One of the best renditions of a Beatles song there, bannork.  Here's another great Spooky Tooth song off of their '68 It's All About LP.

ah, just a buncha crazy kids...when yer that age you believe that you can live forever...besides the old chevy van that we were in could only do about 50mph...believe that we had taken some MDMA that night...with some red wine and a couple of cases of Molson Canadian...and with the lovely Colette, a 17 y.o. runaway from Quebec that my pal found wandering along the road in Williams Lake...she was a dish and serene amongst the madness...

 

I was showing her some chords on the Yamaha dreadnought that I bought locally that summer and I left it with her when it was time for me to go back to California...always wondered later on how she got on with her guitar playing...

What a groove Traffic would lay down. And Winwood's voice. Absolute class.

Nice picks, albertik.

 

 

 

Quicksilver messenger  service  "Fresh Air"

Actually any Nam war era songs are the best. At least while I was traveling north into Laos.

FYI, nobody here likes QSMS.  555555555  Tongue in cheek.

 

 

I'll throw in another QSMS.

 

 

Forgot to add thanks to contributors in this thread. It's been great to reminisce on days gone by.

I never got over the hippie dream of peace and love. It was so powerful back then in my youth. The ensuing commercialization was inevitable, but the seed had been planted and could never go away.

What everyone wants to know, bannork, is how many seeds you've planted back then?  Come now, bannork, don't be bashful.

 

 

Grateful Dead & Janis Joplin performing Turn On Your Lovelight at the Euphoria Ballroom in Pasadena, Texas on July 16, 1970.

 

 

Grateful Dead performing Eyes Of The World live at Winterland Arena, San Francisco, CA, December 29, 1977.

 

 

Edison Lighthouse with Love Grows from '69.

 

 

The very forgettable My Baby Loves Loving by the White Plains.  Some things are best left forgotten.

 

 

What, no Monkees?!?!?  How many here watched their TeeVee show?  Man up and admit it!

 

 

Simon & Garfunkel with Mrs. Robinson from their '68 Bookends LP.

 

 

Bob Dylan with Like A Rolling Stone off of his '65 Highway 61 Revisited LP.

Yep, I watched it in the uk and loved it !!

Rolling Stones with Miss You, an outtake from Some Girls back in '78.

Good on you, Andrew.  At least you admit it.  Not like bannork who only replies with a giggle when asked how many seeds he'd planted.  LOL

Sorry Tippers, I've been very busy with a large expansion of the farm, going fully organic and integrating the chickens, ducks, buffaloes, fish, vegetables, fruit trees and crops to the greatest extent possible. Hopefully it will be all sorted by next June! The seed planting ain't finished.

One topic I'm still mulling over is which music most inspires chickens and ducks to lay eggs, trees to produce fruit and fish to grow fast?

At least I think I've found the answer to the last category.

I was gonna come back with the Wurzels and that Combine Harvester song but that might be deemed a little childish ( even by my infantile mentality ☹️).

So here’s the original and a cute little video to boot !!

I love his early albums. So many gems.

A late night number-

 

A lot of Free/Bad Company fans don't like this song but I dig that bass and drums. Plus the tune, steppin in.

 

One of the wonderful things about growing up in the 60s and early 70s was the exposure to music on both ends of the spectrum. I mean there was the hippy, trippy, we are all together, peace and love music of The Grateful Dead, West Coast bands, plenty of Beatles tracks etc; and then there were the doomsayers, King Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man, depressed folks such as Neil Young, and of course The Doors where the end of the world was always near.

What I mean is The Doors provided a kind of psychological insurance. If you were seriously influenced by The Doors, you are never surprised that the end is always near, whether that means the end of life or the end of life in Thailand due to the collapse of the pound due to a stupid government.

Growing up and being influenced by such music is a cushion as to what life can throw at one.

 

What a great title!
