*We'll play a song from 1967, which is actually the story of how this west coast group met and formed.  The title never shows up in the lyrics, but is a reference to a club on a road of the same name in the Virgin Islands, where the 4 members came together in 1965.  Name the group and extra credit for the name of the track...
 
*In 2005 this exceptional artist released a most excellent album and then the wait began.  After 7 years. her fans were more than ready for some new music..  And what they received was one of her best sounding albums full of music that expanded her lower vocal range without sacrificing any of her higher register.  And then...add her guitar.  Name the artist...
 
*This rock & roll legend began his career as an in-demand session musician, playing with many excellent L.A. bands back in the 60's.  A self-titled debut album in 1970 got his solo career launched.  Name the artist...
 
*While a member of a band that formed in New York in 1964, this artist wrote a song we'll enjoy tonight that is a surreal view on the life of a rock star.  Originally writing it for the band he was in, it was eventually recorded and released on that band's last album in 1970, but didn't get much traction as the band were not really commercially viable.  The writer released his own version of it in 1974 and it was huge for him.  Name the artist and extra credit for the name of the track...
