The First Edition - Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) • TopPop

This week it will be 'Sixties Week' on the Toppop Channel! We will publish very rare Sixties videos, of which most will be the premiere on YouTube! "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)" is a counterculture era song written by Mickey Newbury and, in 1968, a chart hit for The First Edition, which recorded the song in October 1967. Said to reflect the LSD experience, the song was intended to be a warning about the dangers of using the drug. It was first recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis, backed by members of "The Memphis Boys", the chart-topping rhythm section at Chips Moman's American Sounds Studio in Memphis, on May 9, 1967. "Just Dropped In ..." was recorded by The First Edition (with Kenny Rogers on lead vocals) in October 1967, and peaked at number five on the Billboard charts. It was Rogers' first top ten hit. The song captures the psychedelic era of the late 1960s in stark contrast to the country folk harmonies that characterized most of The First Edition's catalog, and it garnered the group's first national TV audience on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. It was the group's second single from their eponymous album, The First Edition. Producer Mike Post reversed a few riffs to create the intro; the solo played by Glen Campbell was heavily compressed and a tremolo effect was used to achieve its sound. Another studio guitarist, Mike Deasy, provided the acoustic lead guitar parts. The track was recorded by Jimmy Valentine at "Valentine Recording Studios" located in Valley Village California. This song is featured in the dream sequence from the Coen brothers' 1998 film 'The Big Lebowski'. It was also featured in the movie 'Faster', in an episode of the series 'True Detective' and in the video game 'Driver 2'. This video mas created by the directors of Dutch AVRO tv-program 'Vjoew' and first broadcast on 15 April 1968. Enjoy! I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in I found my mind in a brown paper bag within I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high I tore my mind on a jagged sky I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in I watched myself crawlin' out as I was a-crawlin' in I got up so tight I couldn't unwind I saw so much I broke my mind I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letters on a "Dead End" sign I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind Eight miles out of Memphis and I got no spare Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in Yeah Yeah Oh yeah Watch our great music videos ❯ https://goo.gl/feVLNN More TopPop?
