Melbourne jazz festival week or two is coming up. I'll be off to see Dr. Lonnie Smith and the B3.
Anyone have some recommendations based on the lineup?

Superb. I've always loved that tune. Both songs compliment each...
That's a nice way to say "stole".

Well...er...
Here's the original by Billy Stewart

I had never heard either one of those versions of "Sitting in the Park". I just meant that The Rascals seemed to have Borrowed from the Georgie fame version consiously or unconsiously.

Ah, I see. Probably the former. Lummy! I'd never heard the similarity between the two songs until now...or are you some kind of a Machieavellian spin doctor...? ;-)

That Georgie Fame song sounds a little like this too. http://youtu.be/QI3o83QKbHk

Never heard most of the stuff you're playing Lee. I'm getting a little of this kind of vibe from that Billy Nichols song. Spanky and Our gang were a kind of folk rock hippie group but maybe there was some trans Atlantic cross pollination going on with the British Mods in the mid 60s. http://youtu.be/0zx4i_cNJmU

The Action - Shadows & Reflections
I hear alittle of this in The Action too. http://youtu.be/pTGTOHeegDo

I really like both of those bands. I have a yen for what is known as 'Sunshine Pop'. Bands such as Spanky and Our Gang,The Association,The Millenium,Harper's Bizarre, Eternity's Children etc. sound like a hybrid of The Beach Boys and The Mamas and Papas . All wonderful stuff. Play this kind of music and any aches and pains brought on by the (traditionally damp) British climate are immediately irradicated. ;-)
