The Cowsills - The Cowsills In Concert (1969)

Put most charitably, this 1969 set of covers of huge '60s hits like "Good Vibrations," "Please Mr. Postman," "Paperback Writer," and (kid you not) "Sunshine Of Your Love," leaves itself open to all sorts of cruel jokes. Such as noting that all things considered, you're much better off with the original versions. Engineered by Val Valentin, who also worked on The Velvet Underground's White Light/White Heat such are the ups and downs of the record business. The CD reissue includes a rare EP that (again, kid you not) was originally recorded for the American Dairy Association.
