Long John Baldry

 A long time ago in the early 1970s,  Ol Mick lived in Portland, Maine & there was  a local station, WBLM, that produced a show, after midnight.


One night I was stoned and the host Mark Persky put this strange song on.


Back then one could not buy such a record locally because such a song was not being produced in America but man o man did I search all over Hell and half of Georgia looking for it.


It took me over a decade to find the album that included this song


The time of day, my state of being, the unusual song so unlike anything being produced at that time in America, made the night seem magical
