Love - Gather Round (1969)
Sound-wise this song from Love’s 5th LP seems like a return to the folk-rock of their self-titled debut LP.  The lyrics are another story:
Gather ‘round people as fast as you can I'm gonna tell another story ‘bout an animal called man Well, he struts all around with his tailor made suits But his mind is all filled up with bullshit

Tonight’s random record shelf pull…
Love “Love” 1966
Ace LA garage psychedelic folk act lead by Arthur Lee. The album leads off with a cover of Burt Bacharach’s “My Little Red Book”. Interestingly early Pink Floyd were trying to cover this arrangement but weren’t being successful and came up with “Interstellar Overdrive” instead!
The other song I’m going to highlight is “Signed DC” which I first heard through a cover by Grant Hart of Hüsker Dü. It’s a pretty heavy song about drug addiction. 1966 seems pretty early in the game to putting such heavy material on a pop album but here it is.
And of course it seems almost every garage folk babb mc d of the time covered “Hey Joe”
Love would go on to better albums but this was a great start!

I congratulate you upon the general Success Col. Lawrence's [John Laurens] negotiations at Versailles. I should be exceedingly happy to find all our negotiations succeed as well. Yet the gentleman has been calumniated in one of the English papers in a gross manner. His real character has been denied in the face of Europe, and he has been held up in a very inferior one. They have been told that he is deficient in experience and abilities; and that therefore congress supplied this deficiency, by putting him under the patronage of Mr. Payne [Thomas Paine]. From this scandal he has not wanted a vindication. He will need none in our country.
Source — Francis Dana to Arthur Lee, [May 17, 1781]
Laurens was infamous in Europe for his terrible diplomat skills to say the least.
