in the 80s. They opened for the Monkees. I don;t have a clue if any of them were original Gappers. The Grass Roots were on the bill too.

My wife sang this to me backwards - well, reversed - she's 7 years older than me and we started dating when I was around 21...

me when I was about 16 or so, being a rebellious teenager.

"Young Girl"

Specifically the words...

"Beneath your perfume and makeup
You're just a baby in disguise,
And I would gladly teach you
If I could only reach you..."

Way to ruin a good (horny) song, mom...


Anyway, for sheer Gary Puckett teenaged horny, I always liked, "This Girl Is A Woman Now"...
