One of the great things about these Blind Dates is that they call your attention to some obscure records from the period. I'd never even heard of The Orange Bicycle much less heard that track, but I quite like it. Some of the chord voicings in the vocal harmonies remind me a bit of I Can See For Miles by The Who.

I believe that "Paperback Writer" is a perfect example of that style from 1966 Revolver period..

Why did they play 'Good Times' (the B-side?) instead of 'San Franciscan Nights' by Eric Burdon and the Animals? 'San Franciscan Nights' (while being an obvious cash-in) was a pretty appealing song, I thought. In regards to 'Burning of the Midnight Lamp', it's a great song but it probably wouldn't have sounded like an obvious pop hit to anyone on first listen. But I like how Dave seems to have something vaguely positive to say about just about every record. Though this was a remarkably good quality bunch. August 1967? Probably not surprising really.

Imagine this dynamic with nowadays artists/singles. It would be full of hypocrit diplomatic opinions made in order to not offend anyone. (Sorry for my bad english... not sorry, really).

Burning of the Midnight Lamp is a great song. His review for it seemed all over the place. Horrible. Original. Instant hit. Lol

Burning of the midnight lamp was a single? I thought it came out on Electric Lady Land. I dont think it's a horrible song at all.

It sounds like " My Jiddish Momma", is it kosher ? I don't know what they're trying to prove.

Why is Dave Davies reviewing the B side of the single for the band "Eric Burdon and the Animals?" In the U.S the A side was "San Franciscan Nights." How odd!

Because in the UK they was released as two separate singles. “Good Times” was released as single on the 18th of August with “Ain’t That So” as the B-Side. And “San Franciscan Nights” was released as a single on the 13th of October with “Gratefully Dead” as the B-Side.

@@europeanfootballisthebest3432 I guess that's why they performed "Good Times" on Piccadilly Palace in 1967.
