I rememeber hearing the song twice late in 1967.

I was 10 years old,


Some older cousins with long hair were listening to WNEW-FM, and I was in
the car with them.

When NEW had their 20th anniversary special, they played a clip from
Jonathan's show in January 1968, with the lead-in to Circus Maximus's

The Wind.
