Pretty easy tune, too:Great post Roger - "Pushin' Too Hard" was one of the songs blaring from my transistor radio back in the day.
Al: I loved "No Milk Today." Side note; my brother kicked my butt because I scratched his Herman's Hermits album.

Reminds me I also loved "Dandy" written by none other than the Kinks' Ray Davies, also a neat read:
(Hint the middle 8 plays easier as bar chords):

One other favorite Hermits tune, "This Door Swings Both Ways":
https://www.ultimate-tabs.com/hermans-hermits/this-door-swings-both-ways-chords
with a possibly unwitting "psychedelic" lyric given LSD's reputation for causing "ego death":
"Make the most of livin'
If you're not prepared to die"
That tune was also produced by Mickie Most and it wouldn't surprise me if that's one of the sessions Page and John Paul Jones actually did play on, as Most used them for session work frequently.
It's got "that sound".
Page was also widely reported to have played "the banjo" on "Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter" but that one's been debunked.
I also have a suspicion Page might have played the classical intro on "No Milk", though.
IT has "the sound" too.
Most also produced Donovan which led to the myth that Page plays the solo on the uber-psychedelic "Hurdy Gurdy Man"
That one's still a matter of confusion to this day. Page thinks he did but John Paul Jones says he didn't.
That's Page on "Sunshine Superman", though.
Also "Epistle To Dippy" and "Season of the Witch".
Possibly the "most" unlikely pairing Most attempted to contrive was having Donovan front the Jeff Beck Group.
That's them on Barbajagal cuts "Atlantis", "Superlungs", and my personal favorite "Barabajagal".
