This will be fun
I think Laugh Laugh doesn’t fit, and I nominate Universal Soldier as a replacement, but not the Donovan version but the Buddy St. Marie version, although, I think I could argue that either would do;). Laugh Laugh was by the Beau Brummell from San Francisco. All the other artists…..
Hey Bill!
Yes you nailed it! However I’m curious How can you argue that Donovan’s version would qualify?
I don’t believe he’s Canadian…
Can you ‘Splain?
