@GeePawHill I approve.

Is it true, or apocryphal, that the BBC banned that song from the air because no one knew what the refrain meant and they assumed it was a drug reference?

@GeePawHill I misremembered. It was banned in Singapore until 1993.

@CoralineAda Nice.

I had a chat one time with David Crosby, in re: Chicago.

Someone had asked him what he thought of their work. Before he answered, I chimed in, "Good idea, poor execution."

And, gosh, I'll remember to my dying day, the great David Crosby *replied* to me.

What he said was so profound I will never forget it.

He said, "Yeah."

That's no paraphrase, that's the literal quote.

(I was *this* close to "25 or 6 to 5", then when I did the minutes in my head, I made them *early* at first, not late.)
