@teatles.bsky.social I saw this exhibit last year but sadly could not find any Teatles; looking through the book just now I spotted one of Ringo from a backstage shot (Xmas Palladium show?). Perhaps there was no tea in the US and they just drank coke in bottles...

Ed Ames - Let's Get Together (1969)
Sure I could post the Youngbloods version, but not when there's a fab easy listening cut. Who knew Big Ed was just a hippy at heart?

The Beau Brummels - Mr. Tambourine Man

In 1966 Warners (their new label) forced the band to record an LP of covers of the day. It killed their momentum and put a drag on their career. Great folk-rock arrangement though.
