  3. Thanks to you both for commenting on one of my childish flights of fantasy...

    but on a musical note, The Banana Splits' bubblegum pop was provided by notable studio professionals, including Joey Levine ("I Enjoy Being a Boy", "It's a Good Day for a Parade"); Al Kooper ("You're the Lovin' End"); Barry White ("Doin' the Banana Split"); & Gene Pitney ("Two Ton Tessie"). Also, Jimmy Radcliffe provided the songs ("I'm Gonna Find a Cave", "Soul", "Don't Go Away - Go-Go Girl", "Adam Had 'Em" & "The Show Must Go On") though not the vocals to this Splits' recording.
