You are welcome, that was a great show, and the sound isn't too horrible.  It never fails to amaze me what shows up on u tube.

I stumbled upon this forgotten tune today, while looking for a different Lovin' Spoonful tune. There was some really good music in the '60s!

The Joe Cocker version:

This is the tune I was looking for, after hearing a slow version on a lame Kevin Costner movie. I knew I had heard it before, but couldn't quite remember where or when...

I had another musical deja vu experience yesterday. While munching on KFC chicken and mashed potatoes and gravy, I heard this tune, and I knew I knew it from somewhere, some-when, but couldn't place it. Earlier today, while coming home from the post office, it popped back into my head, and I almost remembered the lyrics, but got distracted. This evening it popped back into my head again, and I remembered enough of the lyrics to do a search.
The original version was by The Foundation in 1967. I think I like Alison's version better. :)

The Lovin' Spoonful was a good time unpretentious band, with tight songwriting and great melodies.  A fine band to listen to.

I love Sneaky Pete's pedal steel on this. Post Gram Parsons, so it's a bit more upbeat and rockin, but still got the FBB vibe.  Chris Hillman should be better appreciated but oh well, just listen and enjoy.

RIP JD Souther  co-writer of Victim of Love....


Interesting history on this song. Don Felder sang the lead on the first take then was taken out to dinner while the band re-recorded it with Henley singing.  Beginning of the end for Felder....

Saw him join the Eagles at the Forum a few months ago. Seems like he was "the most interesting man in the world". Dated Joni Mitchell, Linda Rondstadt, Stevie Nicks, etc.

Sounds like he was a stud, but it was the '70's...ha!   Bet that was a great show.  The Eagles are currently doing a residency in Vegas at the Sphere.

PS. If you havent been to the Sphere, you need to go, simply amazing experience  [We saw U2 there]
