Friday on my Mind 142: Gong With The Luminous Nose
Posted in 1960s, Friday On My Mind, Music at 11:00 on 16 December 2016
Les Fleur de Lys1 were the band called upon to record my favourite 60s song, Reflections of Charles Brown, and its B-side, Hold On under the name Rupert’s People.
I naturally assumed this song is a reference/tribute to the Edward Lear poem The Dong With A Luminous Nose. I was therefore amused when on Sounds of the Sixties 26/11/16 it was introduced and listed as “Going with the Luminous Nose.”
It sounds like psychedelia to me.
Les Fleur De Lys: Gong With The Luminous Nose.
1To be correct French shouldn’t that be Les Fleurs de Lys?
