Not bloody likely.
I went looking for the Toyes "Smoke 2 Joints" on YouTube to post on FB tomorrow -- I don't wanna say potheads are stupid but there are, like, 17 (roach-)clips of "Smoke 2 Joints" on YT labelled "Bob Marley". Because all reggae sounds like Marley when you're stoned? Sheesh.
Here's the Toyes, BTW:

To be fair, for the longest time I thought it was Bob Marley.
Other 420-ish songs?
Smoke On The Water
Legalize it
Smokin'
Rainy Day Women #12 & 35
Get Stoned (Hinder)
Smokin' In The Boys Room
Smoking Her Clothes (Inspiral Carpets)
Ah, why bother?
Although I do like one of the headlines at sports.yahoo.com/mlb:
"Lincecum is Smoking"

They're doing a pretty credible Buddy Holly impression here, down to the guitar solo style.

This "Diddy Wah Diddy" (?) is NTM. Must be just a left turn from Tobacco Road.
-

You've heard this before. It's Captain Beefheart.
ETA: It's not the normal version?
-
ah can only give "I can only give you everything" a BOS3! Van the Man sounds kinda like Iggy here.
-

Thanks for IDing. Methinks this garage rock was literally recorded in a garage. Fun to hear, if messy.
-

Just looked it up, and it's MC5? is that right? identified below by RGM.

Sounds exactly like the version on the Nuggets compilation to me. Showed up on random play on my Zune over the weekend.
-
TANC: I was just listening to Bootsy Collins' performance of "Cool Jerk" (from Standing in the Shadows of Motown) the other day!
-

Dance to the music of the Cool Jerk. Catchy bass line.

TCM had "Motown night" last week: showed that film, followed by Lady Sings the Blues and Big Chill.
-
BOS Cream, sounding pretty gritty.
-
no pot, but a "spoonful" of something else for 4/20.
Will AL follow this with the Lovin' Spoonful?
-
Is this Cream doing "Spoonful"? It's not the version I'm familiar with, but it sounds a lot like Jack Bruce.
-
it is definitely Cream
-
BOS to Bruce, Baker, and Clapton (before he was Crapton, right Mike?)
-

I recognize Bruce's voice too. But I have to WOS this; these extended blues workouts inevitably bore me.
-
BOS to Bruce, Baker, and Clapton (before he was Crapton, right Mike?)
This is even before he was God!
ETA: and speaking of God -- John's more popular than Jeebus!
-
BOS++ Beatles (Yay) and furthermore Woo Hoo!!
-
BOS to my favorite track on my favorite Beatles album. And second favorite album of all.
-
hells yeah !
my high school glee club used to do Good Day Sunshine, another BOS!
-
BOS to my favorite track on my favorite Beatles album. And second favorite album of all.
Hmmm, I agree it's a great album. But, since you mentioned it, what is your *favorite* album of all?
-
nice segue!
"...from America's sun specialists" into the Beach Boys.
-
Speaking of favorites, BOS++ for Wouldn't It Be Nice. Maybe my favorite by the Beach Boys...
-
wouldn't it be nice if we could slather ourselves with Sea'n'Ski?
-
VHM to the Temps, evoking the Carolina beach sound (if I understand correctly) on "Beauty's Only Skin Deep."

yes, you can definitely shag to this one (the dance, not the other thing)

The Jefferson Starship's Red Octopus, which I readily admit is more an emotional choice than a rational one. I have a longtime love affair with the hit "Miracles," and several other songs on it knock me out and bring back the warmest of memories, particularly "There Will Be Love." A line from Paul there:
I made an ark from the light of the stars
And I hewed two mesas of bright silver metal
That sang in the sun like a sail in the wind
And I weave my way back to you ... Now I fly ...
There's just something I love about that, that I can barely name.
-
one more BOS for the Temps, although I have to call you attention to Aswad's version if you ever get a chance to hear it, not overly reggae-ish but just really vibrant.
-
ah can only give "I can only give you everything" a BOS3!
big BOS for this.
Just looked it up, and it's MC5? is that right? identified below by RGM.
so, it was MC5 after all? Or are those Facebook Fogheads messing with me? I heard the Them version on Li'l Steven's show last week.
-

Burt was pissed?
Great version, only one I know!
-
BOS Cream, sounding pretty gritty.
I don't believe Spoonful was on the original US vinyl.
-
BOS to Bruce, Baker, and Clapton (before he was Crapton, right Mike?)
This is even before he was God!
ETA: and speaking of God -- John's more popular than Jeebus!
technically no, this is after the God phase.
I stand corrected

(http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/dailyloaf/files/2008/11/clapton-is-god.jpg)
Although Clapton gained world fame for his playing on the immensely influential album, Blues Breakers, this album was not released until Clapton had left the Bluesbreakers for good. Having swapped his Fender Telecaster and Vox AC30 amp for a 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar and Marshall amplifier, Clapton's sound and playing inspired a well-publicised graffito that deified him with the famous slogan, "Clapton is God". The phrase was spray-painted by an admirer on a wall in an Islington Underground station in the autumn of 1967. The graffiti was captured in a now-famous photograph, in which a dog is urinating on the wall. Clapton is well reported to have been embarrassed by the slogan, saying in The South Bank Show profile of him made in 1987, "I never accepted that I was the greatest guitar player in the world. I always wanted to be the greatest guitar player in the world, but that's an ideal, and I accept it as an ideal". The phrase began to appear in other areas of Islington throughout the mid-60s.

Hey, thanks for sharing. :-)
It's neat (yes that word is still used) to learn about favorite albums, films, etc. Especially when the choice (like yours IMHO) is not obvious to lots of people (like your 2nd choice album for example). You've got me thinking about *my* favorite album... no answers yet though.....

BOS to Love, pissing Bacharach off with their muscling their way through "Little Red Book."
Burt was pissed?
Great version, only one I know!
I read a BB interview some years ago in which he said he didn't care for artists reimagining his songs, that he'd rather they be performed as he wrote them. He dissed Love's LRB and that reggae cover of "I Say a Little Prayer."
