You Bet Your Sweet Bippy was a take-off of Rowen & Martin's Laugh In TV Show. It was recorded shortly after The Wrest won the Wisconsin Jaycee's State Battle of the Bands in 1968. Originally, it was recorded in Appleton, WI at Target Studios and was later picked up by Tower records, which is a division of Capitol Records.
Target Studios was a basic 4 track studio, which was not uncommon in those days. There was a lot of over-dubbing and dumping down of multiple tracks onto one track.
You Bet Your Sweet Bippy reached #4 on Milwaukee's Hit Parade and #54 on Billboard's National Top 100 Weekly Hit Parade. ENJOY!
