1967

From the back cover: Tom and Don play all the guitar parts. Tom plays all bass and sitar parts. Marty plays all drum, tambourine, conga, cowbell, finger cymbal, triangle and gong parts, assisted, when he hasn't a free hand, by Bobby Gregg, Buddy Saltzman, Ray Barretto and the like. Michael plays all keyboard parts except when, all too often, John Simon feels like playing. Also assisting are brass, string and woodwind players from the International Brotherhood of Brindle Makers Marching Band & Chowder Society.

From Billboard - February 18, 1967: The "Red Rubber Ball" group scored on the charts with their first album, and this well-balanced program should do equally well. "Please Don't Ever Leave Me," "I'm Happy Just To Dance With You" and their current hit "I Wish You Could Be Here" are enhanced by their smooth vocal blend and top arrangements.
