Ken Ray Wilemon making a special holiday appearance to hit random cymbals while I learn Chistmas carols as I play them.
Gilbert Neal and Ken Ray Wilemon - Let It Snow
Jenny Daren - Heartbreaker (1978) This song was written for her.
Lord Sitar - I Am the Walrus (1968) Big Jim Sullivan was an English studio guitarist who appeared on some records as a sitarist before this release.
American Spring - This Whole World (1972) Brian Wilson's wife in a revival of her group "The Honeys" with her sister. Not bad, because Brian Wilson produced it with love. A few years later she would help ruin "The Beach Boys Love You".
Gilbert Neal and Ken Ray Wilemon - Superstar
Gilbert Neal and Ken Ray Wilemon - The Christmas Song
Three Dog Night - A Change is Gonna Come (1969)
Barry McGuire - California Dreaming (1965) The original version with Mama's and Papa's backing track which they would later use. Stereophiles can still here McGuire's vocals with careful listening.
Be Bop Deluxe - Jet Silver and the Dolls of Venus (1974)
Bette Midler - Hang On In There Baby (1979)
Bob Seger - Turn the Page (rarely heard studio version) (1973)
Bruce Welch - Please Mister Please (1974) Bruce Welch cowrote the song and released this unsuccessful first version.
George Duke - Dookie Stick (1978)
George Jones - The Poor Chinee (1970)
Gilbert Neal and Ken Ray Wilemon - Silent Night
Captain and Tennille - God Only Knows (1975)
Joey Heatherton - God Only Knows (1972)
Grace Slick - Better Lying Down (1974)
Mick Ronson - I'm The One (1974) I love this cover of an obscure Annette Peacock song. Mick was in The Spiders From Mars (WITH David Bowie - an important distinction) and Annette would appear with Bill Bruford's band. Pretty faithful version!
Joey Heatherton - Gone 1972
Jon Farrar - Falling (1980)
John Lennon - The Luck of the Irish (live and Yoko-less) (1972)
Keith Moon - Move Over Ms. L (1975)
Led Zeppelin - Royal Orleans (1976)
Leah Zavaroni - Jump Down Jimmy (1980)
The Clash - Lightning Strikes (Not Once But Twice) 1980
Gale Garnett and the The Gentle Reign - Peace Comes Slowly to the Thrashing Fish (1969) Gale Garnett had a hit in 1965 with the self-penned "We'll Sing in the Sunshine". Then she started smoking that devil weed, I guess.
Rich Little - Rappin' Ronnie (1982)
