The 60’s was my decade...I thought I had an excellent knowledge of the decade's music.But I've never heard of this group or this song.Maybe because it never hit Boston or NYC radio (which is what I listened to back then).

Agreed, love the 60’s....hate this song.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Obscure band...

Think they had British hit w cover of Everlasting Love

[raccoonradio]

Wiki:Debuting on the UK Top 50 dated January 2, 1968, “Everlasting Love” by the Love Affair rose to No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart for a two-week stay that February

didn’t chart in US

So consensus is we’ve never heard of the band; only the movie.

:-) certainly can understand the reasoning behind that.

For movie music, in 1968 this was popular stateside.
