VHM to the forgotten J.J. Jackson.  (Points dinged for rhyming "told you so" with "reap what you sow," though.)

the Julian Bond story reminds: did you see the story yesterday about the guy who can't get seated as a local councilman in N carolina because he's an atheist?  What year is this?

VHM Bobby Hebb, one of those OHWs that became a standard.

Title is "Let's Go Away for a While," IIRC.

Would be amazing to get something from the Airplane's debut album ...

Any Mad Men fans out there are familiar with how the advertising industry was still pretty straightforward in the early 60s...  "Here's a product and why you want it."    I think the late 60s was when things started to get less "literal" in ad copy and more conceptual and humorous.  That Toronado ad had bongos, sure, and the car itself is beautifula dn modern, great angles...  but the old man's stiff voice over seems out of place, like it marks this car as one the older demographic would want.  
He asked "How's it drive, Bobby?"  Was that Bobby Unser?

Has this Michael Franti song come back into heavy rotation after falling off for a while? They're playing it a lot all of a sudden, it seems.

Damn, what an awesome set. Is it just me, or is AL playing a far greater percentage of 1960's sets?

It's not just you--AL is playing one 60s set per week, or nearly so. As well as two 70s, one 80s, and a theme set of some kind. Pretty sweet, imo.

Digging You Didn't Have To Be So Nice--a no-brainer BOS. Somewhere I have a recording of John Sebastian with NRBQ as his backing band doing a whole set of Spoonful hits. Irresistible pop.

   8.  John Mayall Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton - Hideaway (BOS)


I just realized what song this was--Geoff, can you confirm that the Dead performed Hideaway way back when? If memory serves, I've heard recordings of them doing it.

And I think Tom Petty covered both Hideaway and Diddy Wah Diddy when he and the HBs did their month-long residency at the Fillmore back in 97.

In 1983 I sold John Sebastian and his young son swimsuits at a NJ hotel shop where I was working that summer.  I still have the original sales receipt with his autograph.  He was very nice, as was his son, but his wife was real crabby.  You Didn't Have To Be So Nice was not about her!

I've worked with John a few times on guitar stuff, and he's a great guy; never met wife.

lucky to catch the Saturday replay, and a tasty set indeed.  Major props for the Beach Boys, Beatles, Bluesbreakers, Spoonful, Dylan, and Captain Beefheart cuts.
