OMFG: BOS5 Ms Nyro's orig "Stoned Soul Picnic". Trains of possum, er, I mean blossoms!

"Atlantis" was a hit in the spring of '69  -- I meant to point that out when someone requested it on FB. But here it is anyway.

Eff Buddy Hackett -- my mom says she and my father once encountered him on a cruise ship in the hallway or something, and they tried to engage him, but he was dismissive.  yes. it's an unfair assessment based on one little encounter where a non-celeb expects the celeb to be "on," but I'm taking my moms' side.

I wonder if Donovan and Al Stewart ever shared the stage?  That would be one softly-spoken, affected, sibilant set!

Time to retire this Barbarella clip.

BOS6 Judy Collins covering Joni. Gawd how I loved this back then.

You're both right: it was # 1 on U.S. R&B chart, but hit #9 on the U.S. Top 100 singles.

Actually, pretty much any Beatles #1 song would qualify for Rod's suggested category.

Also:

Rock The Casbah
Can't Get No Satisfaction
Electric Avenue
Every Breath You Take



Hotel California
Black Magic Marker Woman/ Oye Como Va
Every Red Hot Chili Peppers song
Magic Carpet Ride

The lady who requested Hey Jude reminds me of Paula Deen!

rare Jimi? BOSFRA.
Jimi - Let The Good Times Roll (was a request on AL's FB)

My first fb suggestion ever to get played.  But then, I rarely make one, and usually at 9am the day of when I do.
I'm glad she played it for you, I saw your fb request; maybe I'll get to hear it tonight.  Still trying to finish my grades!
