in my mind's eye

classic teener. I think The Reflections did the vocal backing on this single

Fab

Total moody organ winner!

Reminiscent of the Zombies' 'She's Not There' (to my ears, at least). I disagree with the percussion arrangement, too; it feels to me like it's stumbling.

A very Cool 😎 🎵 tune!!!

Mmmm gravity falls

WOW what A COOL tune

Luckily, no one took a songwriting credit here😅

Good one.

Great for a soul tune 🎵 reminiscent to James Brown.

Awesome! Any release planned for this?

😊😊😊💗💗💕

I have to doubt this, because of the obscurity of this song and band, but it immediately makes me think of the Travelling Wilburys' 'Tweeter And The Monkey Man.' Although the lyrics distinctly echo Hoyt Axton's 'The Pusher.'
