BringMetheHeadofLeonLett Posted June 24, 2021 Posted June 24, 2021 A little Dramarama appreciation trip here- pretty good band, caught in the middle of the LA post-paisley thing, but too 'alt' for the Sunset Strip scene. Working backwards... sorta, the last song was their first airplay (see Rodney Bingenheimer), the first song was off a mix tape from a girl named Brandy, and the middle one may be... just right 1 Quote
BringMetheHeadofLeonLett Posted June 24, 2021 Posted June 24, 2021 Wow! I swear I didn't look at this thread - for weeks - before posting- I was on a road trip. Must be ol' mix tape season or something. Bravo to 70's, Pete & DrW! oh, and if your tastes range there, maybe don't disregard the song I said to disregard... there's an odd beauty to that one for a sweaty front-porch evening listen. Quote
BringMetheHeadofLeonLett Posted July 2, 2021 Posted July 2, 2021 I still have no idea what this song was all about- was it a Chubby Checker dance craze hopeful that involved rubber-bands... I may never know, but Live, it's a blast, and I love all of the backup singers: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jte7Jhii4e0 1 1 Quote

At some point I owned all this... I'll keep posting when I think of something worthy of it from that era.... Thanks for the thumbs-up! I remember Gazebo from listening to CFNY. They played some great music, which you could not hear on any other station. Quote

DrW Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) IMHO, JA's Volunteers is underrated. My personal favorite... The song was not very typical for the Stones, but I liked it despite the pretty inane lyrics. What do these two songs have in common? Of course, it is Nicky Hopkins on piano. For an encore, here is the intro of Lennon's "Jealous Guy". Hopkins died much too early from Krohn's disease in 1994 at the age of 50. Edited July 7, 2021 by DrW 1 Quote
SinceThe70s Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 A page or so ago I mentioned looking for songs I'd forgotten about that I like. Came across this one since. 2 Quote
