Zerben R. Hicks and The Dynamics
Promo RCA Victor 9278
(from the web) Sung in the first person, this tale of a soldier in Vietnam penning a letter (or perhaps reflecting on a letter he's received) to his girl back home, pleading for her to wait for him to return so they can be together while the band plays Lights Out .
Beginning with rolling, military-band drums, chugging guitar and distant horns, the song steadily rises to a crescendo, as first a choir and then an orchestra join the march, before Zerben's devastating cry of "lights out, lights out baby" brings the whole thing crashing down.
Flip side is a mid-tempo dancer number called "YOU MAKE ME FEEL GOOD", credited simply to the Dynamics, making this rare 45 a double-sided delight
