Studio version
In 1968, Paul McCartney, under the pseudonym Apollo C. Vermouth, produced the most successful single for The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, “I’m the Urban Spaceman.” The track was later released on the 1969 album “Tadpoles.”
The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, formed by British art-school students in the early 1960s, blended music hall, jazz, and pop with surreal humor and avant-garde art. In September 1967, they were invited by Paul McCartney to participate in the Beatles’ “Magical Mystery Tour.”
