I found this in my email this morning, courtesy of Musiciansfriend.com :

1967, in the Summer of Love with psychedelic the word of the day, the number-one song on the pop chart is "Something Stupid" by Nancy and Frank Sinatra … Janis Ian’s single "Society’s Child" languishes because of its controversial lyrics about an interracial relationship … that changes when conductor Leonard Bernstein features the song on his CBS-TV special about pop music … the record then climbs to #14 on the pop chart …

That was a cool way to start my morning.....something about Janis coming from an unexpected website!

Yay for Leonard Bernstein!

He knew good music when he heard it.
