Enraptured after attending Broadway's then toast of the town, The 5th Dimension put together 'Aquarius' from HAIR with 'Let the Sunshine In' and the rest was chart-topping history. Spending six straight weeks at number one in the spring of '69, the medley became an ultimate, uplifting anthem for a generation. The story behind this mega hit is told in LaMonte McLemore's heartwarming new memoir 'From Hobo Flats to The 5th Dimension,' available now on Amazon.
