“Laughing” #10 8/23/1969

The second US Top 10 single for the Guess Who, and their second #1 in the Great White North. It was written by Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings in about 10 minutes. Bachman left the group in less than a year, partly due to his conversion to Mormonism. The jazzy B-side just missed the Top 20 in a few months. Clip is taken from a CBC-TV variety show starring Canadian comics Wayne and Shuster. It’s a Pop-Up Video; no stinkin’ lip-sync here.
