Eric: you're almost certainly right about Herb Alpert and Lou Adler. They had several such writer credits, although I can't find one offhand for "New Fad."

For a second when I heard "hi everyone" I thought it was Kitschy Mama.

Also, it reminded me that I should write a "Hi Everyone" greeting to you all.
