We were introduced to this song by that little ol' band from Red River New Mexico, Three Faces West. It appeared on their 'Hold Up' album released in 1972. No one could match their recording of this song; to us, it was perfect in every way. The story goes that John Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas wrote this song one night after some heavy drinking but never remembered writing it. Turns out a friend was rolling tape and passed the song on to Judy Collins, who recorded it in 1964. Phillips claimed he got a check in the mail for a song 'he never heard before!' Oh well, we're happy Three Faces recorded it and we were able to add it to our set long ago. It has always been a crowd favorite.
