In October 2000, George Michael was revealed as the mystery buyer of a remarkable piece of music history. He paid $2.1 million at auction for an item once owned by John Lennon, saying he wanted it kept in Britain and accessible to the public rather than hidden away in a private collection. What did George Michael buy for $2.1 million? A) The instrument used to compose "Imagine" B) Lennon’s painted Rolls-Royce C) One of Lennon’s Beatles suits D) The "Psychedelic Eye" pool mosaic

@Hot_Pepper76 Tells a good story.

Heard this for the first time in the wee early hours, and it stuck right away. Love the intro. The Hollies, "Bus Stop" (1966) A rainy bus stop meeting turns into a love story. Hit No. 5. Who remembers this one?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

@BuzzPatterson St Elmo is in the house

Do you know what this is?

@Hot_Pepper76 My friends and I had them. And Matchbox.

Didn't it seem like just about every boy growing up had Hot Wheels? Had to double check this one. It is real. Tanner Foust jumped 332 feet at the Indianapolis 500 in 2011 in a Hot Wheels sponsored stunt, setting a world record at the time. This looks exactly like something my son used to build. I still have his huge duffle bag full of Hot Wheels. He told me to hang on to them so he can pass them down to his kids one day.

@Hot_Pepper76 Yeah; it’s kind of cool yet corny.

"Girl Watcher" (1968) The brass got my attention on this one. The O'Kaysions took this to No. 5 in 1968, and it ended up being their biggest hit. Will you add this to your oldies playlist?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

@Hot_Pepper76 Yes Preferably the mono mix which Paul sings solo, not double tracked.

"And I Love Her" (1964) Paul McCartney called this one one of the first ballads he felt truly proud of writing. Quiet, simple, and beautiful. Do you still stop and listen when this comes on?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

@Hot_Pepper76 The Yardbirds!

"For Your Love" 1965 This is the song that pushed Eric Clapton to quit this band, because he wanted to stick to blues, not pop. Jeff Beck replaced him. Do you remember the band's name?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

@Hot_Pepper76 Matt Helm series. I’ve watched them. Campy fun. You gotta be in a certain mood to watch, so just turn off your brain!

Murderers' Row (1966) with Dean Martin and Ann-Margret. I have not seen this movie, but this clip is hilarious.😂 Dean Martin: "You'll break something..." I wonder if the movie is worth watching?

@BuzzPatterson Phony lyin’ ed making stuff up again. Block.

No he’s not.

@Hot_Pepper76 No, not then. Seemed like riding a carousel. I think I get it now

"Spinning Wheel" (1969) The singer-songwriter said it was really about life coming full circle, good times, hard times, and the truth that nothing stays the same forever. Did you know what this song meant when you listened to it? x.com/calmalgodown/s…

Curt was a great player, but actual slaves might beg to differ. There was nothing stopping him from pursuing another career; hardly comparable to slavery. If he didn’t think the 90k was worth it, he was free to find another job. Playing major league baseball is a privilege, not a right.

When Howard Cosell asked Curt Flood during a TV interview, how could he compare his rift with professional baseball to slavery, when he was making $90,000 a year? Curt Flood told Cosell: “A well-paid slave is nonetheless a slave”. Jackie Robinson and Hank Greenberg were the only two connected with baseball who testified on Curt Flood's behalf, at trial. "His historic challenge to reserve clause transcended baseball. He courageously sacrificed his career to take stand for the rights of all players. If the HOF recognizes individuals with biggest impact on our game, it is undeniable that Curt Flood should be in the HOF". Tony Clark. Curt Flood would take pitch after pitch to allow Lou Brock the opportunity to steal bases and was terrific at hitting behind the runner and bunting. Curt Flood was in fact tied for fifth with the most sacrifice hits during the 1960's. From September 3, 1965 to June 2, 1967, Flood played 226 games in the outfield, handled 568 chances - a league record - without committing an error. Two weeks after his streak was broken, Flood completed the first unassisted double play by an National League outfielder since 1945. Curt Flood is in my HOF!!

@Hot_Pepper76 Good lord. Neighbor needs to get a life.

It was 5:15pm, Easter weekend. My teen is babysitting triplets who are nine years old. They are outside in our backyard, playing and singing, and a neighbor came over to complain that they were too loud. Not midnight, not blasting music, just kids being kids outside. I love the sound of kids playing and singing.

@Hot_Pepper76 Yes and yes.

"Tuesday Afternoon" 1967 The Moody Blues reportedly wrote this one on a Tuesday afternoon. I made this clip longer, will you listen to the end? Is this on your playlist? It's on mine now. x.com/calmalgodown/s…

@Hot_Pepper76 I prefer the Manfred Mann version.

"Mighty Quinn" (1968) Written by Bob Dylan during his Basement Tapes era, this sat unreleased for years. Manfred Mann took it to No. 1 in the UK and Top 10 in the U.S. Which version gets your pick, this one or Dylan's?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

@Hot_Pepper76 So many bands, and of course all the well known ones…but particularly a song by Amboy Dukes (Ted Nugent’s early band) called Journey to the Center of Your Mind! Come along if you dare…

Every song I have lined up for today is from the 60s. Who is your go-to 60s band, and which song takes you right back?

@BuzzPatterson As a kid, I thought the Air Force would be a great choice because of her. 😎

Who else growing up thought Jeannie in “Dream of Jeannie”was super hot?

@BuzzPatterson Until they address the fraud in MN, CA, and CO, they can shut the hell up about spending on anything else!!

Put your kid up for adoption yet?

@BuzzPatterson The baby prop rep. Still uses it in the emails she sends out.

@BuzzPatterson Absolutely-they’re so obvious these days.

In all the things that never happened, this is the neverest.

@BuzzPatterson Hours upon hours of monitoring static in your headset. And then came Satcom and ACARS; that was a thing of beauty!

God, the number of times I listened to this on the HFs (before we had SelCal).
