27 July 2007 - it's 1968 (as I'd hoped!)

Guess I better do a play by play:

Sam & Dave were the TOTHK, followed by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown, and now we've got the Beatles (yay!) Revolution.

Dave's been playing some between song clips of a Vietnam era USO DJ playing songs for the troops in 'Nam. She's obviously reading off a script.

BOS2 (after CWOAB), Max Frost & The Troopers. Shape of Things to Come!!

ETA: Ah, I see you guys finally got your streams going. Whew!
Let's get right to it.

WooHoo!  Max Frost & the Troopahs!  BOS one of the great one-offs of all time, and one of the best songs about "revolution" this side of, well, "Revolution". And it was written by Mann & Weill!

I don't really remember hearing this song in '68, but pretty much only in a 10@10 context.  Was it really a hit, and not just a noteworthy song from a silly movie?

A Top 20 single in Billboard, got a decent amount of airplay in NYC and on CKLW Detroit (which is where Dave heard it, no doubt).

BOS2 from me -- if this isn't a bustout it's surely a rarity.

I probably just wasn't listening to AM radio at the time.
