^ You're welcome, DMBFFF. Congrats on your 100 posts and thanks for the callout to Hugh Masekela, who surely deserves more attention on MB. To that end, here's a thread I opened about him a while back:- https://www.musicbanter.com/jazz-blu...-masekela.html

And on the topic of refs in songs, there really are so many! Here are a few more I thought of, all stemming from the US folk revival of the '60s/'70s:-

Bob Dylan: Song For Woody
Crosby Stills and Nash: Suite Judy Blue Eyes
Mamas And Papas: Creeque Alley
Joan Baez: Diamonds And Rust
