Am:  Drive-By Truckers — American Band

Note that the album title doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the Grand Funk Railroad song with a similar name.

 

Next:  Wilco — Schmilco

Note that the album title doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the Harry Nilsson album with a similar name.  Similarly, Wilco’s last album, Star Wars, doesn’t have anything to do with the movie nor the Reagan-era missile defense system with the same name.

 

Back to DBT, there’s a song on the album that could be added to the “Beatles referenced in other songs” list — “Once They Banned Imagine .”  Refers to the list of songs the Clear Channel recommended their DJs not play in the days immediately after 9/11, one of which was “Imagine .”  The list also included Ticket To Ride , A Day In The Life , Ob La Di, Ob La Da, and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds .  Go figure!

The song’s chorus:

 

But once they banned Imagine it became the same old war it’s always been

Once they banned Imagine it became the war it was when we were kids

Semi avant-garde jazz from 1964 (to be exact, March 31 – Beatles film the “Hard Day’s Night” concert sequence, “Can’t Buy Me Love ” #1 in the USA; within the week they’d own the top five!

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

@Beatlebug, believe it or not, the kazoo is what turned me on to post-Syd Floyd. My parents were never into Pink Floyd, so I had to buy their music myself. I went in sequence, and when I got to A Saucerful Of Secrets and heard Corporal Clegg I fell in love immediately. 

Now I’m listening to Buffalo Springfield Again… Again! I have been listening to this album all of the time. It is magical.
