LAWD! KPOO celebrtaes Etta James' birthday and I'm hearing her fabulous cover of "Take it to the Limit".
-
JJ plays Freda Payne, "You Brought the
Tylenol Joy".
-
'LNG plays the 4 Seasons' little-heard "Watch the Flowers Grow" -- haven't heard it in ages, and it occurs to me the 5th Dimension shoulda recorded it.

"Now try to be calm, kids
And don't look so sad
Just cause she is leaving
Cher'll still be your... dad?"
Ms. Cherilyn Pierre Bono Allman's finest gender-bending hour, one I never tire of.

There is so much that is baffling about that. It would have been easy to alter the lyric to the wife's POV. And why on earth does it spiral off into that drunken samba swirleroo at the end, as if the perky Herb Alpert castanuttery on the bridges weren't goofy enough?
PS: Here she is with what are indeed creepy mannequins:

per Wiki:
at the end of the song, the wild, fast sounds of a jazz saxophone playing were reminiscent of a Spike Jones recording, suggesting the fussing that the kids would be doing as a result of the separation and the divorce of the couple.

NTM: Bobby Taylor & the Vancouvers covering the Tempt's "It's Growing", funkier and less lush than the orig.
-
wow -- 'LNG gives me Dionne's "Valley of the Dolls" theme. Been a while since I've heard this. One of DW's rare non-Bacharach hits.
-
wow, just heard Sparks' "Amateur Hour" on Offshore.... talk about a graet band that never got their due in the US.

A day after hearing a terrif cover of Joe South's "Walk A Mile in My Shoes" by Otis Clay, here's Mr South himself with "Games People Play". And iirc he also wrote "Rose Garden", which we heard on Casey's '71 chart this week.

YRC.
(Some awful misuses of maxims in that one, though: "You gotta look before you leap / Still waters run deep" - Que?)

in other words, if you don't look before you leap you could end up neck deep in the Big Muddy.

Barry Scott may be completely nuts (politically) but his show is still utterly fab -- Merry Clayton's terrif version of "Baretta's Theme" was a nice surprise, and now it's a 1968 yearbook that includes the Cowsills' sunshiny "We Can Fly".
ETA: Holy crap! The Soul Survivors sound-alike "Expressway" follow-up, "Explosion in Your Soul" -- I have not heard this in forever. And now the Buckinghams' wonderful "Susan", who's confusin' when she's losin' -- maybe she's been boozin'?
-
Totally NTM: Leslie Pearl, "If the Love Fits, Wear It" -- a jingle singer, she was, and this got to #28 in '82! How did I miss that one?
