Dear gawd, I haven't heard this Engelbert H tune since '69!

and now here's Donald Peers (who?) with "Please Don't Go" which sounds like an Engelbert reject.

Ha! Greg on CGSS gives us "Westbound #9" for the 2nd time in as many days. Let's look down Bonnie Sue's low-cut dress!

TANC -- KPOO's JJ must be reading Gaz's mind: he gives us the 5th Dimension's 1970 version of "Puppet Man", and it surely is superior to Tom Jones's cover a year later.  And it's followed by the Isley's unfairly forgotten "What It Comes Down To", the follow-up to "That Lady", which was a Top 5 R&B single but failed to make the Pop Top 40.

"The bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle"?  Actually, nearly each one I've seen has been a slate gray.  Nevertheless, glad Barry Scott trotted this one out tonight.

Followed by a major favorite of mine, "Let Me" by Paul Revere & the Raiders (a/k/a Pink Puzz, as they ID'd themselves on the initial vinyl press to reclaim their garage cred).

Barry's on a roll!  He followed that up with (non-nee Mama) Cass Eliot's "Getting Better," used to fabulous effect in one of my all-time favorite movies, Beautiful Thing.
