Many of their lesser known Top 40 hits, including "Neon Rainbow", "I Met Her in Church", and "Sweet Cream Ladies, Forward March", are considered minor classics. An album called The Letter/Neon Rainbow appeared in November 1967. The Box Tops released three albums over a nine-month period from late 1967 to mid-1968. Some of the group's instrumental tracks were performed by session musicians like Reggie Young, Tommy Cogbill, Gene Chrisman, and Bobby Womack at American Sound Studio.

Lyrics for Turn on a Dream by The Box Tops. Don't you know there's no other? CHORUS: Just turn on a dream, girl That's all I wanna do is dream, girl Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it could be Why can't you see? What can I do? You won't let me show you. Don't you know that I know you? When I'm down and my daytime's blue, I get by thinking of you (chorus) I close my eyes… I can see I can feel… that it's real I can turn out the sad, turn on the glad Shifting sand like an hourglass, Waiting for the time to pass But I'll keep waiting like I always do, Dreaming sunny dreams

The Box Tops' music was a seamless combination of soul, pop, blues, country, and rock 'n' roll all woven together in settings that range from understated to sophisticated and baroque. Chilton dominates with his astonishing vocals, so complex and emotionally evocative. Some of the very best Box Tops material never made it to the original albums, like "Turn On A Dream', 'You Keep Tightening Up', 'Come On Honey', 'Georgia Farm Boy', 'King's Row' and more.
