45s and Other Revolutions: Indeed More A-Sides beginning with the letter S as in Sierra. From “Streets of Bakersfield” (Dwight Yoakam & Buck Owens) to “Sunshine, Red Wine” (Crazy Elephant) Dwight Yoakam & Buck Owens a side: "Streets of Bakersfield" b side: "One More Name" Reprise Records 7-27964 1988 The Pioneer of the Bakersfield Sound and the Honky Tonk Hip Priest had a smash hit with this 1988 re-recording of a Buck Owens mid-late period classic. The Jackson 5 a side: "Sugar Daddy" b side: "I'm So Happy" Motown Records M 1194F 1971 The Corporation bringing us a little tune song by Jermaine and Michael. Peaked at number 10 on the Hot 100. And a fine slow jam on the flipside. --- The Clique a side: "Sugar on Sunday" b side: "I Am Superman" White Whale WW 323 1969 A fine example of sunshine pop cover of a Tommy James tune on the a-side and a super b-side from these Texans. Hit number 22 on the Hot 100 in 1969. Pavement a side: "Summer Babe" b side: "Mercy Snack/Baptiss Blacktick" Drag City Records DC9 1991 Hot stuff by the crazy kids from Stockton. --- The Lovin' Spoonful a side: "Summer in the City" b side: "Butchie's Tune" Kama Sutra Records KA211 1966 Super classic single from John Sebastian and the boys, including a mighty fine b-side whose instrumental version can also be heard in Antonioni's 1966 opus "Blow Up". Robyn Hitchcock a side: "Sunday Never Comes" b side: "Take Off Your Bandages" Tiny Ghost Records TG-02 2019 Another fantastic outing from this year by Mr. Robyn Hitchcock. The a-side is a proper recording of a demo that can be heard in the 2018 adaptation of Nick Hornby's Juliet, Naked. ---- The Archies a side: "Sunshine" b side: "Over and Over" Kirshner Records 63-1009 1969 Super fine indeed. And say, that flipside has a certain familiar ring to the opening riff. Hmmm... Crazy Elephant a side: "Sunshine, Red Wine" b side: "Pam" Bell Records B-804 1969 Can't say I've ever heard a song about someone named "Pam" before. --- Music behind the DJ: "Main Title" by Herbie Hancock.
