More Songs From Stroud. These were what were playing on our radios 42 years ago in Chicago. That would be on the twin AM giants: WCFL and WLS. Sure miss them.
GREEN TAMBOURINE-- LEMON PIPERS-- one hit wonder in the top ten, or, as Barney Pip (local dj legend) used to call them, the lemon Pippers. (Big-time psychedelic music.)
I THANK YOU-- SAM AND DAVE-- brand new. (One of my favorite soul bands. I got to see them at the Cubby Bear by Wrigley Field once.)
HELLO GOODBYE-- BEATLES-- The "A" side of their current hit (Did they ever have just a one-sided hit?)
I AM THE WALRUS-- BEATLES-- The "B" side. (Was Paul dead? He was "spotted" along Route 66 a couple years ago.))
WEAR YOUR LOVE LIKE HEAVEN-- DONOVAN-- a groovy little tune (The Don Man getting psychedelic. Imagine that?)
TOMORROW-- STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCK-- their follow up to "Incense and Peppermint." "What hookah were they smoking to come up with that name?)
The Memories, the Memories! --RoadDog
HEARD IN 1955: Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging 7 cents a letter?
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.
