Beatles (yay), "GM,GM".  Wow, where did Bob find this commercial for the Chicago Trib's story on the Cryan Shames?

Spencer Davis (feat little Steve), "Gimme Some Lovin'", VHM.

BOS to "Let's Live for Today," mildly ironic advice to someone still in his PJs as he's typing.

PS: The Cryan' Shames' "Sugar and Spice" is one of the worst songs ever.

I didn't get back here in time to anticipate the Joan of Arc joke.  ;)  BOS2 to 4T's, and HM to the Stones spending some time together.

as I always say: nothing like a millionaire songwriter teaming up with a millionaire pop group to complain about conspicuous consumption and conformity!. But BOS5 anyway.

Yeah, the guitarist; a name I'd never heard before - Creed Bratton.  Crosspost to the "I Didn't Know That!" thread?

Well, obviously he's *IN* Chicago, but still, it's an old local commercial (that probably only ran for one week in 1967) and those are not always easy to come by.  Odd that he didn't actually paly a CS song in the set.

Okay, so maybe you didn't read his bio on the website.  He's not just *IN* Chicago, he's *IN* the Cryan' Shames!  They still perform & for some years now Bob's been their lead singer.

Thought that had come up before.

I don't remember this coming up!  Oopsie - if Bob lurks here, he probably doesn't like me anymore.   :-X
