Do you remember “Let it (all hang) out” by The Hombres? I dug it up and play it today. The Memphis band released that in 1967 (how old were you?) and the song has been redone by David Lee Roth and John Mellencamp among others. It was let out in the beginning of the psychedelic era. You’ll also hear my spotlight on Chris Hillman, who was a Byrd, played with The Flying Burrito Bros, Stephen Stills’ Manassas, Desert Rose Band, JD Souther and Richie Furay and had success as a solo act. He’s a player, for sure. There’s even a pair from The Beau Brummels.
Get your instrument ready for our first JimJam on this episode. We play The Stones’ Lady Jane together. The story behind this segment is in a previous blog here.
