In this episode, we chew on a sweet piece of 1966 bubblegum, "Stop! Get a Ticket" by The Clefs of Lavender Hill(1:11). People say it's Beatle-esque, but we think it's better described as Hollies-esque, The handclaps (and drumbeats) will be what you remember the most, but don't sleep on the "race for your love" lyrics or you're gonna lose your baby! In 1967, Cleveland's Statesmen paid the fare and released their version of the song (36:02). It's slower and less peppy, BUT they add organ and FUZZ, as well as some va-va-voom vibrato on the vocals. That same year, Nederbeat high numbers The Groovy's heeded the train whistle and their ride kicks off a la "Last Train to Clarksville" (49:48). This one'll get the guitar gearheads feelin' groovy - a fast and fun ride with jittery rhythm guitar and lotsa hooks! Catch it!!!
