2001 (HAL feels much better) --> Mr Masakela in the grass.  Two fairly well-worn choices so far but since '68 comes up so rarely I won't complain.

"take your stinking paws off me!" --> the Monkees (heh), "Valleri". Easily one of my 2 or 3 fave 45s of theirs.

Yep, one of their greatest (and less-played) songs. Nothing wrong with the first two, but this one is BOS1.

And BOS2 to Jiving Sister Fanny Stray Cat Blues. Nice. I picture pandemonium in snipeville.

Yeah, LN. Billy Joel did a nice version of it at PacBell Park, though.

Gotta play a couple for the casual/gen-X fogheads, but we got some nice nuggets for the fanatics among us, too. Given that a number of our more recent 60s visits have been heavy on the FFs, I'd call this one a win.

Yes, lame. I'm sorry, but something being "milky" sounds gross to me. Whatever it is, it's got too much milk in it.

Today on 1968 For Beginners...

Three well-worn choices, four less-played selections from well-worn artists, and three
moderately-worn choices.

No bust-outs.

Did it sound good great?  Well DUH!  It's 1968, yo.

Another plus:  there wasn't the Barbarella trailer sequeing into a song about love.
And Hendrix + headphones = YOW!  Also, with Jimi, The Band, the Beatles (yay!), the
Stones... an acceptably high rawk quotient.

The dark lining in the silver cloud is that I think today was more of an aberration than
the start of a trend.

Yep.  Conversely, Dave hardly played the Monkees, while Annalisa plays much more of their
catalogue much more often.

2. Hugh Masekela - Grazin' in the Grass

An long-established member of the Twenty Plus Club.

7. Marvin Gaye - I Heard It Through the Grapevine

The song itself is in the Twenty Plus Club, evenly split between Marvin Gaye and Gladys Knight,
while neither one alone makes the mark.

10. Sly & the Family Stone - Dance to the Music

My gut tells me there's a Sly song in the Twenty Plus Club, but I haven't checked.  This
one almost made it.

no --  a couple of spins, and none in the Morey era, which is surprising.

Oops!  I should check my own list... yes, Hot Fun in the Summertime is already on it, with 23 spins.

According to my files this is its fourth appearance.  Dave played it once on 17-Oct-2003.
