Analysis
At the end of the 60's, most of the songs seemed to be heading towards a more pop direction. FYI, "Raindrops" was the first Number 1 hit of the 70's. And that "Marmalade, Molasses, and Honey" interlude in The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean makes more sense after watching this clip. The others songs were all C level.
