I was surprised to hear Foreigner's "Double Vision" while grocery shopping today. I thought, "In this store, it's unusual to hear uptempo rock. What will they segue with this?"
As "Double Vision" faded out, "Walk Right In" by The Rooftop Singers began.
Talk about a wide 15-year chasm; the language and attitudes of 1963 were far different from those of 1978. I don't think there's a radio station, even a noncommercial one, in the world that would ever pair those two songs. Arena rock for air guitar seldom dovetails into early '60s folk with mild, of-its-time slang on anyone's playlist.
