Another BOS, John Fred and his Playboy band -- one of the most glorious OHW's in all of pop.


agreed, and not many of them depend so heavily on their string arrangements as this one does.

BOS #4 the Mustang, and #5 the Stones.


I was at a red light behind a brand new Mustang last week, with custom plates letting me know that this was Stacy's GT.  But what was funny the licens plate frame which read:

I know, I know,

So which is worse, a 'toothless biddy hag' or a 'slack-hearted mama with a face like a gent'?

Little Steven played this Sunday nite -- and pointed out that "only in the '60s" could something this wacko be a #1 hit.


Oh, I disagree: It would have been as big in 1973-74.

Top 40db has it as "bearded", but biddy works for me too.

God I hate W!

But the "Continuing Saga of Bungalow Bill" is such a nice end to this set.  Dang me if this isn't one of Bob's best.

Speaking of W, have you been reading Doonesbury this week?  If not go back & do so.  Brilliant stuff.

I never knew that was Yoko -- I figured it was Ringo doing an old lady's voice!

That was Set of the Week, so far.

and tomorrow (if the Thursday stream cooperates): '72.
