BOS6 Beatles (yay), "Girl". Is John taking a long drag on a joint? what is that sound?

That's what I assume they were going for.
I never felt that.  I think it's more of a sigh, like "wow, that Girl is really gear".

appropriate that the Moodies led into the Beatles, since their big break was getting to open for them on the US tour.

  A very Moreyesque set, and I mean that in a good way.

except that Dave was rather country-phobic, whereas AL has no qualms about playing the stuff.

Well, I thought so, but it's brilliance never really struck me.  Does it mean something other than pointlessly wasting your time in a hopeless pursuit?

A deck has 52 cards -- so he's not playing with a full deck, har har.

Davy's was not the same "Girl":

And indeed, the #4 "Flowers on the Wall" was the only Top 40 hit for the Statler Bros., who were neither Statlers nor brothers.
