“I Met Her In Church” #37 10/12/1968

A gospel-tinged tune (no surprise, given the title) from the Box Tops. After the band broke up in 1970, lead singer Alex Chilton was offered (and declined) a spot with Blood, Sweat & Tears after David Clayton-Thomas left. Alex later formed the critically acclaimed group Big Star. “Critically acclaimed” is another way of saying “they’re good but couldn’t sell any records.”
