OMGWFTLOL! "Life & Death in G & A", by Abaco Dream -- a Sly Stone compo & production (rumor was that it really *is* Sly under an alias) . Haven't heard this in ages. Got some NY airplay in '69 and I never understood why it wasn't a hit.

Treat-of-the-Day 2: Electric Indian's "Keem-O-Sabe". The intro is quite similar to "Tusk", which I thought it was for a sec.

NTM: an earlier version of "Candida" by The Corporation (apparently not the Motown producing team of the same name) which Tony O heard and took to Bell records, who liked the song but not the vocals and suggested he re-record it himself. And the rest, as they say...

a fab '60s twin-spin: the GrassRoots' forgotten "Where Were You When I Needed You?" followed by Kenny & the Edition, droppin' in and droppin' acid.
