Albums and All That, Starting with the letter F as in Foxtrot, Part 2

Fairport Convention [00:47]
"Million Dollar Bash"
Fairport Chronicles
A&M SP-3530 1976
Fairport Convention plucking a little something from the Basement Tapes and giving it a fine dust off.
Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart [03:41]
"Girl I'm Out to Get You"
Family Portrait
A&M SP-19002 1967
Bubblegum Pop takes a dip into Chamber Pop? Maybe this is what happened when Boyce & Hart listened to Sgt Pepper and Their Satanic Majesties Request?
Bobbie Gentry [06:05]
"Rainmaker"
Fancy
Capitol Records ST-428 1970
A fine funky arrangement of this Harry Nilsson/Bill Martin song. The album made it to number 34 on the Hot Country Albums chart.
The Oak Ridge Boys [08:45]
"She's Gone to L.A. Again"
Fancy Free
MCA Records MCA-5209 1981
From the album that unleashed the song "Elvira" on an unsuspecting listening public.
Lightnin' Hopkins [12:40]
"Lightnin' Boogie"
Fast Life Woman
Verve Records V-8453 1962
Some excellent electric boogie from the Texas legend. Fun fact: Hopkins recorded an album in 1969 entitled Free Form Patterns in which he was backed by the 13th Floor Elevators rhythm section.
Frank Yankovic [15:29]
"Champagne Taste and a Beer Bankroll"
Favorite Polkas
ABC Records ABCD-873 1975

Feargal Sharkey [17:29]
"It's All Over Now"
Feargal Sharkey
A&M Records SP-6-5108 1985
Former Undertones frontman with his first solo outing. Couldn't resist picking this one. For interested parties, there is the album opens with a bit of she said/he said: Side 1 Track 1 is by Maria McKee about her relationship with Benmont Tench, and Side 1 Track 2 is by Benmont Tench but is purportedly not about Maria McKee.
Nina Hagen [21:40]
"What It Is"
Fearless
Columbia BFC 39214 1983
That's right, an RHCP song. And oddly it fits in the context of this album very well.
José Feliciano [27:30]
"Just a Little Bit of Rain"
Feliciano!

Could definitely use a little rain out here.
Deerhoof [30:20]
