Of course, videos had no footprint back in 1966, but that song took incredible heat. I think it climbed to a Top 5 hit but then radios stations started getting pressure not to play it. I lived in NY back then and I think both WABC and WMCA took it off their playlists and the record company (BMI ???) withdrew it.
