Title: 29 June 2007--it's...1967
Post by: urth on June 29, 2007, 09:33:57 AM
Assuming Dave doesn't have a theme or VT set up his sleeve, I'm guessing it's going to be 1970 today--it's been since early May that we were last there.

Would love it if he made it a 1970 Soul Patrol.

OTOH, did Dave ever do his "summer set" (cue the Cars)?

I bet it's a Mornign Show LFTA set, which we've gotten 2 of the past 5 years during their LFTA week in the summer.  I was flipping channels while driving & think I caught the tail end of Dave saying something about it.

Hope you're both right about 1970 (or earlier).

FYI Gaz, we got the Summer set on the Friday before Memorial day.

Happy to have been off on this guess--it's 1967--woo hoo!!

Just occurred to me--wonder if we're going to hear an unofficial tribute to Monterey Pop today--Burden & the Animals were there, so we're one for one.

How can this NOT be a 10-way tie?

Incense and Trivia: The singer here wasn't the band's usual lead singer; he was a 16-year-old who filled in because his range was better suited to it.  At least, that's how I've heard the tale told.

So much for that theory--both Strawberry Alarmclock and the Spencer Davis Group did not play Monterey, iirc.

Yesterday during Benson's weekly appearance on the morning show he announced that KFOG is doing a special tribute to Monterrey on Wed evening as part of their special holiday programming.

Dandy lion don't tell no lies!  Timothy Leary, on the other hand, did.

Major props to Dave for underplayed Rascals, "A Girl Like You," another one I remember from the mid-'70s (this one, from the radio of my grandfather's cigar-stanky 1972 Vega auto).

Ups to Gaz for pegging this one--I have little memory of it. God bless your grandfather and his reeking Chevy.

Think Dave'll pass up a chance to play the Beatles? (I'm guessing not--hoping for AYNIL for Tune # 10.)

LOL: Diana as debutante scorned.  That affronted gasp before the refrain cracks me up.  Only a half-step away from "The Happening."

OMG!

My Folks had the Up With People album, and we listened to it constantly during my childhood.

Maybe the biggest flashback I've ever had during a 10@10.

And now for something COMPLETELY different: the stunningly mature-for-a-14-year-old Janis Ian.  This song really gets to me, right down to the defiant keyboard squiggles that inspired Paul Revere to do the same at the end of "Indian Reservation."

And Dave closes on a pleasant, redemptive note, as Donovan produces Zen koans.  Yay for mulitculti: "First, there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is."

Thanks, Dave.

Indeed very nice to hear. And to think what the Allman Bros. would do with this song's basic riff.

Yes, Dickie Betts on lead guitar might sound pretty good...

Non-specific urethritis.

Apparently one of the guys in the band picked up a dose of something...

So can you think of two more songs about venereal disease? This'd make a cracking M3S.

Well, the riff was actually used first on the Dead's Anthem of the Sun LP, and since ABB was a GD copy  band essentially, with a Southern Fried flavor, they picked it up and ran with it!  I'll excerpt it in MP3 form someday.
