Yellow Balloon was one of the first fake bubblegum groups created specifically
to record & release a song. In this instance it was for "Yellow Balloon", a cut
from Jan & Dean's 'concept' LP "Save For A Rainy Day" (all the songs had 
something
to do with rain). Don Grady (of "My Three Sons" fame) was a member of the 
touring version of Yellow Balloon.
