Gary Puckett & The Union Gap: Incredible ; 1968 Columbia Records CS 9715 (stereo) Long Play Record ; The third album from Gary Puckett & the Union Gap features two Top Ten "gold" hits, "Lady Willpower," which just missed hitting number one in the summer of 1968, and the sublime "Over You," which opened the autumn of that year. "Over You" is arguably this band's finest moment and of their half-dozen hits, the only one which doesn't reference gender in its title. ....(AMG)

The Third Time Is The Charm
Gary Puckett possesses one of the greatest singing voices I've ever heard. Gary's vocals and song selection make him a cross between Tom Jones and Roy Orbison. Gary Puckett and the Union Gap achieved commercial and critical success with their first two albums, both of which were released in 1968. Incredibly, their third album, entitled "Incredible," was released in late 1968. It peaked at #20 in Billboard's album chart. The album was produced by Jerry Fuller, and featured the #2 hit "Lady Willpower" (written by Jerry Fuller), the #7 hit "Over You" (written by Jerry Fuller), and the song "Give In" (written by Jerry Fuller). Prophetically, the last song on the album, written by Jerry Fuller, was entitled "I've Done All I Can." Gary Puckett and the Union Gap wanted to write and produce their own songs. After this album was released, Jerry Fuller never worked with Gary Puckett again.

A Few folk songs
Incredible by Gary Puckett & The Union Gap is 27 minutes and 38 seconds and was released in November of 1968. Incredible reached #20 on the U.S. Billboard Pop Albums. It was the group highest charting album. The album charted two songs. With this album the group seems to almost leave their original genre and try something almost new. The through in one or two folks and the love songs are few. Still it is an enjoyable album.
