Those are some great music clips especially the Dick Campbell and the other two that channel Dylan. When you said Dylan imitators I was thinking of the first David Blue record. But he grew out of it. Anyway as soon as I saw this was about PF Sloan I figured you'd start off with "Where were you when I needed you" by The Grass Roots which was one of the first 45's I bought. I seem to remember that the first version of the song had Sloan himself, or maybe Barri singing. Anyway I have had all the Sloan records you posted but I think I only have Twelve More Times at this moment. This was really fun to read.
Thanks, Alan. My look at P.F. Sloan was a lot of fun to write, too. I was saving "Where Were You When I Needed You" for an eventual dive into the Grass Roots and their convoluted early history. There were actually three versions of the song and the first rendition was indeed sung by Sloan.
