...the Sunday before, there was a 60s music special on PBS.
More than one episode, back to back. 60s band playing together 50 or so years later.
The Association was one of the bands. Naturally, this is one of the sings they performed.
The vocals sounded very good. There were a bunch of old dudes up there singing. 5 or 6.
I think some of them were original members, but the parts they played were being done by younger, better players.
The live audience was mid 50s on up.
I'm not sure what year it was filmed, but The Association got a big chunk of one of the episodes.

The Association was a "safe" rock band. But they were also good musicians, who wrote good songs. marble falls Mar 2025 #4
