The song I heard was “Stone Soul Picnic.” Hmmmmm. Well, it was the 60s, but I got to laughing a bit when I was listening to the lyrics. Must have been the same writer!<BR/><BR/>They did have a wonderful sound! Wonder where they all are today. Have to google them.<BR/><BR/>GinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379561194571607372.post-56188348137640964842008-06-23T21:44:00.000-07:002008-06-23T21:44:00.000-07:00Im really not to sure how to answer the questions,...Im really not to sure how to answer the questions,but what is truly unfortunate is that I saw that show live,and remember it well!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379561194571607372.post-77590953457950329052008-06-23T20:36:00.000-07:002008-06-23T20:36:00.000-07:00I didn't realize Laura Nyro wrote this and several...I didn't realize Laura Nyro wrote this and several others that I've "sung along with" so many times. Her lyrics dealt with alcohol and the Lord in so many songs. I don't know what a good lookin riverboat might be, but it probably comes from the black music culture. There sure is southern black music influence there, even from a gal who lived in New England! <BR/> <BR/>This song seems to deal directly with alcoholism - being hung over in the morning is just part of the deal, as does being hung over while penning lyrics. Gin Mill spirit is that part of a drunk's life that becomes their whole social world. The addict's whole world spins for the addiction. <BR/> <BR/>When I look at Nyro's pictures, I see a lost soul staring from desolate eyes. I've often wondered why so many great works of art come from artists who are killing themselves with addictions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379561194571607372.post-33943339532150678122008-06-23T17:37:00.000-07:002008-06-23T17:37:00.000-07:00Jan,There is no such thing as having too much FUN!...Jan,<BR/>There is no such thing as having too much FUN!!!ROBERTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09130103117335080071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3379561194571607372.post-30428415462689399172008-06-23T17:32:00.000-07:002008-06-23T17:32:00.000-07:00my question is what kind of manager gave them that...my question is what kind of manager gave them that song?
