The Peak, 10/1/07: 1968
« on: October 01, 2007, 07:59:57 AM »
Sorry to have missed this, tho' i'd have to give Dave's Friday "classic" the edge...

Simon & Garfunkel America
Cream White Room
Tommy James And The Shondells Crimson And Clover
Rolling Stones Street Fighting Man
Mother Earth Down So Low
Who Magic Bus
Doors Love Street
Max Frost & the Troopers Shape of Things to Come
Beatles Hey Jude
Jimi Hendrix Gypsy Eyes

But major kudos on the Mother Earth -- a forgotten gem to be sure.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Listening to the replay at work.  The Mother Earth was FANTASTIC; I don't think I'd heard that before.  We also got a nice long clip of Wild in the Streets before the Max Frost tune.  That movie's due for a midnight cult revival, don'tcha think?

The lead singer's name is Tracy Nelson.  Why she didn't have a solo career on a par with Ronstadt or Raitt is a mystery (either Linda or Bonnie or possibly both recorded covers of "Down So Low", iirc)
