Arthur
Note: This 2nd attempt at a follow-up single to "Maybe
Tomorrow" was rejected by Apple, which prompted an article in "Disc and
Music Echo" on July 5 with The Iveys stating that they were being
"neglected". The first track ended up on the U.K. LP release of "Magic
Christian Music" and its B-side remaining unreleased until the CD
release of "Magic Christian Music" in 1991.

Trident Studios,

The Iveys
Permissive Paradise
Note: This track was recorded for a promo flexidisc to
promote the Frank Habicht book "Young London". The disc was given away
on June 12, 1969 in London. The Iveys performed using the pseudonym,
"The Pleasure Garden". Ron Griffiths brought the tape to Apple Studios
and with the recording engineer "produced" the version which was pressed
onto the flexidisc. The song was not written by any of The Iveys but
mostly likely by publishing company employee Gilles Cremonesi under the
pseudonyms of Jeremy Cox & John Sidey.
