The First Edition was Kenny Roger's band from before he was the Kenny Rogers we know today.  I'm guessing a lot of people, especially the younger set, know this track from it's important placement in the classic "The Big Lebowski," and proud we are of all of them.  The band did a very radio-friendly version of psyche rock that was catchy, weird and safe all at the same time.  I dig it.  The b-side is called "Shadow In The Corner Of Your Mind," and I think we can all imagine what that sounds like.
