The interview took place in the fun-fur Conversation Pit Of Sound© here in the gold-plated F.M.F.© Airstream trailer H.Q. while Kreemé [pronounced kree-MAY - Ed.] served her signature root beer 'n succotash smoothies.
FMF© Hey, Annette - I gotta say - gee - you were one homely kid!
AF Uh ...
FMF© Who'da thunk, you know, you'd of turned into this paradigm of pulchritude with tits out th' ass?
AF Tits out th' ass? Excuse me?
FMF© It's an expression. Means, double-D Dagmars.
AF (testily) Can we start the game?
FMF© Yeesh! Lighten up, sweetheart! Hey - I hope it's not your period HAW HAW! Okay, Annette Funicello - are you ready to give th' Four Or Five Guys© a peek in your box? I see you have it with you.
AF A girl is never without her Magic Box, Farq!
FMF© Okayyyy Annette - let's play - whoooo's - in your box! (Wurlitzer)
How to play? Why, the rules is simples! Simply download the musical track from the comments, and using your skill and judgement - what's left of it at your age - tell us Who's In Annette's Box!
This post made possible through the largesse of Tremolo, who is therefore ineligible to participate. Tough beans, Trem!
Get a peek in Annette's Box here!
ReplyDeleteAnd don't forget! There's a 7.031 FoamPoint™ Bonus for the lucky winner!
Not you, Trem, old buddy - you slipped me the disc!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard that song but I think I smell a skunk as in a doobie, brother!
ReplyDeleteI derailed completely before I tried to jump on her caboose!
DeleteAbout the box...hey, Annette...that kitty cat ain't got no teeth!
Mr. Baxter is absent from the proceedings.
DeleteThis is probably the toughest yet. I'll give some clues if nobody's got it by tomorrow.
I'm gonna be like my sorta fellow country men and vigorously wave the white flag immediately...
ReplyDeleteNow, having actually listened to the thing, I of course have no freakin' clue (comme d'habitude, quoi) but very nice. I can also see where the Skunk guess comes from as it does sound a bit like early Dan, doesn't it, though messieurs Fagen & Becker might've not allowed the mild hooliganry during the coda...
ReplyDeleteOkay - early wit' a clue (seein' as how youse joiks ain't got one ...)
ReplyDelete1971.
Scientology.
So that's two clues awready.
John Travolta?!?
DeleteYESSSS!!!!!! He's a Scientologist. But no, he didn't make this record.
DeleteThis really sounds familiar, but not unlike Annette's box: I can't put my finger on it.
ReplyDelete1971? Scientology? Hmmmmmmm........
Please tell me this isn't old L Ron?!?
ReplyDeleteThis isn't old L Ron.
Deleteis it Stephen Stills?
ReplyDeleteI like this reply for a number of reasons, but mainly because it's wrong.
Delete"The Road" ?
ReplyDeleteHermann wins this week's Who's In My Box?! [APPLAUSE - WURLITZER THEME]
Delete... ever used "Fingerprint" in VLC ?
Deletebut i was not shure because i couldn't confirm it with YT.
Okay, it's not him either, but this seems to be as good a place as any, seeing how some of you have some rare treasures that I can't get my hands on:
ReplyDeleteDoes any of the four or five guys have Michael Murphy's 1973 albums, "Cosmic Cowboy Souvenir" and his self-titled album for Epic?
I've been looking for these for a while now. I'm not sure the latter was ever issued on CD and the former is long out of print.
(By the way, if this kind of request is out of line, Farq, just delete it..)
On with your search, then. I even searched for known Scientologist musicians but came up empty. Farq's box game are just not for me...
I don't have the self-titled album, but here's the expanded
Deleteversion of CCS:

Requests encouraged.
DeleteO.K., here's one!:
DeleteI want one of the upcoming "BOX" things delivered to my door, and it needs to be filled with 5 lbs. of money. (NO, I am NOT "requesting" an old '5Ts Xmas novelty ditty...)(NO, I am NOT "referring" to anything by "The Old Philosopher"...)(Eddie Lawrence)
- B.(een quaranteened too long...)(NOT long enough for a '6Ts Teensploitation movie marathon, thankfully...)
("Never give up, never give up, never give up!!!")
Oh, hey, thanks, Crabdevil.
DeleteHalf a haul is still quite a haul. Murpheys self-titled is one of those "worst of both worlds" cases. It is one of the least known and acclaimed (no hits) record by a major artist. So while everyone is jumping on unknown smaller acts, self-pressed records etc. for new discoveries, this kind of record doesn't get anything.
"So while everyone is jumping on unknown smaller acts, self-pressed records etc. for new discoveries, this kind of record doesn't get anything."
DeleteSure sounds like (OK., is exactly like) my love life.
David Pomeranz?
ReplyDeleteScientology Hubbard...not by any chance Ray Wylie Hubbard? Just aname I dug up from somewhere.....
ReplyDeleteIt seems he was in a band called 3 Faces West who issued an LP in 1971.....My best shot.
DeleteIs it Leif Garrett and The Electro-Psycho-Meters?
ReplyDeleteThis is, as Hermann quietly suggested up there, The Road, with "Cognition", their ambitious and justifiably rare double album on Kama Sutra. I'll upload it later, when I've treated my Thetan infestation.
ReplyDeleteKudos and those valuable bonus FoamPoints™ to Hermann!
Dang me. And just when I was about to venture my guess.
ReplyDeleteTom & the Cruisers.
Hit & a miss? Missile gone rogue??? Missive gone bananas?
What'a I know. I'll have to forgo doing my usual jumping on Oprah's couch celebratory move.
(Hey, it sure wasn't gonna be Kirstie & the Alley Kats...)
I think I had my first woody when I saw Annette on TV. I remember that touch football and relevio ended at 4 when her show came on. We all ran home to watch her sweater and her headlights. I remember woodies as being a good thing.
ReplyDeleteThe great thing about a woodie was you could get a couple of dames to sit on it with a surfboard, and show it off on the beach!
DeleteWoody...(would ye?)
DeleteEradicate millions of Thetans with every play!
ReplyDeleteIn that case, you're sure to hate...

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Your mileage may vary.
Lead track?:
A1 - "Reach"
Oh, Uncle B, don't you know that that record and it's fabulous cover have already been FoamFeatured (and forced me down a Youtube rabbit hole which means that I now have four hours of freakin' Orleans instead of the previous three minutes and a half).
ReplyDeleteAnd the naked group huddle there at least didn't involve a spaceship!
In space, no one can hear you scream
ReplyDeleteIf a naked '70s group falls over in a forest, and no one hears it, doesn't that earn it a place on FMF ?
ReplyDelete- UncleB né B.B.
Is it wrong that I want to be her monkey's uncle?
