Though it could also be a term for Romney’s campaign, this weekend’s theme of “At the Zoo” is for songs about animals of all kinds…except political animals, we see far too much of them and their “droppings”.
So whether you were a fan of The Monkees, The Animals or The Boomtown Rats, songs by groups named after animals or about animals are welcome to join this weekend’s musical menagerie.
At The Zoo – Simon and Garfunkle
Bungle in the Jungle – Jethro Tull
Monkey Man – Rolling Stones
Sheep – Pink Floyd
A Horse With No Name – America
Free As A Bird – The Beatles

Breezing through – “rush week” for me. But here’s a cover of the Dylan song, Man Gave Names to All the Animals that I’m pretty sure has not yet been posted…..Tim O’Brien’s version (which is GREAT)
Hope to re-emerge on Thursday. Be safe, Planetarians!
EDIT – Oops! Maybe cannot see?? Sorry!
Mama told me not to come – Three Dog Night
