"Mirage" #10 6/17/1967

Here's one from Tommy James and the Shondells that came about as the result of a happy accident. They were at the studio when co-producer Bo Gentry accidentally loaded a tape of their previous single, "I Think We're Alone Now" backwards on the reel-to-reel. The group liked it, and "Mirage" was pretty much written on the spot as it sounds like "Alone Now" turned inside out.
