As much as I dislike NFS The Run, It did have some good music. I loved hearing MINISTRY during the foot chase scene. It's just too bad the Quick time button crap made it impossible to just enjoy the cutscenes.
Is there something in Hip culture that admits...it is our place to deal with the snakes. Used to be called freedom and responsibility. I don't hardly recognize this place no more.
We used to listen to this while smoking the good stuff from Nam..... I haven't heard this song since the 60s... I'm looking for some music to record on 8 track for the car cruise, my buddys will love this! Thanks..
Thank God for YouTube in keeping classics like this alive!!! You won't hear "hippie shit" like this on the radio today. That's becuz the accountants that "run" the stations have other ideas. 1970 was a magical year!!!
Donovan occasionally did more than hippy shit, venturing into sex in a way that outstripped all of his contemporaries, even the Stones. The guy had the word 'genitals' on this album. 'Cathy Catholica leaves her genitals at the church door.' A detached sexual frankness that is cool as Bataille. He's about the only one to touch on this stuff - with the colossal exception of Momus in the 80s.
@CultureJudge Donovan had an incredible groove going on this tune at the time, also as you say "Clara Clairavoyant" is a cutting-edge sexually-oriented tune.

I first heard this album when I found it in an LP cut-out bin 35+ years ago. I loved it then, and it soon became my fave Donovan album, and I had quite a few. But y'know, it sounds even better to me in 2010!
The whole album deserves to be uploaded to YT. It produced no big hit singles, but there's not a weak song on it. And I love the production. It's nothing fancy, but the mix is a beauty, including John Carr's fine drumming placed way up high and prominent. Sounds great!
Fair to midland did a cover of this song. Or there own version. Love them n saw them live last year

Keep spreading the truth Donovan!!! Amazing!
Every)body who read the Jungle Book knows that Riki tiki tavi's a
mongoose who kills snakes
(Well) when I was a young man I was led to believe there were organisations
to kill my snakes for me
(ie the) church ie the government ie the school
(but when I got a little older) I learned I had to kill them myself
