I love "Catch the Wind" particularly. "Colours" and "Season of the Witch" are really good too.

I'm partial to "Please Don't Bend" on Sutras.

Donovan's interview on Fresh Air completely turned me against him.

"Isle of Islay" is really good though.

Weird. Oh

I'm partial to Superman Sunshine myself. Additionally, I'm grateful to him for teaching john lennon and paul mccartney how to travis pick.
The more arguments you win, the fewer friends you will have.

I'm not familiar with this... what happened?

The corpses all hang headless and limp bodies with no surprises and the blood drains down like devil's rain we'll bathe tonight I want your skulls I need your skulls I want your skulls I need your skulls Demon I am and face I peel to see your skin turned inside out, 'cause gotta have you on my wall gotta have you on my wall, 'cause I want your skulls I need your skulls I want your skulls I need your skulls collect the heads of little girls and put 'em on my wall hack the heads off little girls and put 'em on my wall I want your skulls I need your skulls I want your skulls I need your skulls

My favorite Donovan moment is in the Bob Dylan documentary "Don't Look Back", when Dylan and Donovan are introduced to each other and Donovan plays "To Sing For You" while Bob looks at him like something that he just stepped in.  Poor little Donovan, he so wanted to be liked.

Still, I get chills at the end of "The Limey", when Terence Stamp sings "Colours" in the old film clip.
