Hmm, thanks. It is indeed in Up-Tight, although hard to know who exactly is saying it, it appears that Bockris himself is asserting it. Seems to be pretty widely accepted though. Still, would be nice if there were a quote of Andy himself saying it, if not Paul Morrissey or something. Somebody even made this, although I also don’t think it is “real,” the only legit one seems to be from 2002, for Warhol’s 74th birthday.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQyVd2xzbKs

hunted the internet for quite a long time looking for the BBC TV show that used this song -- the pentangle version -- as its themetune, before i remembered that it was actually another pentangle song on the same LP ("light flight" on basket of light) and the show was take three girls: three young women share a flat in swinging london, two series, only a few eps still now exist :(

Sorry for my OCD pedantry but there is a qualitative difference between something someone listens to and hears all the time and a song that they declare their favorite especially if that someone is the oracular sphinx that is Warhol.

I will work on a creepy / spooky oldies list over the next few days.

Just revisited the Great Society version, and I think it's pretty cool... almost VU-like.

Great Society version is growing on me, but now I really want to here Micky Dolenz singing in his psychedelic Grace Slick voice accompanying himself on his Moog.#onethread

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J--eQV1aaQEPeter Tork version not doing much for me.
And here is the Susanna Hoffs version I mentioned a few posts back, which follows her traditonal winning practice of approximating the original track as closely as possible and singing the heck out of it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpfMN7R2zHk

woah, that's pretty cool. finding the kinship between the original and Tomorrow Never Knows.

Quite an odd song for Pentangle to pick up on, I think; not really their usual source material.

Finally hearing the upright bass on the original. Also some bells near the end.
