"Boy, have we got a vacation for you!"

What the heck was that!?  

And for that matter what's this tune with the jazzy organ intro?  Sounds a little like Ambrosia...


See above for movie.  This is someone's version of "Happiness is Just 'round the Bend", but I'm not sure who.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

I loved the extended instro-intro on this "Happiness" song, initially misidentifying it as the Main Ingredient; I don't know who it is and the vox are kind of disappointing me.  Again with that Rhodes piano sound.

MI did the original, no? Or am I wrong?  This is kinda Brian Auger-ish.

Kudos on the Brian Auger!  I gotta download this ASAP.

VHM to a Stones song from GHS that I haven't heard in ages.


Which was it?


the one about winter and keeping warm. I'm blanking on the title.


Ya mean the one called "Winter"?  :wink:

Seriously, that has to be one of the least-played great Stones songs ever.
Let's get right to it.

It was buried in my brain from back in the day; that version got some FM play in NY, tho' it was far from a hit.  I agree with Gaz: would that we could unite the Auger instrumentation with Cuba Gooding Sr's vocal on the original.
