Redox Rap

Full Text
In Laura Kolonie's letter "Redox Rap" (J. Chem. Educ. 1997, 74, 22), she inadvertently attributes the song "Rock Me Gently" to Neil Diamond. In fact, this song (Capitol #3895) was a number-one hit for Andy Kim in July of 1974. Kim, a Canadian-born artist, also co-wrote the Archies hit "Sugar, Sugar" (with Jeff Barry, #1 in August 1969). Many have compared Andy Kim's singing voice to that of Diamond, but the interest of accuracy, in what is an otherwise interesting letter, I thought I should correct this case of mistaken identity!
