 Collins' Oldies Website: Gary Lewis and the Playboys
Here is a third song in which, if you listen only to the left speaker, you hear Gary but not the other Playboys.
Gary had by this time been drafted; this was an apt song to record just a few days before departing for the Army.
Gary starts the song by counting down from 10 to 1, as is done when a rocket is launched.

In the separate Gary Lewis interview portion of the DVD, they show a part from the same program with Gary and his Dad performing the same song in the same way.
It includes all the hit songs that Gary Lewis is connected with in addition to brief comments between songs by Gary regarding the upcoming song.

 Pop - Gary Lewis & the Playboys - Greatest Hits [Curb] - Gary Lewis & Playboys free mp3 full albums download
As a newcomer to the world of Gary Lewis and the Playboys (an Eighties child am I), I must say that this music has really grown on me.
My father bought me this album about a year ago, because I had the song "Everybody Loves a Clown" stuck in my head (and that's the kind of guy he is).
That is a song that even if it was released a year later in 1967 I think it would still be excellent.
