31 March '06 - it's all too beautiful: 1968
« on: March 31, 2006, 09:52:47 AM »
it's prediction time and I'm feelin' the 60's.  It's been exactly eight weeks since our last trip to the decade, which was a Mystery Year set from '69.

So I'm officially guessing '68, but hoping more for '67 or earlier.

See, if I had caught that I might have predicted something else, and you know how my predictions have been coming true lately...

I know it's unseemly to complain during a '60s set, but "Baby Come Back" is pretty much a Katrina at this point.

Well, I haven't gotten into 2005, but I have wrapped up everything prior that is available on Darryl, and the Equals only showed up once among 9 sets in that sample.

The Beach Boys in 1968
« Reply #13 on: March 31, 2006, 10:18:27 AM »
down at UCSB, I was training to be a DJ, and there was this older oddball student who seemed right out of some movie, all nerdy and big WLNGish voice.  He always raved about the Beach Boys version of Cottonfields, back when the BB's were kinda passé
