Enter The Young
(Terry Kirkman)
Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese "From The Original Master
Tapes" CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
This song was the group's selection for the follow-up single to "Along
Comes Mary". However, the regional breakout of "Cherish" in the midwest
changed that choice. The version for the "HITS" album was re-cut (AWR:
I know - it blows dead bears) and not from the first album. This could
have been the theme song for the 60's youth movement.
