“Riki Tiki Tavi” #55 9/26/1970

The first single from Donovan in four years to miss the Top 40. He’d decided to step away from being the featured performer, and became part of a group called Open Road. He’d also decided to move back to the UK despite exorbitant taxes. This song was adapted from the name of a mongoose in Rudyard Kipling’s “The Jungle Book.”
