And now a poor man's "Dance to the Music". Sorry Archie, but this just isn't a good song. I do get kind of a perverse kick out of its silliness. Has anybody ever seen someone doing the Tighten Up?

I was about to say! I don't know how to do it.
WOS to Jack Webb's hypocrisy in justifying alcohol over pot.

I agree, Jack Webb -- "LSD is da bomb!" LOL!
And Ted Nugent *used* to agree...

I think that was a (noticably faster) re-recording.

I understand ol' Jack held MANY a young mans, er, head at 4 in the morning...

The Nuge has always implausibly claimed that he's never done a drug - that it was the other guys in the band who were into that.

it's a mind-expansion twin-spin! BOS2 and proxy of shray, Moodies

The Moodies were great musicians but hokey poets.

OMG!! BOS to Mary Hopkin's throwback to turn-of-century Russia.
-
Holy flaming mutha! uber-BOS4 Mary Hopkin! A bustout methinks -- Dave somehow avoided this one, tho' you'd think it'd be right up his alley.

I think that was a (noticably faster) re-recording.
Listening to the replay last nite with better speakers, it was obvious that not only was this not the original, but the Mary Hopkin was clearly a different version as well -- what's up with that? I'd've thought, given what a Moreytrina the Equals song is, that the right version (which Dave always played) was in the KFOG library. And the Hopkin -- why the re-recording? Macca must be pissed.
(And as a sidelight, the Hopkin was #1 for 6 weeks on NYC's WABC, which played the #1 song EVERY HOUR -- so it's burned into my brain)
