LD-6: “All right, here’s one you may well know, you may not know it. And if you don’t know it, I really don’t know where you’ve been.”

Wow - I never expected this one to be a stumper, so I’ll give some hints: The album it’s from was released in 1971. It’s the intro to one of the two live cuts on the album. It’s a British superstar covering a song by another British superstar. Does that help?

No, but it sure makes me feel dumb for not knowing the answer–sounds like it ought to be something right up my alley.

Mind you, I didn’t expect to stump the board with a Beatles track! :eek:

Ha ha, I thought about putting this one in, but didn’t think anybody would get it. It’s “Beers, Steers and Queers” by the Revolting Cocks. Now the remix of that song, there’s an intro.

its funny because i must of listened to ‘Bummed’ about a 1000 times since it came out, and i always thought Shaun Ryder said “you’ve read the midnight scaffolding dangerous!”  
judging by the way most of his lyrics are pretty offbeat, i didnt think anything of it…

There are more people who smoke marijuana than there are Americans.  
There are 300 million people who use marijuana, that’s a majority.
