You can find the The Box Tops The Letter - Neon Rainbow cover in Tickfaw Harbor on the from the counter inside of Joey’s All-American Diner.

Even as early as the first album, this method cut both ways. It ensured a Southern soul professionalism that the young band likely couldn't have conjured on their own, but also worked against the development of a solid group identity, particularly as Alex Chilton was allowed to record very little of his own material. In fact, there are no Chilton songs on this debut, a spotty affair showing every indication of having been assembled very quickly in the wake of "The Letter" soaring to number one.

Produced by Dan Penn. Album The Letter/Neon Rainbow. Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane I ain't got time to take a fast train Lonely days are gone, I'm a goin' home My baby jus' wrote me a letter. I don't care how much money I gotta spend I got to get back to my baby again Lonely days are gone, I'm a goin' home My baby jus' wrote me a letter. The Box Tops was released as a single in the summer of ‘67, reaching in the United States. What have the artists said about the song? Singer Alex Chilton about his producer’s role –. coached me pretty heavily on singing anything we ever did. In a lot of cases, it sounds more like him singing than it sounds like me.
