"7 And 7 Is" #33 9/24/1966

The highest charting record for the group Love. According to Wikipedia, this tune was covered by the likes of Rush, Alice Cooper, the Ramones and many others. Love was one of the ultimate 60's underground bands - not a lot of commercial success but very influential. They lived in a communal house called "The Castle." Far out, man.

However, their version of LITTLE RED BOOK is still their "signature song".
Sort of along the same line as LUCKY MAN vs. FROM THE BEGINNING for Emerson Lake and Palmer.
The song that clinically "made the top-40" was only on the charts for a brief "blink-of-the-eye" while the one in the top-50 spent weeks on the charts, and became a "local hit" on far more radio stations.
