But is it a classic or did Dave put one in the can for us?
-
I realize this may be blasphemy- but Mungo Jerry's "In the Summertime"? It kinda annoys me.

Can't quite say that, but it has become quite the katrina. I wouldn't miss it if he'd started out with something else--say, Everything is Beautiful, by Ray Stevens.
But who did that version of Let's Work Together? If it was Canned Heat, it wasn't the version I'm used to hearing.
VHM Rare Earth.
-
Damn, quiet here today for a '70 set--just me and Beej so far, and we're into the 4th tune--oh well.
Hey--I just hit 1100 posts.
Cool.
(With apologies to Mshray and Beej.)

Betcha it was Wilbert Harrison, but I can't say for sure.

but at least it's the loooooooooooooong version of Oh Well.
-
The internet stream sucks for me today.
-
A VHM for Paul, a song that would have fit in well on the White Album.
-
Well, here's Paulie--wonder if we'll hear the Beatles proper as well? Or other solo works?
Btw, noticed that both the Hollies and Neil Diamond versions of He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother charted in 1970--numbers 7 and 20, respectively.
Lucretia MacEvil? Again? It ain't quite Katrina MacEvil yet, but it does seem like I've heard this a few times in the last few months.
-
LOL! "Lucretia McEvil"- easily one of the silliest song titles and/or names in rock & roll.
But, hey- she's Irish. So, that's cool.

actually, her mother was irish. her father was scottish...

i thought sesame street debuted in '69, dude.
maybe he's just referencing kermie's jam, though...or something much more specific. like that.
-
This Sesame Street medley is cool--but I wanted to hear all of It Ain't Easy Bein' Green.
(Bet if Dave were actually taking BOS votes, it'd win.)

I won tix for a show at the GAMH on Annalisa's My 3 Songs yesterday. Geoff you want to go? We could get an extra for your wife no doubt.
-
This beverage medley is kinda cool too--pepsi, coke and Hershey's Instant. Dave's busting out a few new clips!

Betcha it was Wilbert Harrison, but I can't say for sure.
Well done, pard--it was indeed Mr. Harrison. Very cool!

GAH! Stupid internet cut out on me during the back-announce. The Crows?

Sorry to be tardy -- %#@!! 10:00 meeting.
was that Crow (in which case it was either "Evil Woman" or "Cottage Cheese") or was it Stone the Crows?
-
I believe it was The Crows- "Cottage Cheese". Cool tune. Never heard it before.

Thanks for the invite, but I'll be camping at Portola Redwoods SP this weekend!
-

that's Crow. "Cottage Cheese" is an obscurity but Dave's hauled it out on more than a few occasions. A Narada to me, I was listening to prog FM pretty heavily in 1970 and I dion't remember hearing it then.
Bonus track: "Ripple".
off to CGSS!

My addled memory out here is that the Wilbert Harrison original was a pretty big hit, and Canned Heat's cover (and I liked Canned Heat) was just that, a cover. I had no idea it was bigger.
-

As much as I love this song, I never think of 1970 when I hear it. It seems so out of place amidst the other songs. Perhaps it's because the song has grown on me so much over the years, it's not about 1970 to me.

interestingly, neither was huge, but it was Canned Heat who charted slightly higher:
Canned Heat #26; Harrison #32
I remember the Harrison version getting more airplay, including Top 40 play in NYC.

I was here in spirit. No privacy to log in.

Listening to the replay. Safe to say this was a new set that Dave recorded ahead of time, and not a "classic"? I cannot recall him playing the Wilbert Harrison version of "Let's Work Together" in ages (or "in yonks" as Greg would say on CGSS).
BOS (tie): Macca, "Every Night" and BS&T "Lucretia McEvil" ('cause she just so damn BAD -- and so is Dave for truncating it. Sounds like it's off vinyl too).
-
BOS to Sesame Street, I say. Although I wasn't born until '72, this show was *hugely* influential on me, along with the Electric Company and Really Rosie w/ Chicken Soup. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The '70s were the golden age of children's education.
BOS2 to "Stoned Love," atcha.
-
ah, but Dave makes up for cutting "Lucretia" short by giving us the looong version of "Stoned Love"!

So what was the general feeling about the Supremes' prospects post-Diana when this and "Up the Ladder to the Roof" came out? Had people written the band off? These still made Top 10 or close, but I never heard them until I was in my mid 20s. Wondering what the Supremes were seen as in '70-'71.

But did Sesame St really have the effect it was supposed to have? All those kids (especially poor/minority kids) who were supposed to go to school with a head start at reading -- did they? I've never heard of any study that was done. Seems like nothing really changed.

I think folks were pleasantly surprised -- remember, Diana's solo debut, "Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)" peaked at #20 and was considered a stumble, which is why they pulled out all the stops for "Ain't No Mountain". Whereas "Up the Ladder" and "Stoned Love" were considered proof that Motown still had the stuff (or at least capable writer/producers).

It did for me, but then, I was very precocious. (Impatient to wait for school, I taught myself the times-tables when I was 4.) My gut feeling is that the show intended for parents to use it as a springboard to their own educating efforts, but parents opted to let the TV be a *replacement of* their teaching rather than an *adjunct to* it.

Times tables at 4? Yikes.
I knew how to read before I went to school (my mom read the comics to me and I just kinda picked it up; seems amazing to me looking back but at the time it was no big deal). So I was quite bored by Dick-and-Jane in first grade.
