Tales from the Canyon

Friend of PowerPop (and moi) Sal Nunziato turned me onto this track on Friday and I can't stop playing it.

A great song, obviously (The Mamas and the Papas next to last single), and beautifully recreated (BTW, I was previously unfamiliar with Autoliner).

But now I really want to hear somebody update the M&Ps final record, the utterly gorgeous 1968 "Safe in My Garden..."

...which is one of the greatest lost singles of the Sixties.

Hmm. There's a theme for the rest of the week's postings. Get crackin', Steve.
