So I guess I don’t think about it that often...
 

but I just remembered I personally know a member of famous band Rare Earth (mainly for their 21mins., 6secs. version of Get Ready, originally recorded by The Temptations 12/5, 9, & 29/65, and released 2/7/66, and cover recorded in 1969, released 2/18/70.), who has been with them since September of 1984, since I was roughly 3½.

Pretty cool, just don’t think about it that often, but from what I know about the band, they're pretty awesome.

Oh, also, btw, if anyone comes across the unedited, 21 minute version (the Rare Earth version) of Get Ready anywhere on the web, be sure to post it in this thread or at least a link to it...I’d love to hear it in it’s entirety, since I don’t believe any radio station has probably ever played the full version...

And, no, the full version is not on youtube, just the edited 4min. version. (bleah)

Knowing good musicians is the shit.
