Before recording "Spirit in the Sky" Norman Greenbaum recorded under what name?

And what was their one song that was played on some FM stations in the 60's?

Even stumped the master?

The name was "Dr. West's Medicine Show and Junk Band" and the one song they had on FM radio in the hazey daze of the 60's was "The Eggplant That Ate Chicago."

Damn,,,I found that answer on his personal website last night,,,but wasn't sure it was the correct answer. That'll teach me not to post, lol. My chance to outwit, outplay the master Tangled, is gone.

If it had been an SAT question I guess they would have tossed it out. Sorry about that!

I think I may have posted this incident someplace before on this site... Several years ago a friend of mine was at Tower Records and was browsing. Also, some young guys were also browsing and one of them remarked "Hey look Paul McCartney was in another group before Wings!"

Tangled - back in the mid 60's,,,when you were roaming around in smoke filled bong rooms,,,,you probably couldn't name the Beatles either,

CJ and I should get credit for researching Dr. West,,,,but not posting that answer due to lack of clarification within the question.

There was always an intermural team called "The Nads" when I was in college.

My team was called the Cunning Linguists.
