I was the one that mentioned that, I believe.  As far as the Sheep are
concerned, their best side was "Thinkin' About It", which was never
officially released .  The other single I have heard (their only other
one?) is "Dynamite" which is worse than this one.  "Hide and Seek" is a
cover of the Bunker Hill song that is in the movie of "Hairspray" but not
on the soundtrack album.   It would seem that the F-G-G team produced the
McCoys' Hang on Sloopy, as this and "Twelve Months Later" sound quite
similar.  This is plausible, as the Strangeloves and the McCoys had the
Bang! label in common.
