“Make Believe” #28 10/25/1969

From the “before they were famous” file (sort of), Wind was a studio group fronted by Tony Orlando. He had a 1961 hit with “Halfway To Paradise” but by now, Tony was working for Clive Davis at CBS Music. When this fell off the charts, he recorded a track as a favor for a couple of friends. The song was “Candida,” his boss looked the other way when it was billed as being by Dawn, and the rest is history.
