The Hurdy Gurdy Man

Donovan was considered sort of a British Bob Dylan, his first two hits in 1965 "Catch the Wind" and Colours" were very folksy and un-electric.  But when he got things going in 1966 with the #1 smash "Sunshine Superman" he'd moved to the psychedelic sounds of Flower Power.  1968's "Hurdy Gurdy Man" was one of his Flower Power hits, climbing to #5.  Today it's just a strange forgotten oldie.
