Yes, me too. I wonder what they did when they performed it live after the record got into the charts.

Happy accidents abound all over art and recorded music.

I seem to remember John Phillips saying that it was Denny coming in early by accident but the final outcome was the same. The mistake worked so well that it was kept.

I had the good fortune to see the film "The Wrecking Crew" at the Mill Valley Film festival last year. It is an amazing film. The scene where the bass player plays the part to the Age of Aquarius alone and then the rest of the original is blended in is worth the price of admission alone. Tommy Tedesco was a monster, as were all of the other members of the crew.

The film goes from one top hit to the next, making royalty fees a nightmare. I understand they are doing fund raising to try to release the film as a documentary. If you get the chance to see it, I highly recommend it. If you know someone in the business that can help get the producers a break on the royalties for this truly historic film, please....
