London swings ---> The Kinks "Dedicated Follower Of Fashion"

What's "in" in London --> "Dedicated Follower of Fashion". "England Swings" woulda fit nicely in that segue.  But BOS6 Kinks, pulling their frilly nylon panties right up tight.

I still think it's funny that they were played back to back right after I typed the quiz. Well, if you're going to be predictable, you might as well go Mount Rushmore (although this California Dreaming is a bit too 103.7).

Truth be told, this set hasn't had much in the way of deeper cuts. The Ike and Tina tune is about as close as it's come and that's not terribly deep.

Batman closes things out ---> The Marketts "Batman" during the backsell

Did Mr Davies invent the word "Carnabetian"? (I googled it and discovered there's a FB group called "The Carnabetian Army Marches On")

uber-uber-LN-infinity: "Cali Dreaming".

I understand what you mean, but there's something about this song.  I have heard it a jillion times, and our band plays it too.  The chords are anything but simple, and the rhythm is deceptive.  Audiences always respond with a certain excitement when they recognize what we're playing.  I also really like the Beach Boys version with McGuinn on 12-string solo.

Although pleasant, this was a set that colored completely within the lines.

Newlywed Game --> Ike & Tina "River Deep Mountain High" (wrong version, which has happened before).

I finally checked out the Soundcloud, and see what you mean.  I really prefer the Phil Spector version, which woulda been BOS for me.
