You might figure it out sooner, but some people have to wait until the very end to see it, ok maybe not the very end, but you have to see more than a few seconds.

Thanks for thinking of me but I knew what it must be before following your link! It's good but maybe he overdoes the theatricals a bit. Of course it is a bit of a rip off of the great rock artist Denny Dent who started doing this years ago. Check out his Hendrix art which is featured at the beginniong of the Monterey video.

Sad that he passed away too soon four years ago just before his 56th birthday.

How about the original...

I saw Denny Dent do this in a Hendrix video/documentary that my parents gave to me for my birthday years ago. I was dumbfounded by it. I thought that this was cool because he did a little twist by painting it upside down.

PS: I'm still waiting for some recommendations for some music by Donovan that I should check out. Having never even heard of Donovan, I have no idea on where one would start. Apparently he showed up in a documentary about Dylan that my wife was watching so that bumps him up a notch or two in my book.

Look up "Mellow Yellow."

He had some good stuff but IMHO is (was) a second rate musician.

I agree with Blooz. Donovan did have some good music.

Some of my favorites:

Atlantis

Sunshine Superman

Colours

Hurdy Gurdy Man

Catch The Wind

Season Of The Witch

[Yoyodyne ArtWorks]

Regardless of what one thinks of his songs, I've always considered him a talented acoustic guitar player.

Thank you for the recommendations. I'll see if I can pick up any of these tracks on eMusic or Amazon.

This one seems to have most of the recommended tracks, but it is live:

They don't write them like this any more!

I was impressed like everyone
When man began to fly
Out of earthly regions
To planets in the sky
With total media coverage
We watched the heros land
As ceremoniously
They disturbed the cosmic sand

In awe with admiration
We listened to the talk
Such pride felt they
Such joy to be
Upon the moon to walk
My romantic vision shattered
When it was explained to me
Spacemen wear old diapers
In which they shit and pee

Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to there
Relieve you and believe me
Without a worry or care
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to mars

They don't partake like you and i
Of beefy burger mush
Their food is specially prepared
To dissolve into slush
Absorbed by multi-fibers
In the super diaper suit
Otherwise the slush would trickle
Down inside the boot

Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to there
Relieve you and believe me
Without a worry or care
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to mars

You may well ask now what becomes
Of liquid they consume
A pipe is led from penis head
To a unit in the room
The water is recirculated
Filtered for re-use
In case of anti-gravity -
Pee gets on the loose

Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to there
Relieve you and believe me
Without a worry or care
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to mars

Wherever man has conquered
On the quest for frontiers new
(Da da da da)
I'm glad that he's always had to do
The number one and two
It makes it all so ordinary
Just like you and me
To know the greatest heroes
They had to shit and pee

The intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to there
For cosmic constipation
There's none that can compare
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
The intergalactic laxative
The intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to mars
