Both of your songs are very enjoyable especially, for me, the Guess Who @PeteS in CA

The photo might not be the clearest, but I never noticed, the guy on the right-most looks First Nation, Native American for us.

IIRC, the Guess Who were a Canadian group.

I've heard Barry McGuire's 1970s studio and live albums. He definitely is better live, and in studio tended toward over-production. I also saw him live ~1980. He really is good at relating to an audience.

   You beat me as far as 'Time' songs go in the 60's @Hoodat .  After searching laboriously, I'm tapped out.  Let's tackle the 70's when we come back up.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

I think my generation is finally coming to the conclusion that their most popular "music" stinks.

Thanks to reruns, the Internet and growing up with "oldies" on the radio, we can now judge for ourselves... and there's a lot of new appreciation for the older stuff. ('Course, there's a nugget of nostalgia in every generation.)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
