I’ve been familiar with Alice Cooper’s “Hello, Hooray” for a long time. For a majority of that time, I thought the song was originally released by them. That is, until I came across the album Who Knows Where The Time Goes by Judy Collins. I recognized the tune as soon as she started singing and was surprised to learn that she had released it about five years before Alice Cooper’s version. As I continued to listen to the record, I came across even more tunes that I enjoyed, eventually making this the first Judy Collins album I ever bought.
