160MB MONO, THROUGH TWO CHANNELS FROM THE 1998 KID RHINO CD mega.nz/file/9IQUiTib#oqpltmsclf_GvdMmEFHr5mw6Cy7z7wHTO1WM-gfSmNIIf cartoon factory Hanna/Barbera's short-lived record label ibb.co/nm8KbwZ hadn't dissolved three-years' earlier at the time (in 1967): this, hypothetically, had good-enough writing/production quality to have qualified as a one-off single release in late-Summer of 1970. Even though Austin Roberts is, again, the [double tracked] lead vocalist (as well as the composer here): there is something very distinctly Boyce and Hart-like-sounding about this track. Not just because of Bobby Hart on keyboards and the Wes Farrell-instigated partnership between he and (the Bubblegum producer) Danny Janssen (whom, I suspect, DOES MAKE A BACKGROUND SINGING APPEARANCE -with Hart- on harmonies for this "Scooby chase song" --- it certainly ain't the milquetoast Bahler brothers!); the DRUMS are immediately more noticeable as being "Rock" and tightly played (vs. the haphazard-ness of Jazz session drummer Bob Crowder being employed on most of these other songs), because the (former) Boyce & Hart "Candy Store Prophets" band drummer Bill Lewis is used (the beat is nearly identical to B&H's "Out and About" from their first solo album TEST PATTERNS). Yes: the title is obviously a riff on EIGHT DAYS A WEEK (remembered, in the U.S., as a massive single in early-'65). ibb.co/Zfrj42tibb.co/7yWwJhZibb.co/C20RZj5
