"Along Comes Mary"
(Tandyn Almer)
[promo copies co-credit Curt Boettcher]
Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese _From The Original Master
Tapes_ CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
This was the first national hit for the group, and established the
"sound" of THE ASSOCIATION. So unique was the arrangement that it was
explored in depth on a television special by Leonard Bernstein.
Intro:
[rhythm guitar plays xxxx55 (implicit Am/D9) on beats 2 and 4]
[fuzz guitar (left channel) doubled with electric bass; clean guitar
(right channel) plays octave higher, doubled with acoustic bass]:
