Hint: The Clue isn’t referring to any particular Fitzgerald book, and it requires two lyrical pieces to solve, one from The Beatles and one from another artist.
All You Need Is Love – the Beatles’ huge hit single in the ‘Summer of Love’, 1967.
Scott – from F. Scott Fitzgerald
McKenzie – from Eleanor Rigby
Scott McKenzie – who also had a major hit single in the ‘Summer of Love’ with the song ‘San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair)’.

Offline Hmmm…it may be the influence of the special cup image from the previous game, but I’m thinking Dylan here. From “Ballad of a Thin Man”:
Ah, you’ve been with the professors and they’ve all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have discussed lepers and crooks
You’ve been through all of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s books
You’re very well-read, it’s well-known
But something is happening here and you don’t know what it is
Do you, Mr. Jones?
This leads to the lyric from The Beatle’s “Yer Blues “:
The eagle picks my eye
The worm he licks my bone
I feel so suicidal
Just like Dylan’s Mr. Jones

Offline Thanks Walt, that was a good one (and thanks for the guidance). Also nice Scott McKenzie reference Rich. A good memory from the Summer of Love days. Let’s stick with the rock artist theme…

So, guessing, Every Little Thing ?

Offline Good guess, but not the song of which I was thinking.
BTW, from the previous puzzle, how many of you actually owned 45 rpm singles? (A rhetorical question)
No (1x)
