Next Plane to London
"Next Plane to London" is the debut single by the American folk rock band, The Rose Garden. The single, released by Atco Records, became the band's only Top 20 hit on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 when it peaked at number 17. It would later reappear on the group's 1968 studio album, ''The Rose Garden''. "Next Plane to London" became one of the most memorable one-hit wonders of the late sixties, yet it has not been recorded by another group.
==History==
The band's first incarnation was as the Blokes, a Byrds-inspired band. The Blokes recorded their own material, but became known for promoting a single by professional musicians who went under the name, The Giant Sunflower. The single, "February Sunshine", became a Los Angeles hit, and the Blokes became known as The Giant Sunflower for a couple of weeks to perform the song in their live act. The Blokes recorded demos with Charlie Greene, and Brian Stone when it was announced they needed a new name. As guitarist John Noreen states, "Everything was 'flower power' at that time, so The Rose Garden made sense".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Rose Garden 1967-1968 )〕 Under the new band name, the group recorded numerous demos in search of the one song to become their debut single. At first, their efforts appeared in vein until their promoter, Pat Pipolo, put managers Greene and Stone in contact with songwriter Kenny Gist Jr.. Gist Jr.'s composition, "Next Plane to London", was chosen to be recorded as the A-side to the debut single.
