It was the Kansas song but no big deal, I just hadn’t heard that the Eagles had done that song.
By 1967 there was a thread in American culture that compared the current era to the Roaring Twenties due to outlandish clothing, wild behavior, sexual freedom and drugs. Parallel 23 by the Association from their Insight Out album laid it out perfectly.
Harpers Bizarre was a band recording for Warner Brothers that took songs from the era and worked them up in soft pop arrangements. They specialized in Cole Porter tunes, and this gives you an idea of how a song can be adapted to new approaches.
It starts with Cole Porter singing the introduction from his own 1934 recording, and then the band comes in with a typical mid-Sixties middle-of-the-road treatment.
I guess they didn’t. I took someone’s word for it on YouTube and downloaded as Eagles. I’ll fix it. If I do now the link is messed up. Most people don’t pay attention anyhow. :)
