My fave is the song by The Hollywood Persuaders.

No I'm not sure actually.  I was debating that one but only got Nicki's valuable feedback and she already knows that one, so I wasn't sure which one resonated with everyone else. 

Screw it.  Go ahead and put up The Hollywood Persuaders then.

I know it's easy to miss and it doesn't help that I'm invisible, so here's a repost.  

Please put up The Hollywood Persuaders for my vote.  Thumbs Up

Well, we're almost arrived, I think we miss the nomination of Micky and ...? Who knows? I hope they give it to me before night (here in Italy we are 8 hours early!)

The real genius behind these tracks was producer Ian "Molly" Meldrum, a person known to pretty much all Australians. "The Real Thing" is the debut single for Russell Morris, and was written by Johnny Young as a slow acoustic ballad, but radically transformed by Meldrum into the heavily-produced studio masterpiece that became an Australian rock classic. The single cost about as much to produce as an entire album at the time, making it the most expensive single then recorded in Australia. "Part Three into Paper Walls", written by Johnny Young and Russell Morris, also reached number one in the charts, making Morris the first Australian artist to score consecutive number ones with their first two singles.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I elect "Russell Morris - The Real Thing (1969)" as my entry in the poll. Although I prefer "Part Three into Paper Walls", that is more for personal reasons and recognise "The Real Thing" as the track with the greatest appeal, especially to prog fans.

I reminded Micky that his nomination is still missing. Anyway, here on the East Coast we're only 6 hours ahead of Italy, not 8. That would be Mountain TimeWink. If PA's server is located in Quebec, it's the same time as ours.

Waiting for micky, I suggest you to take time to vote until monday night and open the next poll on tuesday. 

By the way, who opens it? I think it was Logan's turn, but I need to check it on our Interactive poll team thread.

  This is very much a sentimental favourite of mine.  But you know my process won't allow me to vote for it in this poll.  That being said, I did think of concentrating on early 60's, but also have a lot of love for psych (was at one time, the psych buyer for a record store) and wanted to introduce some lesser-known psych to this group.

You're right. Too little time. I'd say give us until Thursday night to vote, and open the next poll on Friday.

I think most of us know a few songs on this list. I already only knew the songs by Love, Fairport Convention and Stooges.

I may not vote for it because there's so much other good stuff that fits my standard tastes better - but I definitely like this and it was my number one out of yours!
