Continuing with the Rock and Roll Roots Show.
SLIP AWAY-- CLARENCE CARTER-- Great R&B artist. Greg Allman Band would cover it in the 80s on their "I'm No Angel" album.
DREAM A LITTLE DREAM-- MAMAS AND PAPAS-- Old standard with Mama Cass on lead vocals.
INDIAN LAKE-- COWSILLS-- Perfect summer fare from the family Cowsill.
JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF YOUR MIND-- AMBOY DUKES-- Band out of Detroit released this single from the upcoming album of the same title.
DOWN ON ME-- BIG BROTHER AND THE HOLDING COMPANY-- This tune had been released as a single in 1967 the first time around without much success. Now that Big Brother and vocalist Janis Joplin had played at Monterrey Pop Festival, there was all this buzz about the awesome new vocalist and they had just released a brand new album for Columbia, "Cheap Thrill." Their old label, Mainstream, sensing that this was going to be huge, decided to re release "Down on Me" at the same time. This new album would feature the big hit "Piece of My Heart."

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
