The Avant-Garde was an American pop duo who used studio musicians to record their 3 singles for Columbia records in 1967 & 1968. The catchy song, "Naturally Stoned," actually cracked the USA Top-40. NOTE: Chuck Woolery (pictured in top photo on the left) was part of the duo. For those older, he was a very popular game show host, primarily from the 1970's through the 1990's).

LYRICS: Naturally Stoned
It seems the days we spend together all too quickly fade away
And even now, my lonely mind is filled with thoughts of yesterday
They say grow up, put your mind on what you have to do
But I know I can never make it, baby, without you
I can feel a good vibration
When I put my mind on you alone
I get a real sensation
Feel like I'm naturally stoned
Naturally stoned
And now they say it’s time for me to face their troubled world alone
But I know I can never do it while I'm standing on my own
There's just one thing that they do not seem to understand
Why can’t they get it through their heads? I need a helping hand
I can feel a good vibration
When I put my mind on you alone
I get a real sensation
Feel like I'm naturally stoned
Naturally stoned
I can get a good vibration
When I put my mind on you alone
I get a real sensation
Feel like I'm naturally stoned
Naturally stoned
Naturally stoned
