Cool, didn't know about the Beach Boys connection. Jacks was actually in an earlier band with his wife, Susan, and they had a monster hit, "Which Way You Going Billy" ..so he was "there" before.

To underscore your point, add "Quick Joey Small" by the Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus ...created by record producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeff Katz...and as I understand it, the Ohio Express was actually their band as well.

I suppose examples could take on a thread of their own smile
