A much-publicized new version of the Who's "My Generation" by a collective of old-aged pensioners, collectively known as the Zimmers, charted at No. 26 on Xphonics. It was recorded to draw attention to public prejudice against old age by a group with an average age of 79. One member is 100 years old.

A small handful of people know that Terry Jacks ("Seasons in the Sun") had a #2 hit four years prior with his then wife Susan as the Poppy Family ("Which Way You Goin' Billy?," a song that might be about a soldier choosing the Vietnam War over his wife but which I find more interesting to interpret as about a guy leaving his wife for another man. And an even smaller handful know that the Poppy Family aimed at the charts a few times, including this shoulda-been-a-bigger-hit:
The Poppy Family, "Where Evil Grows" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwO-6t_FBsY&feature=related)
I think of it as what would have happened if Buckingham and Nicks had grown up in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.

Mercy, "Love Can Make You Happy" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzoeZTFj4TA)
indeed, a cheapie race-car flick from '69. This from a review on IMDB:
"The film features the oldies warhorse, "Love Can Make You Happy" by Mercy (billed here as The Mercy Group). When I knocked around Tampa/St Pete in '92(?), the Sunday paper ran a puff piece on the composer. As the story goes, the film's producer drafted his teenage son to concoct a love song...a queer notion, given that hardly a smooch is exchanged in what amounts to 90 minutes of antisocial behavior. At the time of the article, the song still earned him five-figures in annual royalties, as he fronted a lounge band, dreaming of a comeback."

Good question. I had to consult Wikipedia on this:
"Following the album, three 45's of note, not included on the album where also released. What If We all Stopped Paying Taxes, released in 2002 just ahead of the U.S. Election, was a militant anti-war statement denouncing the Iraq War. Genuine (parts 1 & 2), in 2004 was an uncompromisingly hard funk record which firmly kept the interest of enthusiasts and their cover of Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In), released in 2005 but which was apparently recorded for a KFC commercial in 2002 but was never used."

total accident -- the song is on the UK chart that CG is counting down next week (March '74, The Hollies at #2 with "Air That i Breathe") and I figured it had to be the same song, so some Googling and... voila!

The Monkees, "Sometime in the Morning" (http://youtube.com/watch?v=Cyh3y5-fYIA)
Even though I'm old enough that I watched the Monkees in high school, I was not familiar with this song. For some reason it struck a particularly poignant emotion of how long ago that time was in my life. On a whim, I clicked on another version (http://youtube.com/watch?v=WAzl0iSMTO4) which seemed to resonate with that idea, where Rose Marie (that's her, right?) is daydreaming of her long gone youth also!
More stuff I didn't know: The song was written by Carole King/Gerry Goffin!

One of the comments several pages in mentions that Poco did a cover of this song--I assume you knew that and didn't just pull "Poco" out of midair? That's probably what I'm familiar with, as I know I've heard this song somewhere (although probably not this version).

Indeed, Poco did it on their Head Over Heels LP, released in --- TANC! --- 1975. Paging Ginger...

1. who is the lead guitarist in the first half of the song?
2. Prince was pretty awesome, and over-the-top at the same time, eh?
1. I'd thought it might have been Tim Renwick, but in looking up pictures of him to confirm, I see that it's definitely not. No idea.
2. Yeah, right on both counts. There's some argument in the comments below the video with people debating the merits of Prince's performance. I loved it myself--over the top, yes, but completely within the spirit of the song. And I loved watching Dhani Harrison watching Prince--he was just grinning like mad.
I remember this was posted on the web for a time shortly after the ceremony but got pulled down for some reason (VH1 giving their lawyers something to do, most likely). Glad it's available again.

Filmed in Switzerland, it shows the Jacksons performing with some of the most nonresponsive children on the planet, I guess the boogie didn't get them. On a quick note, it is amazing the the single didn't go gold despite its huge popularity."

Wow! Thanks for that -- a real find. *Very* mid-'70s production, and the "mellow" cover of an uptempo song (Rita Coolidge's "Higher & Higher", JT's "Handy Man") was a staple of the era.. His covers are a treat -- Dylan, Joni, he always does something interesting with other folks' material.

Man, she can sure bring it. Great voice and a rockin' guitarist to boot. I thought that first song was "What'd I Say"--which, essentially, it was. I'd guess the first clip was from the Mike Douglas show--didn't they use a lot of exclamation points in their stage sets?
And damned if she's not still alive--and playing! Per Wikipedia, she played Jazzfest in NOLa this year.

Re-Re! Beyonce and TT performed together at last year's Grammys, at which Beyonce referred to Tina as the Queen of Soul, or words to that effect, and Aretha took great public umbrage.

I think you guys have ruined Linda Ronstadt for me! I'm on a "Hurts So Bad" kick, listening to a multitude of covers (sorry, but that "please don't go please don't GO" moment is nailing me right now), and can't enjoy her version like I used to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbYurJjwk9E (doesn't help that she closes her eyes for the whole thing, refusing to engage or be engaged, so I guess she doesn't have to worry about seeing him again).

And I actually agree: They were certainly far closer to one than the Ramones, who had a long career doing exactly what they wanted to do. The Pistols were, basically, the Monkees of punk.

The writeup mentions Scientology an awful lot - I wonder if the connection is that important, or if the writer just has an issue.

One article I read said specifically that when Jett Travolta was very young and having health issues, Kelly Preston (and by implication not John) brought his condition(s) under control by following the teachings of Scientology. Much like Cruise credits Scientology with 'curing' his dyslexia.
I suppose it's only natural that the Travoltas are dealing with some loss of faith feelings right now...I just wonder what the differences are between loss of faith in L. Ron Hubbard & loss of faith in the Judaeo-Christian God.

Jim Rigsbee, the Monday-nite oldies guy on KPOO, doesn't hit the '70s too often, but last nite he floored me by playing one of my favorite forgotten 45s, 1971's "I Hear Those Churchbells Ringing" by Dusk, a lovingly retro-'60s hommage to girl-group records in general and "Chapel of Love" in particular. And lo, someone on YouTube posted the Dusk tune with a bit of the Dixie Cups inserted for reference:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAj7hV81KR8
Dusk were produced by Medress & Appell at Bell records, who had just scored with the first couple of Dawn hits; someone at Bell apparently decided "hey, we have a group called Dawn, so we should get one named Dusk". And so this short-lived retro girl-group was born. But what I didn't know until last nite was that the lead singer of Dusk was Peggy Santiglia, who had been lead singer of the Angels on "My Boyfriend's Back"! I think Gaz will especially appreciate this tune if he's never heard it.

Bet she shows up in the sequel, on Brit Folk Rock bands. The closest they came to that on this one was Jethro Tull, who kind of vacillate between Fairport Convention (they even share a couple of members) and Genesis.

Was just watching the two versions of the Lennon-McCartney tune that Gaz blogged about, and in some subsequent surfing found this version of Life is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me). I assume it was done after the fact as some of those pics post-date the song by a few years, but still a pretty good take on it, and it's a longer version than I'm used to--the lead-out is much longer, goes on beyond just the 4 Tops riff that usually ends the song.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16kh-AP4OCU&feature=channel_page
(I'd never heard either version of It's For You before. Have to say I liked the second one better, but was impressed with the tightness of 3DN's vocals in the live setting. You could tell they were really focusing on each other and getting their cues.)

Re Reunion: There really was only one way to do a video for this song, and the creator NAILED it. Right down to "RCA and all the others." (I especially loved ABBA for "honey, honey," which had never occurred to me.) And yes, to answer your question, there was a good 7-10 seconds I'd never heard before.
Re 3DN: If you ever get bored, check out some of their live clips. Their vocals are astonishingly good, and it's hard not to be transfixed by the relentless wrongness of their outfits and hairstyles. They were the anti-boyband, and their chart success makes me feel better about things.

This is where YouTube (and its users) truly shine(s). There's a similar clip of "American Pie", ticking off all the references. I wonder if someone's done the same with "I Do The Rock"?

His appearance on Letterman last nite has a lot of people saying "poor guy, he needs help" but it looks to me like Dave was in on the joke:

I'm confused. Is he having his Andy Kaufman/Tony Clifton moment?
that exact analogy has been drawn on more than one message board.

Posted this on FB too, but for posterity: the original promo clip for Murray Head's "Superstar" when it was originally released as a single in late 1969 (more than a year before the "JCS" LP appeared). This was basically Webber & Rice's "pitch" to Decca Records when they were trying to sell the idea of a rock opera about the Passion.

a hard-to-find film that got a lot of publicity when it was in production (due to the names involved) but which was deemed "unreleaseable" and barely saw the light of day -- ironically it produced the hit single "Daybreak" (NOT the Manilow tune) for Nilsson.

sorry, I'm just clip-crazy today. One of my fave obscure '60s singles, just heard on 'LNG -- 4 Jacks and a Jill, "Master Jack" -- interesting song, odd promo clip from '68. They were South African, apparently. A strange strange world indeed... I smell a possible Gaz blog post in this one.

I have that song on a Dick Bartley comp that I reviewed for AMG (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:wcfwxq9hldae) - very strange, indeed. Like if Lulu had studied under a pervy old guy instead of Sidney Poitier.

Putney Swope is one of the two movies I list as favorites on Facebook. I have the DVD and the VHS! The current Raider, Justin Fargas, is the son of 'the arab' in the movie, who you guys probably know better as Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch, a show I never saw.
I couldn't resist adding this clip:

(http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/39873000/jpg/_39873910_snoop_203.jpg)
when Swope came out in '69, I was too young to see an r or X rated movie, I caught up with it when I was in college -- but I remember there were radio commericals for it that used part of that song, with the phrase "dry hump" bleeped out!

Just posted a 2-fer on FB of the Box Tops' "Soul Deep" and the GrassRoots' "Heaven Knows", which I've always thought sounded quite similar -- they charted around the same time in '69.

I heard that the security guard he handed the bat to took it outside and just let it go. Which means that Ginobili is having to get a series of rabies vaccinations 'cause they couldn't find the bat to test it. (Standard procedure with bats, I guess.)

BART cop pushes man into window
Video shows glass shattering and injuring officer during an arrest at the West Oakland station.
(11-22) 15:22 PST OAKLAND -- A video posted online shows a BART police officer pushing a young man into a glass window during an arrest at the West Oakland station, causing the glass to shatter and the officer to suffer a serious cut on his head. Watch the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtKNoLFHomQ
The video was posted late Saturday under the title "BART cop breaks window w/drunk guy's face." This afternoon, BART officials were planning a press conference to discuss the incident, which they said happened Saturday. Neither the officer nor the man who was arrested have been identified.
BART's police force has been under intense scrutiny since an officer shot an unarmed passenger to death on New Year's Day at the Fruitvale Station. The officer, Johannes Mehserle, who later resigned, is charged with murder.

Late to the party on this, but I can see why it's so popular. Great adaptation. My personal fave part is the line "sharing his life with his monstrosity" and what happens thereafter.
I thought the repeated "Mama" bit was a clever way of avoiding the verse about, y'know, shooting a guy in the head, which is not exactly a Muppet-y thing to sing (speaking of rock songs about killing people, as we just were).

Apparently this is new. Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody!

An instant favorite - and at least 5 of my friends have posted it to their Facebook pages today. :)

Btw, this was posted on Nov 23, and it's already got 8M+ views in a week. That's big.
As viral as viral gets - they should've released it as a single on iTunes.
And yeah, re "Mama," clever way to avoid the unseemly lyrics.

i love that single drum percussive stuff, whether it's Babalu or Taiko drums or the Brazilian stuff Paul Simon hi-lited on Rhythm of the Saints. Small observation: I think the reason Desi keeps his head tipped back like that is to avoid having his hair flopping into his face.

That was pretty cool. the guy's name is Corey Vidal, a Canadian who just turned 23 last week. I reckon a member or two might even get the hots for him. But he didn't sing that, he was lipsynching from a group apparently called Moosebutter. Thank you wikipedia.

Especially for urth and any other Kinks fans: Just heard Scelsa play this on his pre-Xmas show, hadn't heard it in decades. From a long-forgotten 1977 LP called Kansas City Slickers by a band called The Leopards, this is "Dancing In the Snow" -- their lead singer does one helluva Ray Davies imitation...

Finally got a minute to check that out--you're dead on with the Kinks/Davies comparison. Someone was *way* into the Village Green/Arthur period. But they really shoulda invested in a metronome--seemed to me like the tempo kept getting faster and faster as the song progressed.
Btw, loved the choreographed routine of the two Chicago news anchors--wonder how long it took them to work that out? Almost seemed like they do that bit regularly. Very very silly.

I've seen that thingy before but no idea what it's called. Is that from Jools Holland's show, "Later"? Comcast/GE/NBC/whatevs just added the Ovation channel to my digital package (it's Ch. 270 for those with Comcast in the Bay), and they run that show. A nice surprise, for a change; they're forever adding Filipino and Asian channels I've no use for.

just getting around to this now -- great stuff! The Bob Crewe thing was NTM, as was the Glitter Band and Spin. Hagood Hardy's "Homecoming" was a cult fave at my college station (and one of those peaked-at-#41 unfortunates). "Hard Work" has always been a fave of mine. And I'm still amazed Walter Murphy's "Flight '76" didn't hit big.

Great stuff there -- I actually remember that "Try" song by Cooker and Rick Cuhna's "Yo-Yo Man" was made famous by the Smothers Brothers. I like the way Howell trades James Taylor for "Jim Croce on the stereo". But LOVE the story about how Bill Amesbury became Barbara Amesbury!

And you thought Avatar was weird: the OMGWTF of the Week is this 1988 music video for "Reach!" by the band Martini Ranch, one of whose members was Bill Paxton! And the video was directed by James Cameron! And one of the babes was Cameron's then-squeeze (and now-fellow-Oscar nominee) Kathryn Bigelow! Amazing. I actually remember the song; had no idea any of these folks were involved back then. Look for the Paul Reiser (!) cameo at around the 2:20 mark.

looks cultish ... and sounds pretty bad, frankly.
ok, seriously, the kids are cute, it's really awesome that they seem to be related and are a family, but it didn't sound that great to me. It could be the BART track whining in the back ground (and, really, how effing loud does it get in the Transbay Tube? Any time I take BART I cover my ears in that tunnel), and face it, playing there doesn't allow for mych musical nuance.

your previous posts implied some question about that. if they really need the money, in any case (my edit) then more power to them, b/c at least they are expending some effort to entertain.
another edit: I don't want you to think I'm unfeeling about folks who are on hard times. My first post about them sounding bad musically did come off like that. There's a bigger picture here that I ignored in my first post, to my detriment. (anyway, the bongos are what make it sound "cult-y" for me!)

another OMGWTF: Ace Spectrum, mid-'70s NYC soul outfit best-known for their swell mid-charting early-disco "Don't Send Nobody Else", doing a soul cover of Wacky Sedaky's "Laughter in the Rain"!

even WTF-ier: it's from an LP called Low-Rent Rendezvous -- yes, they do a soul cover of the Amazing Rhythm Aces "Third-Rate Romance" (sadly, not on the Tubes of You).

This was inspired by hearing Mr Williams talk about it on "Lost 45s" -- he said, since it was a 60-sec spot, that he was trying to describe a wedding in as few words as possible, and "white lace and promises" did the trick perfectly. Genius, really.

I stumbled upon this excellent BBC documentary from 2007 "From The Byrds to The Eagles" on the evolution of folk rock & country rock in '60s & 70s with The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, CSN&Y, Gram Parsons, Joni Mitchell, The Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Bonnie Raitt, etc. Read program summary here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/music/features/hotel-california.shtml

Thanks! Too bad the camera spends so much time on the beautiful young Paris hipsters, and not enough on the historic work of Green on the famous Les Paul that Gary Moore ended up with. For me of course, I'm more familiar with the Fleetwood Mac version, from the Fleetwood Mac in Chicago, Vol 2 disc.

also, when there's some AWESOME guitar solo and the director has no idea that the guitarist's fret hand is the one we want to see and instead shoots the picking hand, or worse, just nothing related to the solo, loike his "o" face or the crowd. BAH!

Yeah he had a lot of fun with it. Adrian is just finishing 5th, but Fallon is a K-8 the past few years (next year it becomes a 6-8 Middle School only). Anyway, after his performance one of the coolest 8th grade girls - star of the basketball team - came over and asked Adrian for a quick lesson. It was pretty funny, because he wasn't so much embarrassed as completely clueless, but since I know the girl from having reffed 4 or 5 of her games I was able to smooth it out. And at the end his classmates gave him lots of "Dude! That was so cool how Juliana came up to you after!"

in a strange coincidence, Dave had a link on fb about the beginnings of Jefferson Airplane, and I noticed a link to a John Fogerty/Jerry Garcia/Weir benefit at Oakland Stadium. A blast from the past for me, since I was the roadie for Randy Jackson that day (he was playing one of our basses.) You can actually see me in the opening second helping Weir, and occasionally in the background. I'm the huge bearded guy with a white and green Hawaiian shirt! It's actually a pretty good concert. Fogerty hadn't really been playing much at the time:

Youtube doesn't necessarily have to go away to merit heeding the titular warning of this thread --
there are plenty of other fates that may befall it that would markedly lessen its enjoyment. One
of those is already evident: the rise of advertisements, both pre-roll and popping up on the videos
themselves.

A forgotten gem that adds to my opinion that 1971 was the best year for music. Back in the day,
the whole track would be played uninterrupted on FM radio.

TANC: today is Sebastian's 74th birthday. And it's funny: his previous LP, John B Sebastian, is near the top of my list of great lost gems -- I adored it in 1970 and it got tons of NYC prog-FM play. And I saw him that August at the "Summer Festival for Peace" at Shea Stadium. But this album did not get anywhere near the same kind of exposure. I do remember hearing this wonderful 16 min suite a few times, however. Thanks -- that was lovely to revisit.

Another rare jewel... While Phil Ochs is best known for his protest songs, here he turns
his wit and lyricism to social commentary. He keenly observes various attendees at a party,
and in the end, no one escapes his scrutiny.

In reference to the title of this thread, I've noticed that Youtube now occasionally plays
two pre-roll ads, and also sometimes runs an ad after a video finishes.
