By The Fifth Dimension. By Galt Macdermot, Gerome Ragni, and James Rado. Arranged by John Fries. 20th Century,Broadway,Musical/Show,Pop,Standards. Lead Sheet / Fake Book. 1 pages. John Fries #819074. Published by John Fries (A0.1222832).The song spent six weeks at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in the spring of 1969 and was eventually certified platinum in the US by the RIAA. Instrumental backing was written by Bill Holman and provided by session musicians commonly known as the Wrecking Crew. As Holman tells it, the recording can be traced to an incident in which 5th Dimension lead singer Billy Davis Jr. left his wallet in a New York City cab; the man who found the wallet was involved in the production of Hair and invited the group to see the show: "After they'd seen it I received a phone call in which they were all talking over one another, saying 'We've got to cut this song "Aquarius". It's the best thing ever.'".
