Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Music for a Blizzard: January 29, 1967-- Part 4

The sights, the sounds, the SNOW!!

STANDING IN THE SHADOWS OF LOVE-- FOUR TOPS-- (One of those great Motown groups.)

DANCING IN THE STREETS-- MAMAS AND PAPAS-- two-sided hit. The "B" side, great cover of a Motown classic.
WORDS OF LOVE-- MAMAS AND PAPAS-- The "A" side.

SO YOU WANT TO BE A ROCK AND ROLL STAR-- BYRDS-- From Younger Than Yesterday, the advance single from the upcoming album.
TELL IT LIKE IT IS-- AARON NEVILLE-- Treated to some bluesy New Orleans styling. Heart would cover this in the 80s.

DARLING BE HOME SOON-- LOVIN' SPOONFUL-- Booby Darin hit #39 with their song "Loving You." This song was hit bound.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH-- NEW COLONY SIX-- #2 in Chicago. Chicago's own. (Great then. Still Great Now.)

PUSHING TOO HARD-- SEEDS-- from Los Angeles, California.
TOBACCO ROAD-- BLUES MAGOOS-- Their great version. One of my favorite albums during the Snowstorm of 1967 was a piece of vinyl that came out in November of 1966 and I was still playing it hot and heavy here in January of '67 and it was the debut from the Blues Magoos Psychedelic Lollipop. Here, their great experimental version.
