Windy reminds me too much of the theme from 'Rainbow'. One of their worst tracks, but ironically their best known.

Fantastic singles group. Many great calls so far, Mary, Never, Pandora; a personal fave is their version of One Too Many Mornings, the voices slay me every time. And ' Everything That Touches You' ! I don't know why it often gets omitted from their best work. It's the most stirring thing they ever did. The way the harmonies keep peaking lifts the spirits to celestial heights! Yep, fabulous.

I buried it in the links I put up earlier, because the question came from Coan - and I suspect that he’ll find it too sweet. But yes - it is gorgeous. I love The Association. I think there is something kind of nervy and exciting about their aggressive squareness. But ultimately, I just think the musical and vocal arrangements are incredible.

I forget where I read this (maybe in the liners to the mono Birthday CD?) but apparently in Laurel Canyon at the time - not a milieu especially noted for self-restraint - they were notorious for their hard partying.
Certainly bassist Brian Cole's heroin overdose (in 1972) is one of the more whoa, wouldn't have seen THAT coming rock deaths.
