The Drive, 06/21/07: It's 1967!!!
« on: June 21, 2007, 08:19:28 AM »
We've heard some great ones already -- "I Dig Rock & Roll Music," "Pushin' Too Hard," "Foxy Lady" -- but within the 10-way tie, BBBOS to "Strawberry Fields Forever," the B-side of the greatest double-sided single in pop history.

PS: I just bought R.E.M.'s cover of "#9 Dream" from the Darfur benefit CD.  Very pretty, even if it was probably recorded in one take, with minimal accompaniment.

"Educated at Woodstock," that Soul Man was ahead of his time.

From an Alabama Song to a Sunset Strip song.  What's that sound?

Happy Jack gets some Repsect, and with that, we're out.

(Oops, missed the TOTHK: the Youngbloods' "Get Together.")

Fine set.
