Dali had worked on a few film projects; he had co-written the film named above, but it was directed by Luis Bunuel. This is still a great song after all these years. |

Bob Marley followed by James Brown followed by David Bowie and John Lennon together. That's a playlist!

This whole album was mind blowing in my opinion. It was really smooth and I still think it's quite sophisticated. I take the album as a whole when I listen to this album.

Bit of trivia: With this record, David Bowie was one of the few white artists to appear on Soul Train. .

The falsetto answering "Fame" is Lennon. He also contributed mightily to Across the Universe by writing it. Eveland wrote:
