16 Salutes The Union Gap
uncredited writer, 16 Magazine, July 1968
IN THIS day and age, with all the competition, it's quite an accomplishment to have a top ten record – especially for a new group. Well, the Union Gap recently had two Number One smashes with their Columbia recordings of 'Woman' and 'Young Girl'. Their LP The Union Gap has been on the best-seller charts for weeks, and the group's third single is bound to be a winner too.
