I like this song that I only knew by the title..It's curious to see Sam,Dave and Peter today with little hair,but that's life!! Fantastic group

Being with BB meant learning the ropes. i notice she took a few little style elements from this experience. I don't think they sound very good together, these lyrics are lame, and she's obviously bound for bigger and better things as a solo artist. Sad that she'll only live another two years. very short but packed little career. If only the heroin wasn't so high-grade in those days!

The lyrics are just kinda dated and trippy, but everything else about it is timeless (or just good) -- the duet bits, the tune itself. I like it.

It was time when people made music for fun and joy, now there's some avarage painfully talentless weirdos like gaga doing it for money and "tabloid fame".

I dont know why people don't like BB I think they both complimented each other.

I remember the day that album was pressed and Janis got some copies. She came walkin into the front room at the doghouse on bourbon st. with gurley in tow carrying a box of promo copies and handing them out to everyone she saw. i was sittin on the floor rollin joynts and she handed me one then saw what i was doin and handed me another one and said you gotta have something to roll on, she was 10 foot tall and beaming like a locomotive headlight that day. Gawd that was a long time ago.
