uber-LN: "Itchykoo Park". It's all too overplayed.

I'll give The Association a BOS. Haven't heard "Windy" in a very long time.

I'm with ya. and BOS3 "Wild Honey", tho' it's not exactly a rarity.

This is one of those "The Sixties for Dummies" sets so far. And I have to bail at 10:30 so I bet i miss whatever semi-rarity may be in store.

BOS4 the fab "Live For Today" -- not often I hear the GrassRoots in 2 diff 10@10s in one day.

"I need to feel you INSIDE of me!" OK, bub, whatever you want.

Two! Three! Four!

was nice to listen via iPhone as I drove around the lake.  Lost the signal during Jackie Wilson!
