I Want You Still- Dave Clark 5
(Is there any one DC5 album that is consistent? I guess if I had to pick one, it would be "American Tour." This is from that.)
Shindig City- Dorothy Parker (Dorothy Berry?)
(I couldn't find any info on this Dorothy Parker. But an anonymous philanthropist sent me a message that mentions Dorothy Berry's single "Standing On The Corner," which I've featured here before. This makes sense and more likely that the info on my MP3 is incorrect. In other news, Berry has one single and man, do both sides kick ass!)
Where Is The Moon- Southern Culture On The Skids
(SCOTS recorded this gem twice, once in 2004 and again in 2021. This is the latter.)
Talkin' To Myself- Art
(When Gary Wright joined Art, they became Spooky Tooth. Art's only release is a pretty great piece of psychedelia. From 1967, here's one of my faves.)
Hot Rails To Hell- Blue Oyster Cult
(I've said it before and I'll continue to say it, there is no band like Blue Oyster Cult. Pigeonholed as heavy metal, these guys can play anything. And whatever they play is always uniquely BOC...like this classic from "Tyranny & Mutation.")
Into The Light- Siouxsie & The Banshees
(Had a few visits with Siouxsie this week. "Juju" is a favorite, as is this single from that album.)
Elevator- Grapefruit
(Maybe you know "Dear Delilah." Maybe you don't know "Elevator." It's good, too!)

When I was 14, I bought Tyranny & Mutation because of a Rolling Stone review that compared the album to Led Zeppelin - that's all it took for me. It's still on steady rotation after all these years. I have to admit, it's the only BOC I've ever really listened to.
That Dorothy Parker track sure has some sizzle to it!
Agree with you about the newer version of the SCOTS track. Y'know, I've got digital files of nearly their entire catalog and have really never explored them as much as I need to. I have to remedy that!
Grapefruit? Geez, where do you come up with these great old tracks?
Thanks for the mix!
Randy
Thanks for this Sal!
