Monday Music Club 12/23/13

As I mentioned on the show, these shows are somewhat chronological. But the first hour did lurch back and forth between early 60s and mid-60s music before it pretty much straightened out and progressed forward consistently (And, as Frank Zappa said once in his liner notes, “You don’t care.”)
