BOS2 and proxy of shray for Mason Profitt's great "Two Hangmen", a Narada (never got any notice from NYC radio) that I'm glad to have discovered via Bob.

BOS3 (duh) The Mighty Zep.  If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving Percy.

OMG, it's a Zep twin-spin: "Thank You" into "Whole Lotta Love".

"Winchester -- it's a whole 'nuther smoke!"  If only it had been followed by a whole 'nuther Dylan, but we get "Lay 'Trina Lay" instead.

BOS4 Beach Boys covering the Ronettes superbly. I remember this getting a smattering of Top 40 airplay at the time, and being crushed that it wasn't a much bigger hit.

OMFG! BOS5 Neil -- preach it, Brotha Love!  What a fabulous record.  This automatically elevates this to one of Bob's best 1969 efforts.

"I'm your penis" -- a godness on a mountin' top?

I have a book of unintentionally funny headlines, and one of my favorites is:

Teenage Prostitution Problem Mounting

(and it goes well with my avatar, no?)
"Music is the Earth, People are the Flowers, and I am the Hose."
