Terry Kirkman, lead singer and founder of The Association, sadly passed away on Saturday, September 23, 2023. He wrote this song (along with others) and it's one of the greatest songs ever penned.

wow, Terry Kirkman passed away? Ohhhh no; he was AWESOME! Albeit i was only 5 - 7 yrs old in the 60s; i remember sooooooo many of these incredible songs; and TV shows; The Courtship of Eddie's Father; Bewitched, Family Affair, Bonanza, The Rifleman, Perry Mason, The Fugitive, Romper Room, Get Smart. There was Captain Kangaroo, Jumping Jack before Sesame Street... etc...

This record was produced by my dear friend and mentor, Gary S. Paxton. The story behind this record is interesting: It was recorded in Hollywood at Gary's studio, located in his house. In fact he made the entire house into a studio - along with all the house furnishings (much like the studio he had here in Nashville). The control room was located in an upstairs bedroom, with a hole in the floor so that he cold talk back to the musicians downstairs. That control room had the only 8 channel tape recorder in Hollywood at the time, of which he rented out to Capitol records often (Beach Boys, Sinatra, ect.) That machine is currently in his basement in Branson Missouri. (I've got photos of it). The musicians were all Gary's studio band. At the time they recorded this record, there were only two guys who consisted of the Association. The rest of them were hired to sing in the group on the road. This is a video of that group. The way they recorded this record (actually the entire album, which also features "Along Comes Mary") was very unusual. The drummer was in the dining room. The guitars were in the living room, and the vocals were recorded in the kitchen (which explains the kind-of "open room" sound of the vocals). I think the bells were recorded in a separate bedroom upstairs. If you listen to the original 1-inch master tape, you'll hear Gary yelling down the hole in the floor, "Tape's rolling..."

She was the most beautiful girl in our high school, and there was somewhere around 4500 of us. I had girlfriends in High School, but always thought about her. Never tried, that is the most pathetic part. She was in a different group and I was with the troublemakers, I loved them all. I always thought about her as I knew the lyrics were true, not going to be the one, etc. I was in Vietnam in a hole, in the rain, and this song came on the radio. I saw her face, and layed back. All of a sudden, I was not in VN anymore, I was in HS and she was walking past me in the hall. I didn't feel the rain anymore. I had a good life, a good lady and 4 kids and 5 grandchildren. No regrets there, but I always wonder, what if? If you have a desire, GO GET IT! Trying and failing is far better than living wondering.

I'm sure your "lady" is lovely. You had children with her. And grandchildren. You have more than most ever will. I think that if it were meant for you to be with her, you certainly would not have the life you have now. So don't wonder. It wasn't going to happen. She sounds honestly like a pleasant memory, that's all. And it got you through something rough and that's good, but that's all. Wishing you and your family all the best.

She hooked up with the star quarterback. They graduated, married, and he became an abusive drunk appliance salesman. The abuse led her into a depression. She eventually became addicted to prescription drugs, which led to harder street drugs and eventually to heroin. She finally divorced the guy and started working as a topless dancer till the drugs and age stole her youthful beauty. She became a cheap hooker, turning a trick for a high and a place to sleep for the night. Now she's in her 70s, living in a trailer park in Smyrna, Tennessee, living on welfare and food stamps, smoking cheap cigarettes and drinking cheap gin, watching game shows on a 24 inch television, and listening to the oldies station, remembering when she was the most beautiful girl in school, and wondering what happened to all those dreams from so long ago.... Does that make you feel better now?

Loved the Association over 45 years ago, still love them today! Brings back beautiful memories of a gentler time in the world; when neighbors helped and knew each other and music was like this. Yes, the war was going on; I served in the Air Force from '69 to '71, but the music of my generation's time was the best ever offered! Thanks for the memories!

Ricardo Alencar de Azambuja I would say there are fewer that can write music well today, but there are still those that can, that have the essence of the message they are trying to give captured, though some say anything less then classical, jazz or symphany is not good music, but most cant even play well if at all their insterment let alone be one of the people that is learned in playing abillity as well as degrees in the musical arts like professors, of sorts, that have the full mastery of theory, writting, and playing, and the genious to write about something with real meaning and not just for the money. there is noththing wrong with using all the tools but they ought not be the main crutch for lack of talent, such as auto tune, or using the computer because you dont even have the skill to match beats as a dj or know when to change the sound and song on the fly to keep a good vibe at a party, let alone play keybords or have a band going with the electronic insterments or computers.

This song is never on the radio anymore. They should have had a couple of mid 1980s comeback hits like other 1960s bands did during the mid 1980s. A have a cd set from them about 50 songs and more than 45 of them are good or better than good. One of the best bands of the entire 1960s.

Don't think for a moment about being alone. I am 70, I have family but there are thousands of people in our age group alone and I am going to do something about it. I would like to start a web site/club so we can get people together, exchange information, help each other. Not like AARP which is essentially fluff and feel good articles. I mean real help, you need income, here's some ideas, you need help with Social Security, here's help, somebody to fix your car in your area, here's someone, Heating help, Roofing, Painting, Real Estate, Insurance, Government programs, etc. I live in Madison, WI and I know a good deal of this. Someone like me lives in every area of the Country and we could help each other. No fees, the Web site could be complicated, landing page, response system, etc., but it should not cost much to run. One of us I am sure could do the design work. I am not that talented. Even an 800 number for more immediate response. Oh, yeah, maybe a listing of fun groups in your area. There is no need to be alone. Any ideas, I'm sastitab@gmail.com.
