Psychedelic Mango Rock
- A favorite group, perhaps the favorite, for decades -- both my wife and me.
Their best album, best songs. All on the Tube. "It's a Beautiful Day".
"Girl With No Eyes"
About halfway through is the line, "She's just a reflection of all of the time I've been high".

They really are.
We went to see Osborne in a little music club (they discourage talking during shows!) and sat at the front table right by her. At the start of the show she said that she hoped we wouldn't mind she was doing all Dylan songs for a new series of shows she was starting. I was delighted. You should hear her sing, Man in the Long Black Coat and Boots of Spanish Leather. She's amazing. I saw her with the remaining Grateful Dead members a couple of times and she was great then, too. When she had that one hit she really tore up a huge outdoor crowd during the Atlanta Olympics, too. I can't believe she isn't the biggest star out there.

Did the video for this a few days ago but just got around to the vocals and processing. Enjoy!

Jim managed to get us out of hiding and record a song for his Season. This one's for you, Jim!
Of Montreal, and especially this song, have been favourites for years, but until now we've never tried to make it our own. Love is the drug!

Just Dropped In (to see what condition my condition was in)
I like the song-writer's version better than the better-known pop version by Kenny Rogers, or even Jerry Lee Lewis's (who recorded it in 1967, before the First Edition did.)

Here's my third and final. I was going to do Cocaine Makes Me Regular by The Asskickers but this Springsteen tune fit my mood. I also tried to get through Legend Of A Mind for you Jim but that just wasn't working out. Anyone?

I guess taste is lost on some people. I thought it was fantastic. Loved the classic country feel of it.

Now would be a good time for someone to do "Pink Turns to Blue" by Husker Du. The guy who wrote it, Grant Hart, died today. Husker Du broke up mostly because of his heroin addiction. He did manage to kick it eventually though, and had a good career both solo and with a couple of other bands. His death was caused by liver cancer.
OP

The Posies wrote a song called "Grant Hart" about how Husker Du's music affected them.
Here's another drug song video. This is the band K's Choice.

I seem to be on some kind of 90's kick. This was the first song that came into my mind when I read the theme. I loved this song as a kid. Needless to say, I had no idea what it was about or what the words meant. I hope you guys enjoy it.
