Featuring the timeless smash hits "Red Rubber Ball" and "Turned Down Day", but wait, there's a lot more of the same...
IN stunning STEREO with the rich, warm speaker separation effects, which greatly differs from the mono issue comes this BEAUTIFUL collectible original 1966 first pressing VINYL on the famed 360 Sound Columbia label...
Talk about having all the breaks at the right time: Beatles' manager Brian Epstein handling your career, John Lennon giving your group a new name, touring as opening act for The Beatles, being produced by John Simon (famed producer of Janis Joplin and of The Band) and having Paul Simon toss songs your way.
The Cyrkle had it all, including six Hot 100 singles between May 1966 and September 1967.
Among those hits, a Top 10 smash with their very first single, a gorgeous piece of pop written by Paul Simon (of Simon & Garfunkel fame) that was called "Red Rubber Ball."
That tune rose to # 2 on the Billboard magazine Hot 100 Singles chart in the summer of 1966 which in turn got the an album deal, and here it is:
Thee LP, titled Red Rubber Ball, was recorded in the spring of 1966 under producer John Simon, utilizing the same lyrical folk-rock sound found on the 45 disc. It rose to number 47 on the charts and a second single, "Turn Down Day," was issued in the early summer of 1966, reaching number 16 and thus completing the group's stay in the pop chart annals. They continued despite several personnel changes -- Earl Pickens left for medical school and was replaced by Mike Losekamp, but just as suddenly as the group emerged, the group's fortunes gradually ebbed coupled with the death of Brian Epstein in the summer of 1967, and that, interrupted the interest there was in continuing with the group.
They did record some interesting and ambitious songs during their final year of work, including "Red Chair Fade Away," an early song by the Bee Gees. During the group's final days together, they contributed songs -- including some very spaced-out psychedelia to an independently financed dramatic film that was eventually released as a sexploitation vehicle under the title The Minx.
