Yeah Jason, but you can say the same thing about a nice chunk of
Northern tracks out there when it comes to obscurity. I try to drill a
lot of these songs into peoples minds quite often, but I think a lot of
people are too finiky and will close up to it. I think people get
Shankar because "Jumpin' Jack Flash" seems to be one the only Stones
tracks anybody plays these days. I like to throw in the Boyce & Hart
version of that song to see if anybody is paying attention.
