It is interesting to note, that in the immediate following sequence of five Mercury master numbers by the Diamonds, - Bill Medley wrote two of the songs.

21601 (PB 4844) Chimes In My Heart Unissued until 1996
21604 (PB 4847) Woomai-ling Mercury 71818

It wasn't until 1996 that "Chimes In My Heart" was eventually released on the Polygram 32734 CD "Best Of The Diamonds - The Mercury Years".

The Paramours and the Diamonds both had Nat Goodman working as their manager, which would explain the connection. Goodman is credited as producer of the three Bill Medley tracks on the Sonny & Cher & Friends album "Baby Don't Go" on Reprise RS 6177 in 1965.
