Starting with Grand Funk's contribution to great pop, Bad Time.

TANC: Last Saturday I had to drive over to the E. Bay, and so grabbed a 1975 set from about three years ago to listen to on the drive. The TOTHC was this very song.
Let's get right to it.

Oooo, a song I totally keyed on in '75: Tubes, What Do You Want From Life?

"...and a baby's arm holding an apple!"

Btw, Dave sez we're playing Spot the Vinyl today. But I don't think this is it.

I've heard it was a euphemism for the male unit, but I don't know where it came from.

More specifically, it's a description of the size of a black man's penis, from an old Lenny Bruce routine.
