    I met Hoyt in my early 20's.(only once) I liked him quite a lot.
    He was singing this song as he toured.



    We were going though a heroin epidemic at the time. He told of friends he had lost

    WOW! I just found time to listen to my last post and WOW!
    This demonstrates how crapply labels treat B and C talent. That ungodly orchestration is Is is Hedious!

    It sounds infinity better with just Hoyt.

    You can try and listen around it...LOL

    I'm often disappointed when watching a live video performance, even at times by some of my favs.

    I find myself longing for the same tonal qualities I'm use to hearing on the original recording.With this guy, you can forget all that, he brings it with him when he comes!
    Turns out I'm not the only one who changes lyrics upon a whip...I DID laugh

    Thank you for posting these three, PPM!

    Off topic, but perhaps interesting, European popular music was so behind the times in 1964...
    glad they finally at least tried to catch up with the Anglophone world.

    Attacking one of the true greats, sure the lyrics COULD read like this post claims. Ha ha!
    B-b-but...

    Thought that this is most definitely worth a re-post.




    Along with the original, why would anyone else bother to "give" us THEIR version? Can't get better than this, again, imho.

    It's great that you met him, I'm glad that you liked each other. Jfsg, (just for poops and grins)
    snowblind pertains to cocaine.
    I agree, these violins nearer to the end of the song are a REAL insult.

    Only the most insulated from popular "culture." I most certainly sang along with this tune.

    Certainly new to me, thank you Daniel.
    Dunno if that's a harmonium or accordion or both.

    One of the best Mac songs, imho.
