Friday On My Mind 65: Games People Play
Posted in 1960s, Friday On My Mind, Music at 13:00 on 10 February 2012
This is one of those sixties songs that you never hear much nowadays.
I suppose it was a protest song, of sorts.
South also wrote Walk A Mile In My Shoes which was a hit for Elvis in 1970.
Another of his songs was Hush which I remember Deep Purple released as their first single.
South’s website is here. If you click on the link it belts out Games People Play very loudly.
