That seems to be a popular one. Think I'm going with "Jump Sturdy," which I first heard on s/t Manfred Mann album. Also Dr. John's dad's favorite, I believe

Ha, thought the thread-title query was some throwaway Night Tripper lyric, didn't realize it was Ertegun's lament till I did a little googling! Such a bizarre record...

"Splinters" for me

Going to have to go with Guilded Splinters although Jump Sturdy runs it close.

Songs where it's fun to say HOOS in place of the actual lyrics:
Mama HOOS
