Happy Jack

The song "Happy Jack" was released as a single in 1966 by the British rock band The Who.  The song was #3 in Britain and #1 in Canada, and was the Who's first top-40 hit in the USA in early 1967.  The song was also a staple of Who concerts until 1970.  So the question is... how can the Who's first hit record be forgotten?
