It's awful because it's at THE WRONG SPEED. The other posting elsewhere is at the right speed.

@Vidiot2005 No I think the speed is right, but the missing portion is inexcusable. Sounds rather like the tonearm skipped and the recordist was asleep at the switch. I believe the lyrics come almost verbatim from a Lennon interview in Rolling Stone around that time.

When I first heard this in '72 and it got to out of the middle 8 and back into the "Me auntie" verse, it was just so over the top I completely lost it. Never laughed so hard in my life.

They allow the F word but not "Mick Jagger with his stupid faggot dancing." PC I guess.

But this is brilliant, as is the rest of the album which a couple of friends at college and I

played a a lot around 1972. Most of the cuts are available here and almost all are great.

I find it interesting that this piece was edited at :46 , or perhaps it was just an odd "skip" in the record.

Reminds me of head wiping back my hair while rolling a joint in the parking lot of King-Kwick in my 1969 Nova fast-back while my girlfriend is in the store buying us cigarettes because I'm too fuckin paranoid.

peejay1954 here, I too had this on a cassette, played over and over in my Pinto with my Buddies Lonergan & Gentile, while getting ripped on Santa Marta Gold, Summer of 76 was awesome ! Ever heara "Childs Garden of Grass"?
