Going Back to 1967-- Part 2

The songs played on Ten at Ten. They have one show in the am and then rebroadcast it on the pm.

NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN-- MOODY BLUES--
I THINK WE'RE ALONE-- TOMMY JAMES & THE SHONDELLS-- If Bubble Gum could be compared to a fine wine, there you go.

HEY JOE- JIMI HENDRIX-- This week is the 40th anniversary of his death.
HAPPY TOGETHER-- TURTLES-- Knocked the Beatles' "Penny Lane" off the charts in February.

DAYDREAM BELIEVER-- MONKEES-- Hot #1 December 1967.
FOOL ON THE HILL-- BEATLES-- Paul McCartney's song from the "Magical Mystery Tour" album.

BACK DOOR MAN-- DOORS-- Channels Howling Wolf from their '67 debut.
FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH-- BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD-- written by Steven Stills.

HAPPY JACK-- WHO-- Top 3 song in UK, #24 in the US.
COLD SWEAT-- JAMES BROWN-- Funk Masterpiece. What does James Brown feed his horse? H'AAAY!!

Listeners vote each day for their favorite song. This day's contest was won by "Nights in White Satin." I told Liz because this is one of her two all-time favorite songs. The other one is "Daydream Believer" which was also on the Top Ten today. I asked her which one she would vote for and she said she couldn't make up her mind.

I voted for "For What It's Worth" as I am a big Buffalo Springfield fan.
