This is the thread for obscure songs or "regional" hits from the 60's.

I'm starting it off with a personal fave rave from The Present; Many's the Slip Twixt the Cup and the Lip (or Baby the World Really Turns) from 1967. This song was written by George Fischoff and Tony Powers who also wrote Lazy Day and 98.6. free ringtones download. It didn't make the top 100 on the Billboard charts for that year, yet appears to have been a regional hit reaching number one on WQAM, the AM station that dominated South Florida rock for years.

It was kind of unique for its time in that it uses a harp, quotes an ancient proverb for the title, and has a unique philosophical bent - "sometimes a loss is as good as a win."
