OMFG! instant BOS Dionne W on her way to SJ! wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo....
Google maps says take a left at Love Street, Dionne.

OMFG! instant BOS Dionne W on her way to SJ!
Ya know, considering where we live, you'd think we'd hear this song all the time, but we don't. It's actually nice to hear.
BTW, I saw the late comments about Drano for yesterday. Horrible stuff. I guess part of the confusion comes from the phrase "OD'd on Drano...". There's really no safe dosage.

indeed, it's gotta be an ATBB -- Dave never played it that I can recall. Of course, what station would these days? -- it's too "old" even for KOIT.

BOS "Love Street," my favorite Ray Manzarek melody.
BOS2 to Goldie Hawn and Dave Thomas of Laugh-In.
HM to the 5-D, but what does "surrey" mean?

BOS for Goldie Hawn, presumably on Laugh-In, sounding a few sheets to the wind. And wasn't that the Partridge Family's manager? Dang, what's his name?
-
BOS2 Laugh-in; BOS3 the fab 5-D, surrey-ing (WTF *is* surrey-ing, anyway?) with Ms Nyro. I swore it sounded like they're saying "trains of possums" instead of "blossoms". Because, y'know, when I was 13 I figured black people ate possum.
-
What exactly does "surrey" mean, anyway?
-

Dave Madden, pre-Reuben Kincaid. I remembered his name wrong in my other post.
-
"Dock of the Bay" is better as Tune #10.
I'm hoping for some minor Supremes. Maybe "No Matter What Sign You Are."

triple surrey JINX! and it's Dave Madden (aka Reuben Kincaid)

Only the country ones. :) Trains of possums...now *there's* a visual.
"Surrey" jinx!

Nobody wants to go on after Otis.

I wonder if "surrey" = "hurry" in a "S'wonderful" way. Since we're apparently all wondering about it.

Arthur Conley would have happily gone right behind Otis.

surrey: "two-seated, four-wheeled pleasure carriage," 1895, from Surrey cart, an English pleasure cart (introduced in U.S. 1872), named for Surrey, England, where it was first made. The place name is O.E. suþrige (722), lit. "Southerly District" (relative to Middlesex).
Maybe in the song they were riding in a carriage to a Stone Soul Picnic??

I imagine surrying as being kinda like sashaying or maybe swaggering. Or...sauntering. That's probably the best. Grooving on down, doncha know?

Back in '88 I got to see a Rascals reunion headline an oldies show at Meadowlands Arena, NJ

The Rascals make me think of the Tea Party/libertarian conundrum currently facing our society: for some "being free" means NOT looking out for one's brothers.

They couldn't fit everyone in a surrey! And it's hardly the sort of vehicle you'd take to a stoned soul picnic...
ETA: Thanks for looking it up!

Happy Birthday Donovan!
Funny, I requested "Harper Valley PTA" on AL's FB page, but I posted a vid of this song on FB yesterday.

"Jennifer Juniper" is just too precious for me.

But it's got bassoon, oboe, flute and harp in it! And possibly some guy playing the spoons.

Jennifer, meet Valleri!
BOS6 Donovan; BOS7 Davy and the boyz.
-
I'll give a BOS to Valleri! Great song.
So is that Mike Nesmith playing the noodly guitar, or is this before they were playing on any of their recordings?

BOS to everything on "Valleri," especially Billy Lewis's drumming. (You didn't think that was Micky, didja?) And of course the fabulous fretwork of Louie Shelton on the solos.
-
Here you go, Mike!

OMFG! My request 2 days in a row! I'm gobsmacked. AL, I love you.

Why was the daughter at the PTA meeting, though?

Why was the daughter at the PTA meeting, though?
'cause she was a single mom who couldn't afford a babysitter?
uber-BOS 8 and kudos to the great Tom T Hall for writing it.

"To sock-it to the Harper Valley PTA!"

Her mother couldn't afford a sitter.

She's having a little trouble holding up in those heels. I think *she's* had a nip of gin.

BOS for Todd and the Nazz.

BOS2 the Nazz, "Open My Eyes." Another that used to be in heavy rotation on MTV's Closet Classics, but which I have never heard on radio outside of 10@10.

For a really noisy song, you have to admire the production, even then.
Ditto for "Voodoo Chile". Just an awesome set with a little of everything.

LSD is da bomb!

By the by, have the rest of you heard Jack Webb's cover of "Try a Little Tenderness"? I have it on the first Golden Throats comp.
-

The rumor (I got this from Alex Bennett years ago, no idea if it's ever been confirmed) was that Mr Webb liked boys -- very young boys. And that due to his Dragnet fame he was beloved by the LAPD, who covered up for him and made certain things disappear. The Jack Vincennes character in LA Confidential (played by Kevin Spacey in the movie) was supposedly inspired by this.

hmm, I'm dubious. I don't think that (even) the LAPD would allow this to happen without a little "payback." Not sure if prosecuting for child molestation was commonplace back then -- maybe the charge would have been "indecency" or something...? Of course, maybe Jack Webb did get the hell beaten out of him up over these alleged incidents, but seriously, why haven't more folks come forward with confirmation of this?
ETA: Now I will believe any rumor you float about Kevin Spacey! I recall a story a few years back where he got mugged in a London Park at about 3 AM. He couldn't sleep, so he took a stroll... yeah, that's it.

Bwahahaha!
same deal with Dick Button, the figure skater and ABC Sports commentator, who back in the '80s got beat up really bad in Central Park, where he was jogging... at 3am... near "The Ramble", Central Park's notorious gay cruising area.
