Chords for Dawn (with Tony Orlando) - Candida - [original STEREO]

_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ [F] _ _ Welcome to Flashback Favorites.
I'm Music Mike.
Thanks for joining me again.
Our featured artist today was working as a record company executive [N] when he was approached by another record guy, Dave Appel,
and a member of the group, The Tokens, Hank Medris, to sing the lead on a demo song they had.
Well, after polishing the song up a little bit and adding some female background vocals, the record company loved it.
But they couldn't release it under our featured artist's name because he had a non-compete contract.
So they came up with his stage name.
And the rest is history.
From 1970, a song that made it all the way to number three under the group name, Dawn.
