It's said, there is no accounting for taste.

Villanova, April '71, and again at Concord Pavillion, June '84. John Kay et al rock!!!

This is an example of depravity; bastardizing the genius of two artists to morph into a clone.

First heard this twenty years ago..knocked my socks off!!! Up there with the Kinks and Father Christmas. As a sixty something, I relish treating my younger knothead guests at this time of year to real rock and roll; irreverent and polished musicianship. Merry Christmas to all; please remember, ...

One of the best little songs ever written, thank you Ray111

Rythm section par excell-ance!!!

The late Allison Steele, of WNEW-FM New York, used this piece as the center of three then really spacey tunes, starting with Lothar and the Hand People (Space Hymn), Deodato (Alzo Sprach Zarathustra), and David Bowie (Space Oddity) on her Friday night midnight-hour program in 1973. Fire one up, ...

Saw Charles Lloyd in concert as a guest on stage with The Doors in

Central Park, Wolman Rink, Schaeffer Summer Of Stars, Aug. '72.

Next day, bought his album Waves, and it's still

here

It is good to be first. Manzarek-o-philes have full appreciation of this work for what he leading up to in his career. Plus, I firmly believe this to be the first recorded performance of Patti Smith, in her brief spoken-word segment as the "Poetess". Full raves!!!

Just a terrific love song as sounded by great musicianship. Raves!!!

The Doors in Central Park, August '72, featuring Charles Lloyd along with Flo and Eddie, closed the foot-stomping show with this tune...magnificent!!!

Clearly remember the night in Central Park, NYC, at the Wollman Rink, August '72, "The Schaeffer(beer)Circle of Stars Presentation" of The Doors, with Flo and Eddie, and guest musician Charles Lloyd. Magnificent!!!

For a period of time from '72-'73 WNEW's (FM New York) the late Allison Steele would open up her midnight hour show with the triple dose of "spaced out melodies" beginning with Lothar and the Hand People, followed by Deodato and finished by Bowie. After twenty-five minutes of well played mood mus...

Steve and I were reading the Sunday papers at his place drinking Heineken and smoking the herb when Susie Burke let herself in through the back door while we had Dr. Demento on the radio listening to Hamster Love...after three minutes of non-conversation, she stood up off the couch excusing herse...

..believe the flip side was titled "Tontos' Revenge"

Many years ago Richard Neer of WNEW FM fame proudlly announced on air that Michael Urbaniak and Ursula Dudziak would be performing at the Bottom Line.

It was a big deal then , and still should be now

What a wonderful piece of music; nobody knows that this was the flip side to Keem O Sabe by the Electric Indian ,autumn 1969.

was blowin' this through my amps thirty-five years ago and it still sounds fresh

This was my love song to Yvonne Smith in 1964.

The jazz-rythym-reggae of these musicians is a natural progression from the hectic sixties rock fueled fire of their former front man.

Thanks for the post...any Manzarek-ophile is fully appreciative of this bands ill-fated efforts.

Always figgered' Jerry Jeff Walker did a better job covering this tune than Arlo did the original..all due respect to the writer.

Southern rock is its own genre what with Allmans, Tucker, Skynyrd and even Atlanta Rythm Section..the musicianship is pure Muscle Shoals and should not in all fairness even be compared to the likes of Beck, Clapton and Page.
