Some classic sunshine pop:
The Millennium was a collaboration between superproducer Gary Usher and pop maestro Curt Boettcher. The group's only album, Begin, was released in 1968.
============================
A later incarnation of the Peppermint Trolley Company would achieve a weird sort of immortality by recording the first season Brady Bunch theme song.
The song they perform here is certainly my favorite Paul Williams composition.
============================
The Sunshine Company would hit the top 40 once, with "Back On The Street Again" in 1967. This record would follow a few months later.
Could this song have been heard by a certain English musician well-known for being "heavily influenced" by other artists' compositions?
