Hands down one of the best tunes John Lennon ever came up with; as a 13 year-old hearing this the first time in the 1977 time frame, my mind was blown. Just over a week from 62, I STILL fuckin love it.

Lay down all thoughts
Surrender to the void
It is shining
It is shining
That you may see
The meaning of within
It is being
It is being
There are times I literally sit here on deck and marvel how really quite pretty my yard is on evenings like this.

One of those tunes the Stones did that summarized some of the evil men do (like Hitler’s blitzkrieg in September, 1939, that essentially began WW2) that could be updated just a bit because there’s a shit ton of material from just the past decade thanks to assholes like the FOTUS, Putin and Netanyahu.

The “live” selection on deck is from School Of Rock students covering a Stones tune. As is the case for most of these SOR videos I’ve seen, they all knock it out of the park, especially the two girls doing vocals.

I was 13 and this is one of the tunes that helped me fall in love with this particular Beatles album. Also the final Beatles album with slightly different song lists on Parlophone Records in the U.K. and Capitol Records in the States. Your useless rock trivia for the evening. You’re welcome.

One on deck from one of those 60s “super groups” that I loved playing on the radio.

R.E.M. did a great rendition of this tune for their “Life’s Rich Pageant” album from 1986.

Current ear worm: the first Buffalo Springfield tune (written by Neil Young with Ritchie Furay on lead vocal) I remember hearing as an eight year-old. Yes, even before “For What It’s Worth.”

For that ‘76 Impala station wagon my late brother, one of the world’s biggest Who fans, christened “The Magic Bus” shortly after the purchase a little more than 50 years ago. I don’t feel old! 😉

A breezy, pleasant evening on deck and this one fits right in. There have been other versions, most notably the one by Derek And Dominoes and then Stevie Ray Vaughan did an absolutely brilliant instrumental rendition in the 80s but there’s always been something about the original from the fellow Army veteran and his band that made it a staple of my playlist when I was doing the album rock radio thing in the mid-80s.

I’m sure the surviving Beatles regret ever giving Ted “Douche canoe” Nugent permission to record his version of this George Harrison tune in 1979.

It was the song that played for the end credits of the 1978 film “Coming Home” starring Jane Fonda and Jon Voight. Ironically enough, these days I don’t think those two could be in the same room let alone make a film together.

From the time I first heard this tune as a kid and my late older brother, probably one of THE biggest Who fans ever (he saw them in concert five times), would play it, I kinda always wondered what prompted Pete Townshend to write such a song, which I also thought is actually one of the better tunes from The Who’s 1965 debut album.

Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past?
And with this crutch
Its old age and its wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last"
And the wind cries
"Mary"
The tempo for the evening’s “live” selection on deck is just a smidge slower than Neil Young’s 1969 original but it features not only Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young but also Jim Keltner on drums and Donald “Duck” Dunn on bass. Works for me.

One of those tunes CCR recorded before they were CCR and it ended up on their first album in ‘68. It was a suggestion I had for the setlist of the CCR tribute band that blew through here about a month ago along with “Sweet Hitchhiker.” They appreciated that. I think.

Beatles sing along time ondeck: one of MANY tunes from these guys I actually memorized as a kid growing up in Antigo, Wisconsin, this one featured in their second film, “Help!”

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Runnin' everywhere at such a speed
'Til they find there's no need (there's no need)
Please, don't spoil my day
I'm miles away
And after all
I'm Only Sleeping
This has gotta be among my favorite Neal Young tunes. Another one I always thought was too damn short.
