Barry McGuire - Eve of Destruction

Eve of Destruction was a #1 hit for Barry McGuire in 1965. It was his only entry on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. The song was recorded in one take on a Thursday morning (from words scrawled on crumpled piece of paper) and then he got a call from the record company at 7:00 the next Monday morning, telling him to turn on the radio - his song was playing. The recording includes an "ahhh" where McGuire couldn't even read his own writing. Enjoy!
