I just cannot get into them. Nothing specific, just not there. Do you not find the track I posted melodic J?

It's great! and it made me laugh. Completely new to me. I don't know why, but even at its short length it felt a bit longer - maybe that's what you get sometimes with bright and breezy pop like that. But it's very much my kind of thing. I really like it when bands have absolutely nothing to say I haven't done any research but there's a German band from around 1968 (the name eludes me right now) who were making very similar sounds. The near-falsetto vocal, the phasing in the background, the DIDDLE-DE-DEE bits between the verses. Maybe they're related.

Oh, man. Those rhythm guitars, the vocal arrangement, the bass, the tambourine, the cowbell buried in the mix.
A classic!
Thanks for that.
I'm going rogue with my next selection:

Interesting to hear a Donny song from an era I love that was new for me. It's very Stevie isn't it? Indeed it sounds more like Wonder than Hathaway. Whilst there are elements I like - the jazzy chords, funky clavinet (I think) - the track is little too schmalzy for me ( not a great lover of Christmas tracks generally) and doesn't quite work for me. Thanks though! Will post a track for someone a little later.

Next one's for Darkness Fish. From about 1970. Archie Fisher 'Orfeo' It's not as bad as Jimmy makes out, but it doesn't set the pulse racing either. It's too one note, this type of thing really lives and dies by the fire the musicians bring, the passion of the vocals, and this seems to lack any of that.
