GET BACK-- BEATLES-- A new Beatles 45, and, as was so often the case, John had one side and Paul the other, and, as so often was the case toward the end, anyway, John had the "B" side.
DON'T LET ME DOWN-- BEATLES-- "B" side. Billy Preston was featured on the keyboards on both sides.
I CAN HEAR MUSIC-- BEACH BOYS-- From the 20-20 album. Old Ronettes song, produced and sung by the late-great Carl Wilson.
PINBALL WIZARD-- WHO-- The streamin', waxin', flaxin' sounds from the upcoming Tommy album.
HAIR-- COWSILLS-- From the Off-Broadway musical. (led the way for "The Partridge Family" on TV. Kind of sad what has happened to the boys in the family.)
HAWAII-FIVE-O-- VENTURES-- Book 'em Stroudo! One of the big TV shows back then and today.
THESE EYES-- GUESS WHO-- debuting on RCA Records with their first hit. (Oh, those Canadians.)
THE BOXER-- SIMON AND GARFUNKEL-- One of two #1 songs in Chicago. This one #1 at WLS. The #1 at WCFL was "Guitarzan" by the always-out-to-tickle-your-funny-bone, Ray Stevens.
"Though My Stoey's Seldom Told." --RoadDog

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.
