; Comments
*An example of how US artists were still affected by Musicians' Union rules, with Tim Hardin in session backed not by a group of his own, but by a British quintet led by jazz bassist Spike Heatley on "Don't Make Promises", although "Hang On To A Dream" is a solo performance by Hardin with piano accompaniment. Other tracks from the session are unavailable at present..
