Well, whenever I get in a mood to surf the web, I often find myself on You Tube, bouncing around from one video to another. I like looking at somewhat obscure performances of groups I listened to as a kid, especially from the late 60s and 70s. Sometimes, people just take the audio and put together their own montage, sort of “interpreting” the music. But what i really enjoy are the rarities from old TV shows. So, in an effort to put an obligatory You Tube link on my blog, here is one I found of the Guess Who’s “Laughing,” evidently from a pilot of a Canadian TV show. The title says it’s 1970 but I think the song was actually out in 68 or 69. The video is grainy, with a countdown timer embedded onscreen, and the audio is crackly, but there is something about it I like. I chose it as one of my “favorites” on You Tube.
