The only one I've ever learned was "Jeepster," but that's a fun song. I think the riff is a Willie Dixon rip-off, but there's nothing wrong with that.
I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Man, if we couldn't rip off Willie Dixon there'd hardly be any hard rock in the late sixties or early seventies.

Ain't that the truth!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Does anyone have a copy of Big Stick’s “Crack Attack” that they could throw up on b-rawk?

Compassionately intolerant
Here are Bowie and Bolan on "Marc".
Man! I just stumbled in here to squee about something in particular, but then got caught up in all the fascinating stuff you are talking about.
First, what I am so psyched about is the new Crash Test Dummies album featuring toy instruments...notably the Omnichord. I had one of them in the 80s!
Ergh. Board ate my badly formatted post that featured stuff about Poi Dog Pondering opening for Michelle Shocked (featuring Frank Orrall's death defying lighted globe swing over the audience and dancing with Michelle's manager), Rap Repleinger's Fate Yanagi, that awesome Florence and the Machines cut mentioned above and the fact that I used to perform Julie Brown's 'Cause I'm a blond all over SoCal. Too lazy to recreate it, with all the links.
It ended with, I came in for a moment and stayed for hours. I should visit here more often.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
If you were putting together a 70s play list, what would be on it?

Because books.
Andy Gibb, the BeeGees, Shawn Cassidy, the Carpenters, lots and lots of one-hit wonders. Ooh, and Donna Summer!
