BOS CSNY "Almost Cut My Hair" ... props also to KPIG for playing "Everybody I Love You" the other day, which I hadn't heard in maore than a decade, at least.

BOS to apocalypse soul: PG&E (the long version!), with fantastic backing gospel vox from the Strawberries.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Oops, wrong fruit (a recurring theme today?): They were the Blackberries.  Per the Billboard Book of One-Hit Wonders (an entertaining read, albeit with more than a few factual and copy errors), they were a group of session singers: Vanette Fields, Clyde King, Shirley Matthews, and Lorna Willard.  The song just wouldn't have been the song without them.

Those people I recognize!  I think they have sung with Boz before too.

Three out of four of them have backed Steely Dan too--Fields, King & Matthews. Check the credits for Aja.
