A #1 ode to street buskers by a one-hit wonder, the Lemon Pipers. They were from a college town (Oxford, Ohio) and once lost a statewide battle of the bands to the James Gang. The group was pushed into making bubblegum records by their label, and didn’t really care for this tune. Lead guitarist Bill Bartlett went on to be part of another one-hit wonder in the 70’s as Ram Jam with “Black Betty.”
