(ΒΉ977) Written by Aaron Copeland in 1942, inspired in part by a speech by VP Henry A. Wallace, in which he proclaimed the dawning of the "Century of the Common Man". He went on to become the nominee of the new Progressive Party in the 1948 presidential election. #MusicSky youtu.be/AVxTcGftXFk?...
1966 garage rock from San Francisco, CA. The Fall famously covered the song in 1986.

1965 "frantic " garage rock from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Apparently they played live between showings of The Beatles "Help" at one local theater and then the audience was able to purchase a copy of their latest 45. #MusicSky

June 1979. I actually like their version of this Bob Dylan song (1966, "Blonde on Blonde" album) even better than the original. But Bob did write one of the best lines ever in rock 'n roll: " To live outside the law you must be honest...". π

(1968) Spanky & Our Gang,. From Chicago, this band that helped spawn the "sunshine pop" sub genre, released this song the year NYC launched the "Give A Damn" campaign to address the needs of those living in poverty. The song invites those of privilege to see.

No one ran in a suit like Mannix. But Cinnamon was one of my childhood alter-egos - even though I always had to ask my Dad "Why are they doing that?" and "How do they make all those disguise faces?"

Every March for many years Mike "Keegan" Cannon climbed the iconic Annie Bridge in Kearny, NJ so the Irish flag could wave proudly over the Passaic River- visible from Newark to the entire surrounding area. The girder stands empty with his passing but the tradition he created remains alive. RIP. βοΈ
