I'm assuming it is, since an Oscar-themed set is likely tomorrow.

Maximum tremolo from the Equals.  HM for "Baby Come Back".

And now a poor man's "Dance to the Music".  Sorry Archie, but this just isn't a good song.  I do get kind of a perverse kick out of its silliness.  Has anybody ever seen someone doing the Tighten Up?

I was about to say!  I don't know how to do it.

WOS to Jack Webb's hypocrisy in justifying alcohol over pot.

I agree, Jack Webb -- "LSD is da bomb!" LOL!

And Ted Nugent *used* to agree...

I think that was a (noticably faster) re-recording.

The Nuge has always implausibly claimed that he's never done a drug - that it was the other guys in the band who were into that.

The Moodies were great musicians but hokey poets.
