#9: Donovan: "Mellow Yellow"

This was the year that Donovan Leitch put aside his Bob Dylan imitation and found his own voice. It turns out that the title did not come from the rumor that one could get high smoking the inside of banana peels, a rumor started by Country Joe MacDonald, possibly with the help of the United Fruit Company.

The "electrical banana" was a reference to a lady's vibrator. Catch the English film "Hysteria" for a comic and true tale of how that particular device was invented.
