Now I’ll never get this song out of my poor head today! I’d rather have I Who Have Nothing, In-a-gadda-da-vida, or even Seasons in the Sun there. Why, MacArthur Park would be like a cavalry rescue!

Tnx for the link - without a doubt the coolest music ever written! And I’m not exactly from that era.

I was first exposed to this kind of music in the 80s when I bought an old reel-to-reel player and a bunch of reels. The player and reels are long since gone, along with the cassettes I transferred them to.
