Roxy:
Yes, you are correct as "Sara Smile" was later on.
Memory is an odd thing, but with your prod I now recall where I was living when it (the song) was often/continuously played on radio, which would place it to the mid 70's.
Never owned any of their LP's, but this particular song (as well as a handful of others) have been earwigs that live with me to this present day.
In the late 70's I did an off the cuff instrumental of "Sara Smile", in a dive bar on East Sunset in Hollywood during a band break, and the audience loved it (I was backed by a killer keyboard player who also did not take smoke/other breaks).
This became a regimen @ this bar and the keyboard player eventually brought in a few Beatle'ish songs to blend with "Sara Smile".
One was "Baby I'm Amazed" and I don't recall the title of the other, but LOVE was in the chorus.
We also did a LOUNGE version of "Over the Rainbow".
I was always a mediocre musician, but sometimes had moments when playing with stellar/IMO musicians.
What's your opinion of the version (from Daryl's House) with the young girl from Fritz's band?
Based upon his series "Daryl's House" I have gained the utmost respect for Daryl Hall, which is odd (for me) as I've always been an R&B fanatic, though apparently with limited exposure to later works.
I'll have to think about other artists and Jeff Beck/Clapton would perhaps be a good place to start.
