"Baby Make Your Own Sweet Music" by Jay and the Techniques

Jay and the Techniques were a rock and soul band from Pennsylvania that had a couple hits in 1967, but should have had a sustained career that made them a household name. This underrated group is remembered for the lost gem, "Apples, Peaches, Pumpkin Pie," which went to #6. Their follow-up singles, "Keep The Ball Rollin'" and "Strawberry Shortcake" hit #14 and #39, respectively. 

In 1968, "Baby Make Your Own Sweet Music" stalled at #64 and became their last chart appearance. What a shame. Such a terrific song; not sure why this group didn't keep it up well into the 70s. Help yourself to their greatest hits to see what I mean.
