oh how lovely!  BOS5 the fabulous underrated Troggs.
Didn't they do "Cups and Cakes" too?  And "Listen to the Flower People".

Haha, nice.

"Jennifer Juniper" is just too precious for me.

if someone wrote it today I'd agree -- but dude it was the SIXTIES!
But it's got bassoon, oboe, flute and harp in it!  And possibly some guy playing the spoons.

I'll give a BOS to Valleri!  Great song.

So is that Mike Nesmith playing the noodly guitar, or is this before they were playing on any of their recordings?

BOS to everything on "Valleri," especially Billy Lewis's drumming.  (You didn't think that was Micky, didja?)  And of course the fabulous fretwork of Louie Shelton on the solos.

Why was the daughter at the PTA meeting, though?

'cause she was a single mom who couldn't afford a babysitter?

uber-BOS 8 and kudos to the great Tom T Hall for writing it.

She's having a little trouble holding up in those heels.  I think *she's* had a nip of gin.
