Dr Smith, everyone's favorite sniveling homo!

Mine is still C-3P0.

according to Wikipedia, this would be First I Look at the Purse by the Contours


also according to me.  Covered well by JGeils years later.
I too am familiar with J. Geils; never heard the original.

a staple of KDIA when I first moved here in '91.  I learned so much from that fabulous station.

Did Don Fardon (or JD Loudermilk or whoever wrote it) steal the melody of "Indian Reservation" from this tune?

which is why I'm taking time before posting.  It would appear this is You Shouldn't Do That by the Birds.  UK band w/Ronnie Wood

It's all right, AL -- you can go to 11 or 12 today and we won't complain.

Oops  -- it was the Sorrows, "Take a Heart". Still say it sounded a LOT like "Indian Reservation".  Little Steven is the only person I've ever heard play the UK Birds on the radio.

I think the online Technicolor Web of Sound site is the first place I heard UK Birds (Say Those Magic Words was the song).  Great set!     BOS Kinks, Dylan and everything else..

When the Beatles tune came on, it struck me that many of these songs were probably originally mono.  I was listening in headphones and the stereo mixes on the early stuff isn't the subtlest.   AL should have played all the mono mixes on a Monday and called it ... Mono Monday!

Just another mono Monday...  (whoo-ooo-ooh...)

Hey!  Geoff got a mention from AL just past the 1 PM hour, when she cited his FB memory of 1965: visiting Russian River as a kid and "hearing this next song on the BIG JUKEBOX!"

Then, after a lengthy commercial break, she played Dylan's Like a Rolling Stone

thanks Geoff!
