Book Musik 024 - "Along Comes The Association" by Russ Giguere and Ashley Wren Collins

Tosh and Kimley discuss “Along Comes the Association: Beyond Folk
Rock and Three-Piece Suits” by Russ Giguere and Ashley Wren
Collins. The Association had several enduring top-40 hits in the
1960s but were a bit of an anomaly. While performing they typically
wore suits and they sang lush harmonies on songs like “Cherish,”
“Windy” and “Never My Love.” This was during a time when
guitar-heavy rock was dominating the music scene and the cool kids
had a proclivity for outrageous attire and social upheaval. But as
an integral part of the Los Angeles music scene, The Association
was in the thick of things, opening the Monterey Pop Festival and
hanging out with all those cool kids.
