"The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)" #13 4/1/1967

Written by Paul Simon and done first by Simon and Garfunkel, this was the one major hit for Harpers Bizarre. The arrangement was by Leon Russell, as they inserted an a cappella vocal section and a baroque woodwind part. Group member Ted Templeman became a record producer, working with the Doobie Brothers and Van Halen on all their early albums, as well as co-producing Van Morrison's "Tupelo Honey" LP.
