Chappo’s cover of Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) appeared on their free 2013 EP Nothin’ To Sell You. Written by Mickey Newbury – who had intended the lyrics to be a warning about the dangers of using LSD – the song was first recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis in 1967, and then covered by country rock group First Edition (later renamed Kenny Rogers and First Edition) who had a hit with it in 1968. The above video features images from the 1973 René Laloux directed animated movie, La Planète Sauvage (Fantastic Planet).
