That's just one of the mid 60s uses of 'Electrical Banana' - I presumed from Donovan's "Mellow Yellow", but there really WAS a club called that as well!

As for Coven, I'm sure stores refused to carry that and "your parents" would get you trouble for having it - but this was before social media, I think Coven were too underground as you said to get a moral panic about them. Instead they usually seized on suspicious lyrics and things from the largest (but innocuous) groups. Like this original band! (This original album too...)

"Rainbow Ffolly were an English psychedelic pop band who released an album, Sallies Fforth, in 1968. Their only single from 1968, the chugging "Drive My Car" (not the Lennon–McCartney song), failed to garner success on the charts, and they disbanded shortly thereafter. They were signed to EMI's subsidiary Parlophone (which also held The Beatles' contract at that time) during their brief career. The band re-united in 2015 to record a follow up album, Rainbow Ffolly – FFollow Up!."

The "Ffolly" is stylized - I thought they might be Welsh, since the double-f (and double-l) are part of that language.

↳ Song: "Won't Get Fooled Again" by "The Who"
Thing I always say ...had TheWho in the center of my heart since childhood in the mid1970s. But I have to remind myself this was not 1973 or even 2 ...still only '71 & the band trying to surface again from beneath the immensity if what Tommy became.

And thanks for that link!
(Listening to this in my car years ago allowed me to notice just how great (and underrated) the bass was on this).

When TheWho were still growing in Musicianship with every Album. With Producer Glynn Johns - the first time you can really hear each of them as Players as they merited.

4 solo artists, only the bass is regular. K Moon is basically having a seizure

Roger sounds like he's singing a campfire song, that is until he let's it all rip. He really is insisting that he won't be fooled again.

this synth sound

In the sense of the "least talked about" part of the track. Fortunately there are still fans of the bass part all over. But with those vox, guitar, organ, drums...it's important to mention the bass as well!

I said "organ", but considering Pete's use of the ARP synthesizer on "Baba O'Riley" from this album, it well may be the ARP sound.

There is a way that Entwistle got ignored by just standing still & playing his ass off. But in another sense he was exalted for it.

Someone once commented about the "exchange program" - that sent Nancy to London, and in turn Dusty to Memphis. 😉

The songs might be new, but like Julie said these were the same orchestras and session players that did the old "pop" music for over a generation.

Entwistle wasn't ignored. Bass players rarely get credit for their contributions, but that doesn't mean they aren't appreciated. There's no question that Entwistle was admired in ways that, say, Roger Glover wasn't.
