Worst Person Ever (Sixties Division): Charles Manson.

OMG! BOS2 PP&M, giving John Denver some of his first residuals.

btw, Johny Winter will be at the Sausalito Art Festival this Sunday. 
also, btw: John Waters is lobbying for the release of one of the Mason Family convictees,  Leslie Van Houten.  His fixation on all things weird brought him to investigate the Murders and he concluded that she really was a pawn that qualifies for parole at this point.  She may have been under Charles' spell, but she's not the same kind of criminal.

interesting chart history on this one, kind of the inverse of Zager & Evans.  Peter, Paul & Mary had 19 Billboard Hot 100* chart hits in an eight year period, and, after finally hitting #1 with this song, never charted again.

*including the rare feat of having a song peak at #100: "The Other Side Of This Life".

Leaving On A Jet Plane is one of those songs I can't sing without tearing up a little.

I love John Waters but his timing couldn't be worse -- no judge is gonna give a murderer "compassionate parole" when the world is freaking out about Scotland giving that Lockerbie guy the same.

BOS4 Stones "Love in Vain". Gawd I lurved me some Let it Bleed, which I got for Xmas that year.

Am on a different computer & don't have my Db handy, but iirc, Dave rarely played Stones in '69 sets, so this is probably a bustout.

that was a TV clip montage worthy of Dave.  I was only a little boy, but I think my first crush was on Karen Valentine.

That ABC "meet us in September" jingle is worthy of a Gaz sunshine-pop mixtape!  Gawd I lurved me some Room 222

uber-BOS5 to "Sweet Caroline", Sawx connotations notwithstanding.

I've always loved the way "Sweet Caroline" sounds like it was conceived as the follow-up to "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show", but ended up being a much bigger hit after "BLTSS" (which the label expected to be a smash) underperformed.

BOS6 and proxy of Cairo to DCT with BS&T, sounding great today even tho' I've heard it a bazillion times.

As usual, AL starts out Moreyesque and then detours into bustouts'n'rarities.
