Seems like it's inevitable that whenever AL announces a Mystery Year and includes a video touting some aspect of mystery, someone misses the point, guesses the year of said video, and then it's katie bar the door as the suggestions start flying from all quarters.

More evidence that a large percentage of fogheads are kinda clueless.
Let's get right to it.

Ok, I admit that I was fooled, by the fact that the video was from a certain year. I guess I was just so eager to request "Sugarfree".

But at least I didn't request anything after AL herself said it wasn't 1987.

Hopefully the 'clueless' charge will be dropped.  ;D

You are acquitted. Mistaken identity! Leading the witness!

Some day I'm going to request "Walking on Sunshine" in 1983 or 87(!) just to see if you guys will kick me out of the club.   ;D

We are in 1967.  The other day I was just listening to a '67 set that Tinka recorded for me last year, and this was there.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

the orig "message to Rudie" -- Dandy Livingstone! BOS1.  AL has played this before.

Ah, I see Gaz figured it out.  Well, AL has plenty of '67 "suggestions" in her notebook.

BOS2 "Gimme Little sign" -- AL sporting some (Brenton) Wood!

heh, after hearing this MI clip I was going to say she might play Heroin, which was released in 67, too:

A band in need of a metronome.

I thought he was saying "I'm white and foamy, man" with a weird accent.  :)

Sounds great today, though, metronome be damned. I've never liked much of anything LReed, but I guess the times are a-changing.
