Truly.  I haven't gotten to listen much this week, so hoping for some fun today.  Please, no Mountain.

I couldn't tell if this was theirs or Wilbert Harrison's -- this isn't "Kermit" singing lead. ;)

Knowing my pathetic record for inaccuracy, I guess we'll find out!  Wikipedia says it's '69

BOS1 Doors, "Waiting for the Sun"

Someone on FB requested the Doors "The Soft Machine" and (a) I guess they meant "Soft Parade", which (b) was from '69.

BOS2 Melanie/Hawkinses. Could we get the songs-about-Woodstock trifecta?

BOS to Melanie and the Edwin Hawkins Singers.  I read somewhere that this single was culled from a 7-minute version, which I'd love to hear someday.

By that, you mean "Woodstock" and "Who'll Stop the Rain"?  Or were there others?

Yup. And I think I posted that looong Melanie version here last year. Wait -- this may be it!
