I can remember carrying a portable radio to my dishwashing job and diggin' it.

Some interesting stuff here.

Oh, classic, definitely. The Edwin Hawkins Singers also did the background vocals on Melanie's "Lay Down," which is a guilty pleasure of mine as well. And a lot of their other stuff is good too.

Classic! Ahhh, I was just catchin' some holy ghost. : D

so classic I almost wanna rent that hippie Big Sur festival DVD to see them perform (I do not, however, need to see any more footage of David Crosby waxing rhapsodic about how he "stopped a war maaaaaan")

Is Crosby wearing that big fur hat when he rants?

Haven't heard the original, but the Spiritualized cover kicks ass.

Oh, man. 'Lay Down' is such an awesome track. They really give it some.
