Roll up....

Very hard to beat 67.

Roll up....
I was just watching the "Your Mother Should Know" segment from MMT the other night. It wasn't as good as I remembered - and it was the only watchable part of MMT.

was that Timothy Leary plug for 10@10 authentic?
Anyone ever hear Dave play it?

an ATBB from Nuggets?

aggressively determined hippies are giving this set some good vibes, and they are capable of extremely hard work!
BOS3 to Pigpen-era Dead.

Had to change my avatar accordingly!

Yes, and yes.
OMG-BOS to the Dead, Golden Road to Unlimited Devotion. If Dave played this any time in the last decade, I'll eat my keyboard.

BOS for the GD and "Golden Road to Unlimited Devotion".

O. M. F. G.
Best of Month, maybe Year, to "The Ballad of You & Me & Pooniel." My favorite Marty-Grace-Paul interplay!
ETA: Can't leave Paul out of that!
-
Here's one for the Gaz-man:
High Flyin' Bird The Ballad of You & Me & Pooneil from the Airplane. Quicksilver next?
ETA: Ooops. First line threw me. :-[

Not bad

indeed, BOSFRA from me.

did Marty just say "armadillo?"
-
did Marty just say "armadillo?"
Yes, and I have no idea why.

Oddly, Dave only played one JA song in year-based sets--Volunteers in '69, but the rest of his Airplane selections came strictly in theme sets (Bay Area music or other variations on that theme, Drug songs, Strictly instrumental).
-
did Marty just say "armadillo?"
Yes, and I have no idea why.
I'll tell ya later.
BOS for "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner". Another great Spencer Tracy moment.
-
VHM Spencer Tracy, who looks alot like

VVHM to the Turtles, "Happy Together," a song I could never get tired of. (Though I like "She's My Girl" and "Elenore" even better.)
-

his pet name for his ... pet?
-
damn, that is as political a clip/song segue as Dave ever did.
And keep in mind, in 1967 interracial marriage was still illegal in 1/3 of the states.
-
did Marty just say "armadillo?"
yup

Turtle-flavored bubble gum: A great way to wash out that acid-y aftertaste!

VVHM to the Turtles, "Happy Together," a song I could never get tired of. (Though I like "She's My Girl" and "Elenore" even better.)
sadly, I *am* rather tired of it, it's one of the 2 or 3 most-overplayed songs on oldies radio (right after "Brown-Eyed Girl"). And here's S&C, 'lec-tric-lee keeping score with one that's certainly in the Top Ten.
"Girls still becoming boys to get a kiss"
-
TANC: Sonny & Cher The Beat Goes On, a day after Chaz's revelation goes public.
Another one for the Bustout roster.
-
I may have missed 1 or 2, but so far I haven't seen any of these songs on the player's Now Playing/Upcoming display.
Did Annalisa bring everything in from home today?
-
Jimi!
-
Cher's still showing lots of ass, uh-huh
Chastity's becoming Chaz, uh-huh
And the beat goes on ...

Except for the Beatle tune, none of these ever show up in KFOG rotation.

I'm w Shray on this. Happy Together is one of the earliest songs I can recall singing along to. Loved it then, I suppose, and def love it now.
-
Jimi!
That's funny -- my stream must be slow -- your posting appeared about a minute before I actually starting heariing Are You Experienced...
-
Jimi!
are you... listening to the radio? well, geoff is ('cause he's 2 minutes ahead of the rest of us)
-
AYE? is a major sledgehammer for me. Although I'd heard just about every other track, somehow I'd never heard "Are You Experienced" on the radio prior to borrowing the LP from a friend & taping it. So my first listen was sitting in my lving room with the headphones on, and it quite literally blew my mind.
-
VVHM2 to the Blues Magoos, outstanding garage rock.
-
Woo Hoo! uber-BOS Blues Magoos! One of my very fave singles of all time.
-
it quite literally blew my mind.
Must have taken forever to scrub it off the walls.
-
"not necessarily stoned, but ... beautiful."
Go Jimi! now that, my friends, is the drugs talking. I always laugh at that line. :)
-
my phone is going to ring at any moment fro a 10:30 conf call.
hopefully they're gonna be 10 minutes late.
-
it quite literally blew my mind.
Must have taken forever to scrub it off the walls.
If we had one of those "Like" buttons that they have on Facebook, i'd have clicked it for this one. Literally.

maybe his "mind" is his name for his "armadillo."

From one Nugget to another: then came the dawn!

Pacifists and Hippies together? man, those were some wild times...

OMFG! 2nd uber-BOS the Prunes! another all-time fave. Would love to hear that Jerry Vale version that allegedly exists.

Interesting... the Pontiac ad included the line "The Ultimate Driving Machine" -- guess BMW didn't invent that...
-

So an "armadillo" was period slang for a hummer?
-
BOS for that GTO commercial. The Great One indeed!
And Rich, I caught that too. Thought it was a BMW commercial most of the way through, though they never had a 400 cubic inch engine!
-
Loving this Nuggets-centric set (although '67 was prime Nuggets territory).
BOS-whatever for Steppin' Stone. Not officially a Nugget, but you could see them from here.
Only the fourth Monkees song to appear in the DB, after I'm A Believer, Daydream Believer, and Gonna Buy Me A Dog. Still another for the bustout roster.
-
I know it's a good set when a Monkees entry is only the 5th-best track. Peter's "NOOO!" yelp is a GREAT garage moment.
-

Who did the voiceover on that? anyone we should recognize?

LAWD! uber-BOS-infinity Monkees!

Woo Hoo Monkees!! -- Hitting *all* the right notes for 1967 (plus some I'd never heard before). Great Set !!!!!!!!

This is why I consider 1967 the peak year for rock music. And we didn't even TOUCH on some of the great R&B of the year! (Aretha and Otis were debuting, Four Tops were peaking, and the other Motown acts were going strong too.)

Nah, I don't really know anything. That was just a play on the line from Buckaroo Banzai:
-- "Why is there a watermelon there"
-- "I'll tell you later."

You mean you weren't already smoking one? ;)

sorta related to this set, I mentioned Porpoise Song by the Monkees and found this (poor quality) vid from the movie Head, which I've never seen, but now must!

cut me some slack, I was posting from my iPhone while Martha was driving me across town to pickup my car! No KFOG streams yet available for iPhone/iPod Touch.

I can give you Head when you're in NYC next month. Warning: it's not a very good movie. The "Porpoise Song" and "As We Go Along" segments are highlights, but it's mostly an unfunny stoner excursion.
PS to Geoff: speaking of which - nah, I can't smoke while I'm at work! 8)

All these years, I just thought it was the word Armadillo, because it sounded cool, but hey, if you guys know the secret sex slang, who am I to question?
;)

while we were driving, I was thinking of whether this song would be easy or not for my band to play at the hospital gigs, and wondered who actually played on this track.

I don't know anything about the true meaning, and this was quite the sassy tangent, but my comment was colored by my understanding that Marty was/is kind of a galavanting cad.

Any thread that lends itself to a Buckaroo Banzai reference makes my day!
Dave have you seen this: http://www.banzai-institute.com/ (http://www.banzai-institute.com/) ? They call The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai: Across the Eighth Dimension (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086856/) "an acclaimed docudrama."

Hah! I haven't been to the Institute in a while. It's pretty over the top, as it should be. I'll have to check it out.
From an interview with Marty in 1994:
Marty remembers the "good" times: "In the early days, RCA would come to us and they'd listen to my lyrics and go, 'You can't say that, you can't say Trips. Trips is a bad word!' And the next day, they'd say 'What do you mean by these lyrics – Love, Fucking, Armadillo. Armadillo – that is very dirty!' We were censored all the way. 'What does this peanut butter and jelly sandwich on [the inside cover of] Volunteers mean?' It meant nothing. And people all the time think that [the song] 'Volunteers' is a big revolutionary political statement. But all that happened with that song was that I was woken up one morning by some trash cans rattling outside and I looked out of my window and there was a truck with 'Volunteers Of America' painted on the side. So I wrote about that. And the next thing I know, it's a big political tune. Bullshit, man. Everything's bullshit in this business."
This doesn't explain what it meant, but suggests to me that it might mean nothing at all.

Larry Taylor from Canned Heat?

OMFG! 2nd uber-BOS the Prunes! another all-time fave. Would love to hear that Jerry Vale version that allegedly exists.
(http://www.raw-tcsd.com/ElectricP.HOL.0532.jpg)
I'd never heard of Jerry Vale before this post. Went searching, found he did a very good "Till," but thought this Electric Prunes clip was more interesting:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnaOXfQ0wVo
Lead singer plays a zither!

Can't be that hard, if the Sex Pistols played it ... :)

The LA ska band the Untouchables did a fine cover of it in the '80s.
BTW, we def discussed the Jerry Vale thing here at one time or another; Little Steven tells the story that "Too Much to Dream" was written as an MOR ballad and made its way to the Perry Como-esque Jerry Vale, who either turned it down or recorded it and didn't release it. Somehow, a few years later the Prunes got hold of it and the rest is history.
Finally, hearing that amazing Spencer Tracy marriage clip again this morning -- quite a speech for '67 -- I couldn't help wondering if Dave was listening on the internet and kicking himself for never having used it himself.

TANC: Li'l Steven did his annual salute this week to Monterey Pop, and played "Plastic fantastic Lover". Listening again to the London feed on Absolute Radio right now. Steven called Jack Casidy "one of the 4 or 5 greatest bassists ever"

Agreed! One of my biggest influences, and someone I've been lucky to work with. So, name is spelled Casady!
