beer commercial song
dave
that neat one 'on the road again' where the cactus take the 6 of MGD from the
truck when that guy stops to move the roadblock out of the way.
I already have "the Weight" by the Band
and "Mannish Boy" by Muddy Waters.
both excellent tunes in their own right.

> Can we start compiling a beer comercial song list on here?
There will be many I'm sure. Let me contribute two that immediately come
to mind:
"When You Say Love" by Sonny and Cher was adapted from an earlier
Budweiser jingle.
Here in Canada The Sweet's "Ballroom Blitz" is used for a Molson
("Canadian"? I think) commercial.
I'll keep thinking about this one ... and return with others later if
required.
Good suggestion. Thanks.

familiar but nobody knows the title of is called "Sleepwalk".

Sorry I can't be more specific on the instumental, but how do you describe one
other than to say it sounds like it was done by Tommy James?

These two songs were their only top 40 hits through 1969.
They hit the top 40 in 1970 with their cover of Wilbert Harrison's
_Let's Work Together_ which had itself been a top 40 hit earlier in 1970.
They had several great albums before Bob Hite and Alan Wilson died.

harp for Canned Heat).

Speaking of Canned heat and bears (besides Bob Hite) does anyone remember
their incredible version of the Smokey the Bear song for a PSA? I used to
hear it on the radio but have no earthly idea if it is available on vinyl
or disc. It SMOKED!! (ha ha get it??)

Are you referring to the Santo and Johnny instrumental?
Steel guitar solo, I believe...

Slight correction: according to Whitburn, the record label reads:
Jaime Robbie Robertson, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel, Garth Hudson,
Levon Helm
They apparently shortened it to The Band for subsequent records.

(geddit???). As a result they re-released the single and it went high in
the charts.
