HA! I saw Barry Mcguire live at RAF Lakenheath in 1982. Guess what song he didn't do? Even of Destruction! :headhurts: At this point of his career was all Christian, so guess he didn't want any lingering remains of his hard-partying (successful) past.
Eve of Destruction was the #1 song in the U.S. in September of 1965. This crossover hit from Jeannie C. Riley was the #1 song in the U.S. in September of 1968. Here she is in 1997. [YT="Harper Valley PTA"]H9QoG3JS1ls[/YT] Written by Tom T. Hall
You CANNOT dislike this song! It's physically/scientifically impossible. Behold the awesomeness! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwCHFaarTjY

WTF? 77 years old? And he still sounds better with nothing but a microphone than half these clowns today with all their studio production technology! No auto tune for this guy! :santa_ok:

That good old mountain dew (not the soft drink if you get my drift). I had a couple sips of Tennessee corn likker after work today. Thus, this song was on my mind - enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ug8p5pVsj9U

HA! Somebody did a "get a haircut" parody called "Get a hooker and get a blow job" when Hugh Grant got caught with that ugly skank hooker in the 90's.
