Goodbye Jimmy Greenspoon, it sure was nice knowing you...He played keyboards for Three Dog Night along with a myriad of other artists but died on Wednesday after battling a brain tumor. He was 67.
This was written by Randy Newman, the nephew of Academy Award-winning composer Lionel Newman. The song is about a party that left a "bad taste" in the writer's mouth. The drug scene was fairly new to American middle-class youth at that time.
This song has the distinction of being the very first #1 hit on the American Top 40 syndicated radio program. The show, hosted by Casey Kasem, became popular on AM radio throughout the world until its decline in the mid-1990s.
Here's some muppet #cheese with Paul Williams singing the song he wrote for them.

He also wrote "Out In The Country" and "Family Of Man." All three songs were last minute additions that wound up on the album and became hits.
