- Group of Ohio, The Son of Liberty, moved to New York, where he auditioned for one of the clubs. By adding the two singers Melanie Ross and Nancy Petite (going to compete with The Mana's and Pappa's), and by changing the name to EIGHTH DAY started to record the album, but that there was delayed by the manufacturer, and the group by the end of the summer I had to go back to Ohio, so as one of the leaders of the group (Glenn Reasner) was at that time only 16 years old and had to go back to school. Manufacturers simply replaced musicians taking group The Opus 4 (on the cover they have) from the same club and finish the record.

I remember this album by the Eighth Day very well. The drummer, Bill Gunion, was from Follansbee WV and had recorded on the Opus IV's "Mess Around" on MGM. Glenn Reasoner was from Wellsburg, WV and was with the Sons Of Liberty, who recorded "Love Babe" on Gateway Records. I believe the rest of the band was from nearby Ohio. The title track got a lot of airplay in northern WV and in Ohio and nearby eastern PA. An unknown gem.
