Notes:
"Wake Up...It's Tomorrow" is the second album by Strawberry Alarm Clock, released on Uni Records, in 1968. It came as the group was challenged with continuing the success of their debut single, the psychedelic classic and number one hit, "Incense and Peppermints" and the LP that followed. Their second effort would expand upon the arrangements of its predecessor's unique blend of vocal harmonies, psychedelia, and pop music.
Upon release, Wake Up...It's Tomorrow failed to chart, though it is considered Strawberry Alarm Clock's apex of musical creativity, as the band members were free to pen the majority of the album's material. The pop-oriented song "Tomorrow" preceded the release of the album, earning the group their second and final Top 40 hit. An additional follow-up single, "Sit with the Guru", also managed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Though not a single, "Pretty Song from Psych-Out" achieved wide exposure for being featured as the theme song in the film Psych-Out. However, distribution of the album came too late to capitalize on the success of "Tomorrow", and that it was poorly advertised by Uni Records due to the band's manager, Bill Holmes, attempting to retain control of the group by refusing promotional assistance from Uni executives.
