Damn. You figured 1964 based on the music and the Chuck Jackson, Jimmy Ruffin, Smokey Robinson, O.V. Wright and—oh, my—The Young Rascals—were all released in 1967? Freakin’ great detective work, dude!
The last song played on this aircheck “Lonely Too Long” was on the “Collections” album by the Young Rascals, and the album was released January 9, 1967. Could this ‘check be that recent? BTW, I knew that Sly Stone had been a DJ, and I thoroughly enjoyed this brief ‘check.
Yes. Ok you guys blasted me. I did hear all those songs as I tightened it up and simply typed the wrong number, set it to post and went outside to work for the day.
Tough crowd.
Also, “Gonna Give her all the Love I’ve Got” was from ’67. I looked that up on Wikipedia, as I did “Lonely Too Long”.
This aircheck is from early ’67. The Ruffin, Smokey, and Rascals were all early ’67 releases.

Typo. I should re read what gets posted before walking out of the studio. Be nice.
