What that song has always said to me is: "We smug folkies are too hip and cool
to make Rock AND Roll music like Dylan did so we'll just poke fun at it". PP&M
could have evolved into a decient folk-rock group if they wanted to. Imagine
what might have happened if Sloan/Barri could have produced them. But they
didnt, and thier popularity died in the late 60's.

You mean "Sweet Soul Music" by Arthur Conley. That record was produced by Otis
himself and Aurthur wrote the lyrics, talk about a kiss-ass. Why does he
mention Lou Rawls... LOU "Michelob" RAWLS?
