It’s absolutely clear you need a small hit of meth to get through this week. – Llama 3
We’ve got three ’60s musicians’ obituaries this week, but since I never cared for the Beach Boys and the Family Stone trumps the Electric Prunes, here’s a song I think is more timely now than when it was released in 1968. The links above it were provided by Ryan Marino (“stupidity” and “much”); IncarcerNation (“never” and “theft”); Jesse Walker (“Sly” and “James”); Scott Greenfield (“Brian”); and Wendy Lyon (“Dracula”).
