Takin' the country boy out of the country...

We all live in a big ol' world
By Bryce Martin

Pop music was never more groovier than in 1969, and no song better exemplified that than the hippie anthem, "Aquarius." Let the sunshine in, by all means, yes. Kenny Johnson provided vocals for a Gary Paxton budget album in the works aimed for Alshire Records. Johnson's moon was in the seventh house and all was copasetic while he got through on such lines as "no more falsehoods or derisions," but the country in him was exposed when he got around to another song, "Yellow Submarine," which he sang as "yeller" submarine. I asked him about it and he straighforwardly replied, "I thought it was yeller."
