And yet another for Robert Knight, Everlasting Love. Unmistakably off vinyl, too.
Let's get right to it.

Dandy lion don't tell no lies!  Timothy Leary, on the other hand, did.

Major props to Dave for underplayed Rascals, "A Girl Like You," another one I remember from the mid-'70s (this one, from the radio of my grandfather's cigar-stanky 1972 Vega auto).

Ups to Gaz for pegging this one--I have little memory of it. God bless your grandfather and his reeking Chevy.

Think Dave'll pass up a chance to play the Beatles? (I'm guessing not--hoping for AYNIL for Tune # 10.)

LOL: Diana as debutante scorned.  That affronted gasp before the refrain cracks me up.  Only a half-step away from "The Happening."

OMG!

My Folks had the Up With People album, and we listened to it constantly during my childhood.

Maybe the biggest flashback I've ever had during a 10@10.

And now for something COMPLETELY different: the stunningly mature-for-a-14-year-old Janis Ian.  This song really gets to me, right down to the defiant keyboard squiggles that inspired Paul Revere to do the same at the end of "Indian Reservation."

VVHM to Up With People. The last gasp of the folkie era.

And Dave closes on a pleasant, redemptive note, as Donovan produces Zen koans.  Yay for mulitculti: "First, there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is."

Thanks, Dave.

Indeed very nice to hear. And to think what the Allman Bros. would do with this song's basic riff.

That was awesome too.

Fantastic set.  Wish I hadn't missed the back-announce though.

Yes, Dickie Betts on lead guitar might sound pretty good...
