I remember buying their LP album when they put this song out. That was many years ago - probably the latter 1960's I'm guessing. Wow, memory lane....

Funny, how some singers were your favorite during a different period of time...I guess the memories that are attached to them make them special, too. My musical taste seems to be always evolving. I would have never believed that I would like opera in the 1970's...now I really can appreciate it. Go figure.
