Friday Funtime: First of May

It's International Workers' Day, but yours truly was unfortunately not at all laborious today and couldn't pull together the May Day set of celebrations of workers that he'd intended to post today. So make do with Dylan's ever relevant take on "Maggie's Farm," and enjoy this forgotten minor hit from the Bee Gees' early days. I'll try to be more on top of my game next week.

L&Gs, "First of May." (That's a live clip; here's the full studio version.)

(PS: "The apple tree / That grew for you and me" may be among the decade's 10 worst lines.)

Definitely one for the "non-Xmas songs that mention Xmas" list. Dig that red velvet LP cover!
