"Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology Song)" - Marvin Gaye

walrus

"Mercy Mercy Mercy"- the Buckinghams
Based on the Cannonball Adderly Quintet tune written by no less than my hero Joe Zawinul, founder of Weather Report.
One of the first jazz cross-over hits.

DANG! That was one of those '90's alt-rockers I been just waiting to post!
Figures it'd be you!
:highly_amused:

Oh well, got a '60's chestnut just waitin' fer the right opportunity lately....

"Beck's Bolero"- Jeff Beck with miscellaneous session dudes including Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Nicky Hopkins and Keith Moon.
Current legend (I just made it up) has it that the only reason this didn't become Led Zeppelin was that at the last moment Moon chickened out on actually quitting the Who.
(That part's true)
