This disc was waxed by members of the Wrecking Crew that included Glen Campbell on guitar. Beach Boy Bruce Johnson and Terry Melcher, Doris Day's son, were on the vocals. They released it under the name Saggitarius. It reached #70 on the Billboard Hot 100 and is an excellent example of the mid-60's LA sound.

I thought Campbell also sang the lead on that one? They get short shrift but another one of Melcher's productions, Paul Revere & The Raiders, are also a choice representation from the era.

Just crossed my mind after the reply, but if there's ever going to be anything close to Pet Sounds it'd be Odessey And Oracle.
