Mike,
Nice job.I don't know why but I was actually surprised at how many knew
the tune.
Thanks. I suppose I am too, but that may be mostly because enjoyment ofthat entire canon was such a hidden pleasure for so many. There is aeven type of fan out there who bemoans the official release as it hasmade their 'inside knowledge' into something more public. A pretty daftattitude, I may say.
Incidentally:

This is print slick from the 1967 run that was going to be thealbum...but never was. It's signed by Frank Holmes, the artist and wasgiven to me a few years ago in payment for a favour or two I did forpeople connected to the band. I've been offered substantial sums forit, but it's going nowhere. Incidentally, Frank Holmes only got to seethe live version of 'Smile' because he was working as an usher at thetheatre where they were playing.
