This morning:
Bobby Rydell - "Sway"
Summer is always the time when I get back to my hippie roots; I've always been head-over-heels for proper psych, so here's a few tracks I've always turned on, tuned in, and... grooved to.
Strawberry Alarm Clock - "Incense and Peppermints"
Vanilla Fudge - "You Keep Me Hangin' On"
The Association - "Along Comes Mary"
Tommy James & The Shondells - "Crimson and Clover"
The Electric Prunes - "Wind Up Toys"
Donovan - "Hurdy Gurdy Man"
There's thousands more I know I'm forgetting (but they will eventually resurface) but I must also mention that summer is also a great time for motown.
Marvin Gaye - "I Heard it Through the Grapevine"
Otis Redding - "Sittin' On the Dock of the Bay"
Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - "You Really Got a Hold On Me"
And I'll just throw in this super bonus for anyone ready to trip out today. It's 80 degrees and sunny in Seattle; this definitely calls for a major psych overdose.
