Doors BOS, hands down

Easily. A '68 set with 2 bustouts is impressive these days. Despite several uber-cliche choices, this was swell.

AL sez Doors and Sly tie for BOS.

FP sez the set was "just OK... nothing special". Alrighty then...

ETA: Why do I suspect tomorrow we'll get 2001?

BOS2 the 'oo, "Substitute" Hardly rare but one of my fave lyrics ever. I look all white but my dad was black!

A fellow on FB pointed out that this is a '66 song, which is when it was initially released, and I couldn't find anything in a cursory web search to tie it to '68.

yeah, AL alluded to it in her backsell; something about "it got put on the '68 pile" or something.

This didn't trip my wrongyeardar because I got it confused with The Seeker, a Who song which came out in a later year (1970) than I had originally thought.
