Slacker Monday

High temperatures gonna be in the low 70s/high 60s for the forseeable future here in Forest Hills (aka the Paris of the Northeast) so it seems appropriate to revisit a classic.

I can't hear that without going "wow." In fact, if truth be told, there are days when I think that's the Kinks' all-time greatest song.

You're welcome. 😎

That is one great song and one strange video.
What are they wearing?

Was Lola in the audience?

What country was the video shot? It doesn't look like one of the British pop shows of the time.

Was this the moment when Ray started acting gay on stage?

And yes there are days when it may well be the all-time greatest Kinks song!

I think it’s Top of the Pops but don’t quote me.

Yes, yes, yes, yes!
Although yesterday would have been a good day to post 'End of the Season.'

Another fave of this transitional time;
The Autumn Stone - Small Faces
And for the uninitiated- "My Autumn Done Come" by Lee Hazelwood
This is NOT an authorized video for Lee's song but.... judge for yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSd2BR3Ntrs
Happy Monday.

I love the automatic captions provided. The song title is determined to be both “ultimac” and “awesome neck”.

It's Andy Partridge's favorite Kinks song!

I actually owned the 45 of this when it was new. Bought it at Sam Goody at Paramus Mall. 🤫

Wow - this is a song that I've always enjoyed but never understood one damn word (I think) Ray gave his best fey Brit Music Hall performance for TOTP
