Good luck finding a copy of this! I thought it was a hoot when it was first released and naturally it being the fact that he was a Beatle, it gained alot of notoriety. Actually he's denouncing doing all the drugs and alcohol in the song but the right wingers didn't look at it like that, dummies. This is great!
It's curious - I just did a quick check and Swingtown was a hit single in 1977, but the No, No Song was out in 1975. The Wiki information on Miller indicated that he had a pretty wide number of contacts, including Les Paul - maybe he and Hoyt Axton knew each other and shared this rif?
Hey you know what? there's a store where I live called "Audio Warehouse", and about 15 or 20 years ago, they did a short cover of this song for their radio commercial [that they STILL air annually], for something called a "no sale", something to do with not paying 'till summer lol
"This lady that I know wanted a car stereo, a TV, fax machine and VCR
she said wait, because the price was too great, then she went to Audio Warehouse.
And they said no no no no, don't wait anymore, no GST and no money down, no payments 'till june and no hassles too, it's the sale that you've been waiting for"
love the kiddie record player. Never seen one with the tone arm the other side.

What model record player is that? Since it's orange I'm guessing it's from the 70's.
