A beautiful song - I like his rendering of his own work. Shortly before that, he wrote the songs on Richard Harris's debut album, "A Tramp Shining." I liked some of the songs on that album. Not so much, "MacArthur Park", but "Dancing Girl" and "A Tramp Shining."
"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"
Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

The Fifth Dimension had recorded Aquarius from Hair, but the group decided that the song was too short and just didnt work as a single. They then recorded Let the Sunshine In as a suffix to the song and released it that way. It came in at #2 this week.
The 5th Dimension: Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In
I was a bit disappointed. In Hair, the song The Flesh Failures starts as a solo and morphs into a chorus (1:13). Then, when you least expect it, the chorus slips into Let the Sunshine In in 8-part harmony (2:30), and its one of the most overwhelming moments in an American musical, especially when you see it live. Some creative over-dubbing could have duplicated that effect. Here is the original for comparison.

Tommy Roe had started out seven years earlier as a Buddy Holly imitator. He had picked up a few hits in 1966, but now he had his biggest success, marking out his territory in the bubble gum genre. This came in at #1 this week.

And so we end one week of music history 44 years ago. See you tomorrow night! Cue the Rockumentary theme!
