John Mayall - "I'm Gonna Fight for You J.B."
When John Mayall was starting another band after the break-up of the Bluesbreakers in May 1969, he decided to have a band that would play "low volume music" – or music without "heavy lead guitar and drums".
"I'm Gonna Fight For You, J.B.", is a tribute to the American blues guitarist J. B. Lenoir who died in 1967 and who had a deep influence on Mayall

Tom Rush -Urge For Going (Joni Mitchell)
Back in November 2020, ten months into covid, 79-year old Tom Rush performed an online-only concert from home since actual in-person live anything (much less concert touring) had been suspended. This acoustic performance of Joni Mitchell's "The Urge for Going" is the same haunting arrangement he did originally 55 years earlier back in 1966 when he was age 25, played from a demo tape very early one morning on the Dick Summer overnight show on WBZ in Boston. The rest is history, for Tom Rush and for Joni Mitchell. Enjoy.

The Mamas & The Papas - Monterey (1967)
0. 00 Straight Shooter 4:38 Got A Feelin’ 8:40 California Dreamin’ 12:01 Spanish Harlem 15:20 Somebody Groovy 19:49 I Call Your Name 26:04 Monday, Monday 29:58 San Francisco 33:29 Dancing In The Street
The Mamas & the Papas were an American folk rock vocal group that recorded and performed from 1965 to 1968, with a brief reunion in 1971. The group was a defining force in the music scene of the counterculture of the 1960s. Formed in New York City, the group consisted of Americans John Phillips, Cass Elliot, and Michelle Phillips, and Canadian Denny Doherty. Their sound was based on vocal harmonies arranged by John Phillips – the songwriter and leader of the group – who adapted folk to the new beat style of the early 1960s.
