Traveling Wilburys - Handle With Care
This group was wonderful during its short swing through our space-time. What a great pleasure it is to hear Roy Orbison's smooth voice and range on this one -- "I'm so tired of being lonely. I still have some love to give. Won't you show me that you really care?" Perfect Orbison lyrics. But really they all are great. Orbison, George Harrison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne. Talk about a supergroup!

High Heeled Sneakers -- Rolling Stones -- Leon Russell
"Put on your high heel sneakers. Wear your wig hat on your head."
This song was written and originally performed by Robert Higginbotham using the performance name Tommy Tucker in 1963-64, and went to number one on the Cash Box R&B Locations chart and number eleven on the Billboard Hot 100. The Rolling Stones recorded it for BBC in 1964. I couldn't find it in the album discography for the early Stones.
Leon Russell performed it on the TV show Shindig in 1964.
