The Flying Burrito Brothers - Sin City
The Flirtations - Nothing But a Heartache
Eddie Floyd - Big Bird
Gloria Jones - Heartbeat
Bunker Hill - Hide & Go Seek
Letta Mbulu - What's Wrong with Groovin'
The Left Banke - Pretty Ballerina
Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman
The Creation - Making Time

First time hearing that Dean Carter song. What a ride! The lead guitar is wild.

The Temptations - My Girl
Ennio Morricone - L'estasi dell'oro
Otis Redding - The Dock of the Bay
Delroy Wilson - Rain From the Skies
The Zombies - Time of the Season
Etta James - I'd Rather Go Blind

Love - Maybe the People Would Be the Times or Between Clark and Hilldale
Jefferson Airplane - Today
Tim Buckley - No Man Can Find the War, or Once I Was
Fairport Convention - Tam Lin

Sam Cooke - Cupid, or Chain Gang
Lee Moses - Bad Girl
Rita and the Tiaras - Gone With the Wind Is My Love
Nina Simone - Ain't go no, I've got life
Etta James - I'd rather go blind

So many great selections already. Gonna find it hard to do this one. I love that Francoise Hardy song Nabozo

That was such an incredible decade for pop in French.
I also briefly considered "La maison où j'ai grandi" which is heart-clenching and that I somehow associate with the death of my grandmother.
For Jacqueline Taieb, I absolutely love "Ce soir je m'en vais" which is about taking the boat back to France after a language exchange or something.
"N'écoute pas les idoles" by France Gall, another example, first French song my wife loved.

Love your selection Nabozo
