There were a few of Bill and Steve’s 45’s nestled away behind the bar in the Hammond’s music studio. Once discovered, Molly and I put them to good use. These are the A sides of those 45’s:
1966 The Last Train To Clarkesville The Monkees
The Last Train to Clarksville Lyrics
Take the last train to Clarksville And I'll meet you at the station You can be here by four thirty 'Cause I've made your reservation
Don't be slow Oh, no, no, no Oh, no, no, no
'Cause I'm leavin' in the morning And I must see you again We'll have one more night together 'Til the morning brings my train
And I must go Oh, no, no, no Oh, no, no, no And I don't know If I'm ever comin' home
Take the last train to Clarksville I'll be waiting at the station We'll have time for coffee flavored kisses And a bit of conversation
Oh, no, no, no Oh, no, no, no
I'm feelin' low Oh, no, no, no Oh, no, no, no And I don't know If I'm ever coming home
Oh
Take the last train to Clarksville And I'll meet you at the station You can be here by four thirty 'Cause I made your reservation
Don't be slow Oh, no, no, no Oh, no, no, no And I don't know If I'm ever coming home
Take the last train to Clarksville Take the last train to Clarksville Take the last train to Clarksville Take the last train to Clarksville
1966 Good Vibrations The Beach Boys
Good Vibrations Lyrics
I-I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations (Oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (Good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations)
Close my eyes, she's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations (Oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (Good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations)
(Ahh)
(Ah, my my, what elation)
I don't know where but she sends me there
(Oh, my my, what a sensation)
(Oh, my my, what elation)
(Oh, my my, what)
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin'
(Ahh)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
(I'm pickin' up good vibrations) (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations
Na na na na na, na na na
Na na na na na, na na na (Bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
Do do do do do, do do do (Bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
Do do do do do, do do do (Bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
1967 The Return of the Red Baron The Royal Guardsmen
The Return of the Red Baron Lyrics
You remember that baron flying high in the sky
When Snoopy shot him down with a gleam in his eye
But that German had leaped from his blood red plane
Just before it burst into a ball of flame
Snoopy circled back, checked his kill
Saw that bloody Red Baron standing high on a hill
Then he swooped down low, shouted, "Curse you, Red Baron!"
The German shook his fist. You could hear him swear
Hey, watch out, there, Snoopy. You're really in a mess
You thought you were through with that bloody Red Baron
But it looks like he's not down, yet
Then a cry went up all over the land
The bloody Red Baron would strike again
But, brave, little Snoopy said, "Never fear."
As he headed for his plane, all the people cheered
Hey, watch out, little Snoopy. You're really in a mess
You thought you were through with that bloody Red Baron
But it looks like he's not down, yet
Snoopy blazed a trail straight across the sea
Searching in vain for his enemy
Then he found that German trying to fix his plane;
A-sweatin' and a-flustered, about to go insane
Snoopy landed for a pistol duel
The Baron was worried; Snoopy was cool
He fired a shot, missed, started to run
Before Snoopy had a chance to raise his gun
Hey, watch out, Red Baron. Snoopy is on your trail
One of these days, he's gonna make you pay, and you'll go straight to
Well, watch out, Red Baron. Snoopy is on your trail
One of these days, he's gonna make you pay, and you'll go straight to...
