FB thread is up early since AL is attending a concert tonight.
-
someone on FB requested Desmond Dekker. ::)
-
This could be so great, but I've developed some low expectations for anything from the 60's. It has tended towards the touristy tracks.

I adore "Sweet Caroline" but it's a pretty obvious choice ("Brother Love" or "Holly Holy" woulda been awesome). Fuck the Sawx.
-
Edward Kennedy ---> Neil Diamond "Sweet Caroline"
I guess it's a Boston thing

-
VHM and LN for "Everybody's Talkin'"

VHM and LN for "Everybody's Talkin'"
Still enjoy hearing the song myself. Now, the Fred Neil original would be something.

Easy Rider ---> Blind Faith "Can't Find My Way Home"

Easy Rider --> "Can't Find My way Back Home". I'll give this a BOS4.

This might be my earliest favorite song, when I was 8.
-
Easy Rider --> "Can't Find My way Back Home". I'll give this a BOS4.
I've never listened to the Blind Faith album, but I'm under the impression it was roundly panned. This is a brilliant song.
-
more Easy rider --> BOS5 "Let it Bleed"
-
More Easy Rider ---> The Rolling Stones "Let It Bleed"

I don't recall it getting bad reviews. I'll have to research that.

BOS6 "mah-na-mah-na"

from "Mah-na-mah-na" to "goo-goo barabajagl" -- segue of the day. BOS7 Donovan/Jeff Beck.
-
Mahna Mahna ---> Donovan/Jeff Beck Group "Goo Goo Barabajagal (Love Is Hot)"
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/22/Donovan-Barabajagal.jpg)

BOS6 "mah-na-mah-na"
The Sesame St. version of that one, no? Certainly not the Sweden: Heaven & Hell original.
Cute that she dropped a quick "mah-na mah-na" into the beginning of Barabajagal.
Sodden thought: Did Mah-na Mah-na count as a song, or just a clip?
-
VHM "Hey Bulldog"
BOS and a surprising rarity, with only one previous unique appearance on 10@10.

just a clip, apparently.

Sounds like either revisionist history, or a Rolling Stone review!

Easy Rider ---> Blind Faith "Can't Find My Way Home"
"Oh yeah, that's right. That's what it's [freedom] all about all right. But talking about it and
being it, that's two different things. I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought
and sold in the marketplace. 'Course, don't ever tell anybody that they're not free, 'cause
then they gonna get real busy killing and maiming to prove that they are. Oh yeah, they
gonna to talk to you and talk to you and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see
a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em."
-- George Hanson (Jack Nicholson), "Easy Rider"

OMFG! BOSBOSBOS
First of all, Can't Find My Way Home is one of the greatest songs EVAH. It's topped
only by their Sea of Joy, Had to Cry Today, and Cream's White Room.
And while Do What You Like isn't up to par with the rest of the album, the other five tracks
are all phenomenally excellent, and it's hard to imagine you haven't heard them before. I own
more individual copies of this album than any other, except Cream's Wheels of Fire. Even with
just those five songs, the Blind Faith record is hands down one of the top five rock albums of all
time.
Of course, we all say and think dumb things on occasion. For example, in my youth I considered
Led Zeppelin to be a second-tier band. In the fullness of time, I've come to grant them first-tier
status.

This could be so great, but I've developed some low expectations for anything from the 60's. It has tended towards the touristy tracks.
I heard a lot of great stuff on today's show, but there were no bust-outs, big name or otherwise.
So once again it was both a very pleasant listen and a disappointment as the year's huge potential
for new material was ignored.

Agree completely. Esp if you factor-in the Morey era (where the sixites showed up more often), there were a helluva lot of FFs here. Good songs individually but I never need to hear "Down on the Corner" again (thanks, Walgreens!) and as always there were some fab suggestions on FB that went unplayed. "Touristy" is a great word, geoff -- I call sets like this "Sixties for Dummies" because they're aimed at a younger crowd who have little knowledge of deep tracks or lost hits. But EVERYBODY knows "Sweet Caroline" and "Everybody's Talking".
-
and to continue the touristy theme: AL's "bonus" tarck posted on FB was... Desmond Dekker. ::)
