except it pre-dates both.  ;)  This was supposed to be the big "skiffle" revival of 1970 but it never went beyond this one hit.

BOS/proxy of Gaz, Edwin Starr -- good GAWD y'all!

Newsflash! This set originally aired before the scope of the DB--there's only one set in there that leads with In the Summertime, and Edwin Starr is not the second song of that set, Wilbert Harrison's Let's Work Together is. So we're going back a bit here.
Let's get right to it.

you'd almost think the set-picker was lurking yesterday!  Cool, tho' -- I love surprises.

BOS3 3DN, one of my very fave songs of theirs, 2 days in a row (after hearing it on Deep Tracks yesterday). VHM Paul Williams' lyric.
