WLS - strange weather for you. Glad to see you here
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:43pm
Dennis Diken:

@Jon Graboff - a Bob Crewe artist - I think he may have done the original version of "Concrete & Clay" or he released his concurrently with Unit 4 & 2's version? he never forked a whole lotta lightning, alas, but made some cool sides!
  2:43pm
Nezrok:

Made it! Hey there.
Avatar 2:44pm
Jon Graboff:

DD. Ah. Interesting. Do you have his version of Concrete and Clay? That would be interesting to hear!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:44pm

Aside from the fact I love this song, "Rose Petals, Incense and a Kitten" sounds like a Carnak answer.

hi there Nezrok

Jon Graboff:

The Association where so non-threatening during the turbulent 60's that my parents even found them bland!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:45pm
Dennis Diken:

@Nezrok - glad you're here! @Jon G - in time! @myron feld - THAT'S A SCREAM!!!!
  2:46pm
Joe W.:

Denny,

Don’t know if you remember seeing The Association at BB King’s several years ago and, after the show, we were talking about how bummed out we were that about half the show was other artist’s covers. Major bummer since it was rare to see them play NYC.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:46pm
Eric R:

now we have to come up with the question!
Avatar 2:47pm
Jon Graboff:

DD. Ya got my vote!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:47pm
myron feld:

@Eric: remember, this is a family show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:49pm
Dennis Diken:

@Jon Graboff - hmm, bland is hardly a word I'd use to describe the most godlike Association. but that's just me (and a million of my friends)...but I get ya. @Joe W - I do recall that show and how they ignored so many key songs of their own they coulda done.
Avatar 2:50pm
Jon Graboff:

DD. Gangin' up on me with your "million friends' huh? Heh
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:50pm
Mike Sin:

Love that Birthday LP by the Association, but the cover is so much more psychedelic than the music!
Avatar ♥ 2:51pm
MOM WHIG:

Mike welcome to DD's show today
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:52pm
Dennis Diken:

@Mike Sin - hey! agreed! Birthday is a stone classic, replete with Hal & Joe O at the peak of their powers!!
Avatar 2:53pm
Jon Graboff:

DD. Do you know where this Solomon Burke track was recorded?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:54pm
Dennis Diken:

@Jon G - I can look it up some year when I have the time but it sure sounds like the Muscle Shoals lads here. his earlier cuts were done in NYC
Avatar 2:55pm
Jon Graboff:

DD. Yeah. Sure don't sound like a rekkid recorded above the Mason Dixon line!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:57pm
Dennis Diken:

@Jon G -although Atlantic did bring the Swampers to NYC for some seshes, yeah? but this sounds like Fame, me guesses
Avatar 2:58pm
Jon Graboff:

Yeah. Doesn't really sound like Stax or American in Memphis
