Ah those sweet innocent days when we believed that everything would be wonderful if we could get the straights to smoke a bit of dope. Now living in a country where half the government has partaken, we find it really wasn't the key to the kingdom after all. Great song though.

So lucky as a NZ colonial 2 hv seen Kev 1970 with Whole World band @ Roundhouse in Kent,great compo from trauma of cancelled Frank Zappa concert @ Royal Albert,London abt same time Nov 1970, all cos of ditty of day called Penis Dimensions. I know it was on that date, because the Frank Zappa ticket (cancelled to the Royal Albert Hall) was my 17th birthday present from Dad. But, as I say, Kevin was a perfectly good consolation,
I say to Kevin, for my consolation prize, Thank You, Very Much
A cautionary tale for all those in authority who think they know best. Am surprised this has not been banned yet under an EEC directive. Still very funny. Thanks for posting.
Fun Fact: This song wasn't about tobacco, he is talking about the dreaded maryjane, doobies, acapulco gold, tea, wawa, smokey pokie, the pause, brite green flying carpet, the hidden door, gong, boowie....

Any footage of Halsall playing on the Ayers song "Blue"? The studio version has one of the best guitar solos ever.
