Looking for something on YouTube I came across this 1968 tune from It's A Beautiful Day. I hadn't heard it in many years and it captures well the spirit and sound of the times. It takes me back. Led by David LaFlamme on electric violin and vocals, accompanied by his wife Linda on vocals, the band had a unique sound. Listen to the violin solo beginning around 3:55.
I saw the band perform at the Fillmore East in May 1969 as one of the opening acts for The Who when they premiered Tommy in the U.S.
Beautiful tune. I was a flight surgeon in Savannah when this first came out.
