Boat On The River by Styx off of their '79 Cornerstone LP.

I never cared for Styx's music.  But this song I like.  A far southside Chicago product, prior to their super success as Styx they used to be called TW4.  I remember they'd do gigs at local high school sock hops.

The Four Pennies recorded the song under the name Black Girl in October '64.
 

 

One of my first 45's. Still have it at "home" (where I haven't been in ~20 years.)

Early British rock 'n roll.  Wonderful, init?

The B-side, You Went Away, should bring back some memories, too, then.

More mandolin

 

 

Those are a couple of very excellent ones, bannork.

And another by Rod the Mod.  Maggie May off of his '71 Every Picture Tells A Story LP.  Ray Jackson of Lindisfarne plays mandolin both on this tune and Stewart's Madolin Wind.

Al Stewart with Road To Moscow off of his '73 Past, Present And Future LP.

"Roads To Moscow" is one of Stewart's epic songs, he is reputed to have read forty books researching it.  Stewart's management tells us, "the narrator is a Russian soldier who fought for Russia, but was captured briefly by the Germans."
