This first hit by The Association still has me running to grab my bass. (Leonard Bernstein admired the song, and included a short analysis of it in the "What is a Mode?" episode of his Young People's Concerts series.)

Original studio version with Jerry Scheff playing electric bass. He backed Elvis and is the father of Jason Scheff who plays bass and sings with Chicago. There are two basses on the original, I don't remember who played the upright bass to "double" the bass sound.)

Alright. Just rummaging. Found this 45. I'll just post the Youtube link. It got my attention because I always liked the tune and, just a few years ago, a band playing at a neighbor's outdoor party played it. Oh, and JEK, the Outsiders came from some place called Ohio.

Gotta get back to some "real" stuff here. One more favorite (a French production

The Outsiders remind me, in some ways, of Joey Dee and the Starliters and the folks who went on to form the Young Rascals.

Neighbor and I are clearing out some crud after a tree cutting out front. We see our new neighbors out about looking at their new home. We walked over. Nice folks. Her name is Nadine. We broke into a chorus of:

Sweet dreams! On to the Doobies, It Keeps You Running...

Big Chicago and Doobies fan.
