SHoot, just got in & I don't think I've ever heard it without the ooga chuckas.

But here's the Buffalo Springfield, BOS from me.

BOS2 Buf Springfield, "I Am a Child".  

Bob mentioned the Airplane doing "Crown of Creation" on the Smothers Brothers Show -- I remember that vividly, Grace was wearing some kind of weird blue makeup.

Since I am one, you know it gets a BOS from me.  In fact since I got in everything does.

Damn, this has been an awesome set, and that MLK clip clinches it.  Oswald may really have killed JFK by himself, but James Earl Ray was set up.

Nice tidbit on Masekela playing horn on "So You Wanna Be  A Rock 'N Roll Star", I never knew that.

Aired on 12/15/68, and it was actually blackface, with Grace also holding up a black-gloved "Black Power" salute at the end like the Olympain sprinters.

They were still working out the kinks of Color TV in '68 :wink:   They also did "Lather" on that show.  Those were the days...
