Weirdly I heard The Man Who Sold The World at the supermarket this morning.
I was never a fan, especially after learning how many different versions of it were recorded before the album's release.
It was originally written for a woman he knew to sing. I had her album.
I never liked it until Mick Ronson started thinking about arranging stuff and made this.
Their playlist is immaculate! 😁
Tough one, I like that.

It's not the very first 45 I ever purchased (that would be I'm A Believer). But nearly 60 years on, and I still LOVE this.
And please note for all future reference: there should be no shaming in the Jukebox community.

TOKEN 1
Triangle by Thin White Rope
An atypical mellow track from these
This song has been posted already but not by this prestigious lineup.
Token 2
Johnny Cash and a whole bunch of other people: Will the CIRCLE be unbroken
Glad you thought of it.
Also, I love the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album of the same name.
I'm not an expert at all, but I believe he had a song writing credit or two and more than just a passing connection to the band. Beyond that I don't believe he was ever an actual member.
I remember hearing that Jackson Browne was a member in the 60s.
Anyway... the title track of the album:
Kitty shuffles through her 45s and offers up this.
