The Lemon Pipers

"Green Tambourine" was the primary hit by the 1960s Ohio-based rock
group The Lemon Pipers, as well as the title track to their debut-album
Green Tambourine. The song has been credited as being one of the
first bubblegum pop chart-toppers. Released towards the end of 1967,
it peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for one week at the
start of February, 1968 and earned the group a gold record for over
a million copies sold. The record remained on the chart for three
months. It was also the first number-one hit for the Buddah label.
