  3. And is this were things changes--Strawberry Alarm Clock

    Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind
    Dead kings, many things I can't define
    Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind
    Incense and peppermints, the color of time

    Who cares what games we choose?
    Little to win but nothin' to lose

    Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns
    Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around

    Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah
    Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah, yeah!

    To divide this cockeyed world in two
    Throw your pride to one side, it's the least you can do
    Beatniks and politics, nothing is new
    A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view

    Who cares what games we choose?
    Little to win but nothin' to lose

  4. Loved the British Invasion! Yeah Donovan!

    I'm just mad about Saffron
    Saffron's mad about me
    I'm just mad about Saffron
    She's just mad about me

    They call me mellow yellow
    (Quite rightly)
    They call me mellow yellow
    (Quite rightly)
    They call me mellow yellow

  6. This started me on a Donovan thread tonight and I have been listening to song after song--been a long time! Season of the Witch and Mellow Yellow, and Wear Your Love Like Heaven, oh this is fun to remember. My mother was a beatnik of major proportion!

  7. Boy, talk about bringing back memories---I remember it all very well--and the songs...just fantastic--and The Twist, The Stroll(or was stroll 50's??), American Bandstand, Milt Grant Show (for any D.C.-ites), payola--oops, that was a bad thing then--it really was the beginning of the end of innocence.

  10. Tee hee at the flower children -- didn't any of you listen to Bob Dylan or -- gasp -- the Beatles? Beth, I think Young Girl was Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. I do still love the Night They Drove Old Dixie Down but I was only a babe in arms in the 60s -- well, that's my story anyway...

  11. ... oh yeah, the Beatles and Bob Dylan were very much a part of my "album" collection.....still have an "orange crate" full of old albums.....

  12. lol, I remember when Lost in Space went to color from B/W, and watching Have Gun will Travel, and so many more shows. Never did like the Beatles and yes, still don't. Dad had the idea that the only music worth listening to was country, and that was all that was allowed in the house. I also remember when the death count from the VN war was flashed across the tv during the news :(

  16. JCat I am a Beatles fanatic. I was raised on them. My Dad has every one of their albums, even the few that were only released in the UK. I have posters of them as well. One with their signatures--very old. Hard to believe 2 are dead. George Harrison was my favorite--seemed to be the quiet one of the bunch. And lets not forget that he played a sitar!

  17. I was only 9 yrs.old at the time,but,was glued to American Bandstand!! I should've been born 10 yrs. before I was!. It's Ironic that I would end up owning a '63 Chevy for 38 yrs. of my life!
