    Close, but Blondie never did a song by that name
    

Blondie did "Call Me" - might that be the answer?

    Yeah, it was "Call Me". Anyone remember "American Gigolo"?
    
    I think Marv knew the song, since it starts with "cover me with
    kisses...", So whichever of you two comes up with a new one first gets
    it.
    
    Blondie was my favorite group (well, second to the Beatles) all those

Take it Away Shawn!!

Ian Anderson writes, IMO, some fantastic lyrics.  Tull's older stuff is really
excellent, especially Aqualung, To Old to Rock, Too Young to Die, and my
all-time favorite, THICK AS A BRICK...

He sure does. One thing I always wondered thou, on TAAB he credits the lyrics
to a Gerald Bostwick (sp?) could it be a real person IMO I doubt it, but you

     Not really a drinking song, either.  I admit it does have a certain
     relevance to a journey I'm going to undertake in about 10 days :^)


  



 Jim    

    a question jim, is it a FEAT song?
                                      rfb

Nope.  I'm not 100% certain, but I believe it was originally done by Bob Wills
and his Texas Playboys.  Another band also did it, ini the last 10-15 years
ago or so..





Jim

	The Yellow Rose of Texas?

Mark

Nope.  But Texas is in the title :^)





Jim

Well, maybe I picked a tough one...the song I was referring to was
a tune that was done by Asleep at the Wheel called "Don't ask me why I'm
Going to Texas"...was never done by Bob Wills as it turns out..Ray Benson
of Asleep at the Wheel wrote it..

"I do love to hear those Texas fiddles
and dance and sing and drink my Lone Star Beer"

Hint> It's off of his 1st solo effort, around '69 I believe.

  I probably should answer this since I think I blew it anyway as far as 
calling it his 1st solo album. It's 'RUNNING DRY (Requiem for the Rockets)'
by Neil Young off of EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS IS NOWHERE. You know, the album
with such obscure hits as 'Cinnamon Girl', 'Down By The River', 'Cowgirl In
The Sand', ...ect. The song has a great gypsy sounding violin accompaniment.
   So was there an earlier NY solo effort? One that contained the song 'The
Loner'. I was informed there was, but I have never seen it.

           Chris

                                

    Neil Young's first album was called "Neil Young". It contains "The
    Loner", and I think "Sugar Mountain" too. It's still in print, on cd
    now. The cover is a Joni Mitchell-style psychedelic painting of Neil.

I know it isn't my turn but I just listened to this song on the way in
and I like the following lines so much I had to put them somewhere in 
this file so I figured I do it here and have some fun.....

	"... let us strive to find a way to make our hatred cease.

    However, many members of Fraternity of Man ended up as founding members
    of Little Feat (which explains their cover of the tune shamelessly
    omitted from the cd of Waiting for Columbus and added as "bonus tracks"
    on The Last Record Album) but now if you want the real version you can
    get the Easy Rider soundtrack on a cheap CD if you go to England, where

	No problem da ve, enjoy the weekend.  Okay, this one should be easy:

"The new crowd says I remind them of Frank,
who died of excessive neglect, in Barcelona."

Mark

	Oh, come on!  This is by a band that's been discussed in this file.
They've opened for the boys within the past year or so.  Okay, the song also
contains the exchage:

"Would you like another piece of cake?
No, thank you, my ears are too sweet now."

"Gretta leads us, through the stone, carved archway..."

    Mombo by Feat

    " SO you think we should just sit here,

The Band is definitely Led Zepplin, the song is, I think, "Riverside Blues"


Geoff    
        

    
    The Song is definitely by Led Zeppelin, but the song is definitely

    The Doors - Shaman's Blues
    

    
        That's it Scott! Take it away....

    This is actually the second verse (there's a couple of words I haven't
    figured out in the first):
    
    Sitting in a chair of bamboo, sipping grenadine
    Straining my eyes for a surfacing submarine
    

    I guess that song was more obscure than I thought.  It was "Sand and
    Foam" by Donovan, from the Mellow Yellow album.  Really cool tune.
    
    Here's something a little easier (and appropriate for the upcoming
    weekend):
    
    Many's the time I've been mistaken
    And many times confused
    Yes, and often felt forsaken
    And certainly misused

    Oops, am I digressing in the wrong note again?
    Ok, I'll make a guess, since I can hear the song in my head.
    
    "It Just Can't Be", off Cheap Thrills, by Big Brother & the Holding Co.
    
    John_who_actually_has_an_electric_prunes_album_but_hasn't_actually_

You mean you weren't kidding about a band named the electric prunes????

    You mean you've never heard of the Electric Prunes?  Creator of that
    classic "I had too Much to Dream Last Night"?
    
    Ah, how soon we forget...  Maybe Blue Cheer?  Strawberry Alarm Clock?
    1910 Fruitgum Company?  Grootna?
    

    OK, I'll name the song - I Need A Man To Love - BB&tHC
    
    The Electric Prunes were way cool - my favorite album is "Mass In F
    Minor".  If yer familiar with Easy Rider they used part of Kyrie
    Eleison (the whole album's in Latin) in the acid/cemetary scene in New
    orleans.  1910 Fruitgum Company and Strawberry Alarm Clock were too
    commercial and bubble-gummy.

                                    opps!

    Re: Various
    
    Yup, Incense and Peppermints was Strawbery Alarmclock.  And I've even
    seen it available in CD.
    
    My memory is hazy on this one, but I think 1910 Fruitgum did "Yummy,
    yummy, yummy I've got love in my tummy"
    
    Grootna, on the other hand, is worth giving a listen to if you come
    across it.  When we found this one in college, we originally thought it
    was a stealth type album.  It was produced (well, seduced, actually)
    by Marty Balin, and the vocals sounded somewhat like Janis Joplin.
    But we later found out (this was in '78 or so) that they really were a
    band in their own right.

 And the 13th Floor Elevators

    Anyone have the first Ultimate Spinach album?  It's nearly identical to
    the first Country Joe & the Fish album in the order and style of the
    songs.
    
    
    Here's a real nugget:
    
    I remember the days when things were real bad for me
    It was right after my accident, when I lost my hand
    It seemed like I was all alone, with nobody to help me
    You know, I almost gave up all my hopes and dreams
    But then, something inside of me kept on telling me,
    way down inside of me, over and over again, to keep going on
    Yeah, on
    

I don't know the name of the tune but it was done by the ultimate prunes
wasn't it?  :-)

Tim Buckley!
The Fugs!
MC5! (should've been DC5 ;^)

It was all before my time, and I love it all and listen to it as much as

    What, no guesses?  Hint:  it's a mid-60's Boston area band, did one
    album (for Laurie records), were known for what was considered really
    long hair at the time.  Oh yeah, and the drummer had a claw.

    Scott,
    
    Are you thinking of the Barbarians' "Are You a Boy or a Girl?"

    Right band, wrong song.
    

    Well, it's been too long - the tune was "Moulty" by the Barbarians.  He
    was the drummer, and had a claw in place of a hand.  I used to work
    with a guy who lived near Moulty and every so often he'd see him
    walking to practice with his sticks in his claw.
    
    Gosh - it was even a hit single.  Made the top 40 and everything.
    
    Since Mike was the closest he has the pleasure of comping up with the
    next one.

    Ken, you got it. :)  I think the only Hendrix song that I like better
    than this one is "Castles Made of Sand".  They're both VERY close on my
    list of all time faves.
    
    I THINK the next line goes something like:
    "Queen jealousy, envy, waits behind him
     Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground..."

    "Million Dollar Bash" by Bob Dylan. I suggest that the previous guess

    <whatever this game is about>.

	Well that's up to Jamie, isn't he on vacation ?

	Listening to the rest of TBT was another set of lyrics that would
	have been good, on Clothes Line Saga:

	Did you hear the news he said with a grin, 
	the vice president's gone mad.
	Where ?  Downtown (?)	
	When ?  Last night.
	Hmmm, that's too bad.

	I was thinking of the version on Four Way Street where
	Neil introduces it by saying something along the lines of
	"well, here's another one of my depressing songs...
	it kind of starts off real slow and then fizzles out all together"

	alright, anyways, here's the next one

	Don't worry about me
	I'm alright
	Long as I'm having
	a natural good time

    HA!  i was thinking of that version too...

I love old Neil boots. I remember him doing Sugar mountain, and just before the 
following verse, he goes on and on about how this is absolutely the worst 
verse he ever wrote and how he hates singing it...

	I'm not sure what the actual verse is actually,  but this his actually 
how I actually rememebr it..  :-)

	Now your underneath the stairs
	and all your friends are there
	Aint it funny how it gets

    "I have to think to smile"

sorry for stepping in on anyone's turn but this has been quiet too long and
besides I have an *easy* one inspired by a song I heard for the first time in
a looong time.  Hope I get this right....

	"... he had a pick-up truck and the devils eyes ..."

btw; because we spoke about this yesterday dc, you are not allowed to guess!

    Hmmmm.  My mind is known for making strange connections...
    In trying to remember the lyrics to the song, I can't think of where it
    would fit in, but something inside me wants to say that line is from
    "The Time Warp", from RHPS
    
    Boy, am I gonna feel stupid if that's not it...

no new brain needed yet ... you got it!  Take it away.....

    Well, as long as we're doing off the wall songs, how about one which
    even has a vague dead connection.
    
    "Then I saw my co-star.  Oh, god, more beautiful then Cher"
    
    Good luck!

Right group, wrong song ... :^)

haha then ...

"Go to the Mirror Boy"

				by the Who

    I think you mean "Smash the Mirror".

If you are talking to me I don't mean Smash the Mirror.  That is what Jamie said
and was told he was wrong.  I am relatively sure there is a song of the name
"Go to the Mirror Boy" which is different than "Smash the Mirror" on the same
album and what I am more sure of is that the line is from that album.

/confused

It's "Go to the Mirror Boy" ... "Smash the Mirror" is a different song.

    Just since no one got the tune, it's "Matty Groves", by Fairport
    Convention.  I know lots of you lost sleep thinking about it.
    
    Scott, getting near the last note
    

OK, since it has been the only bite I will admit that yes, you are on
the right track Sparky.  :-)

 Dang..and I thought it was the Ray Connif singers :-/



 Jum

    It might be "Come on to the Christmas Party" by the snowballs, but I
    can't place the lyric in there. As soon as I read hulahoop I could hear
    chipmonks.

Well Jay, you certainly know the song and I think I am going to give it

    For those of you too young to remember The Chipmunk song was featured
    often on American Bandstand.  Back when "Bandstand" was out of Philly
    and every self respecting teen-ager hurried home from school to tune
    into it.  I personnal thought that the Chipmunks, especially Alvin had
    it all over Fabian.

The Moody Blues - Timothy Leary's Dead

Geoff

	Yep, the band is right, that was the easy part ;-)
	
	You got the right song, but the title is not correct.
	
	:-)

    The song title is "Ledgend of a mind".

     	Now I've got to come up with something huh? 

     Hmmmm, how about


     	"No this time it was me,

One of my favorite Christmas songs :-)

Geoff

>     	"No this time it was me,

The Christmas (W)rap by the Waitresses.

Or the title could be Cristmas (W)rapping.

Dave

    Yup, it's "Christmas (W)rapping".
    
    	It took me about three years to get that title and you got it in

    Ok, the tune (hmmm, not even any guess's) was titled
       "Power Failure"
    and was covered by Leo Kottke on "Mudlark", I believe.  Originally
    I had thought it was something like a Kinks tune that Leo had
    done, but I was confusing it with Feats tune that Weir does on 
    "Heaven Help the Fool".  Pretty confused, huh?  Note that "Power
    Failure" was written by someone else, or two someones, rather, but
    I don't know if it has appered anywhere else.  Don't remember the 
    names offhand, but one of them might have been Booker something
    (made me think of Booker T and the ...., but I don't know for sure that
    it was the same Booker).  Of course "Power Failure' was on my mind 
    after the last storm (the rain is finally getting to the last of the
    snow now, sigh).  OK, how about an easy one??

That's an old Native American peyote-ritual tune, with an Indian
name, like "Wichee Ti Ti" or something...it was recorded way back
in the 60's sometime - don't recall who did it...someone like the
Everly Brothers...

    Water Spirit Song, Whicee Ti To.  I think a few people may have done
    things with it, though Brewer&Shipley's version is probably most
    familiar to people.
    
    PeterT
    

    I'll have to give it to Tim since he answered first and I'm not
    one to nitpick on Navajo phonetics. :-). The version I was thinking 
    of was from Redbone - "Whichitito". I didn't know that many people
    covered it. I'd be real interested in hearing that Everley Brother's 
    rendition, though. :-)

And if I might joke a bit with you two (gerg and tim) myself I'd
have to point out that Brewer And Shipley covering that tune would
sound as funny as the Everly Brothers.

From the Subdivisions? album... (the same one with The Weapon, Digital

album?

Dave (big fan of Rush's stuff from Moving Pictures on backwards..., but
not too familiar with the more recent stuff)

p.s. BTW, Jeff, the song is Analog Kid, not Digital Man (or is that another
song entirely?)

I finally got one of these!

The name of the song is "Losing It", and it is on the Signals album.  It is
about a dancer who grows old and wishes she were young.  The song is based on a
character in a Hemingway novel.  Dave, you and Jeff are both correct about
Analog Kid and Digital Man.  Both are on the "Signals" album (and are related,
obviously).  BTW, Rush played Analog Kid at Great Woods last year.  I was blown
away.  What a guitar solo.  What a show!

Jeff, I was impressed that you figured it out (mostly).  That *is* an obscure
tune.

adam_a_BIG_Rush_fan

> p.s. BTW, Jeff, the song is Analog Kid, not Digital Man (or is that
> another song entirely?)

Analog Kid is the second song on the (Subdivisions?) album.  Digital Man is
later on the same album I think.

BTW, the first two lines of the song in question are:

    "The dancer slows her frantic pace,
    In pain and desperation..."
    
I'll check my CDs at home tonight for the exact name, and to see if I have
my albums confused -- but I still stand by my guess.  ;-)

one of the 'obscure' type, especially for deadheads!), but I decided to go for
it.  If no one gets it in a week I'll put something else in.  There's a beer in
it for anyone who gets it!

Oh God of earth and altar,
bow down and hear our cries.
Our earthly rulers falter,
our people drift and die.
The walls of gold entomb us,
the swords of scorn divide.
Take not thy thunder from us,
take away our pride.

The group that does this did not write it.  It was adapted from something
previously written.

Excellent lyrics, I must say.  Very appropriate in this day and age (it was put
to song 10 years ago).

good luck!

volcano eruption.

I'm impressed!  A closet metal head!  Well, you definitely deserve a beer next
time I see you at the white horse!  be sure to flag me down, as I'll invariably
not recognize you!

BTW, the song was written in the mid 1800's by a clergyman.  Not sure of his
name or religion.  The credits are given in the liner notes of "Live After
Death".  The song is on "Piece of Mind" (don't all run out and get it at once!)

wow, nary a guess. The tune is "It's a shame about Ray", from the album of 
the same name by thr Lemonheads. I highly recommend the album (I think it 
also won the album of the year at the Boston Music awards).

Uhmmm, well I know it's Slow Hand (mr. SLOHAN::FIELDS ;-), though I 
thought Hendrix first.  Damn.  I can hear it and the jam that follows
in my mind but I can't quite pin down the rest of the song though
the lyrics "you see your girls brown body..." come to mind too.
I'm going to guess White Room, though I bet it's wrong.

I wish you were playing it loud enough for me to hear, That would be just

Not a JGB tune ...

The title of this song is also the name of a TV sci-fi program, now in

    it'll have to wait till after the weekend. 
    
    Now for some thinking (tomorrow I just ski)

	_New Day Yesterday_      ??

The curtain rises on the scene
With someone shouting to be free
The play unfolds before my eyes
There stands the actor who is me

The sleeping hours takes this part
Through traffic, telephones and fear
Put out your problems with the cat
Escape until a bell you hear

Our reasons are the same
But there's no-one we can blame
For there's nowhere we need go
And the only truth we know comes so easily

The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, darling, you're almost part of me
Oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see
Ah, ah, ah

It's such a rainy afternoon
No point in going anywhere
The sounds just drift across my room
I wish this feeling I could share

It's such a rainy afternoon
She sits and gazes from her window
Her mind tries to recall his face
The feeling deep inside her grows

Our reasons are the same
But there's no-one we can blame
For there's nowhere we need go
And the only truth we know comes so easily

The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, darling, you're almost part of me
Oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see
The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see
Oh, darling, you're almost part of me
Ah, ah, ah

	too easy, der you.

    re - last
    
    I can't believe there hasn't been a stab at this one yet!
    
    Do I have to let Adam answer?

	I give up!

    
    Ok, I shall provide a hint. 
    
    My personal name is quite a hint.

Are you referring to "Love rain O'er Me", from Quadrophenia?

    For some reason I'm thinking "Dr. Jimmy" but I ain't sure.
    
    I can hear that line but not the rest of the song! #&%?$*% 

    Or is it "See Me, Feel Me" - now I'll have to go home and search thru
    my Who tunes for this one!

	Another Tricky Day

    
    Ding!
    
    "Another Tricky Day" is the correct answer.  Probably one of my top 10
    favorite tunes of all time...and quite a tricky day it has been.  
    
    Your up Jay!

I used to think this line was "it's all here in the Bible"

We sleep by the ever-bright hole in the door  
eat in the corner 
talk to the floor -- 
cheating the spiders who come to say ``Please'',
(politely).
They bend at the knees.
