Hello pals! Welcome to week 102 of #lexieschain - the final chain of 2012. So lets see wot we gots dis week.Last week we had The Mamas & The Papas with Dedicated to the one I love. Cass Elliot of the M&P's died in 1974 in the bedroom of a flat at 9 Curzon Place in London. Bizarrely Keith Moon of The Who also died in this very room 4 years later! The property was owned by singer Harry Nilsson. I think Harry Nilsson was probably dedicating his version of "Without You" to they one he loved because in it he sings that he "can't live if living is without you". So my link this week is Harry Nilsson and "Without You". (Ed Lexie: Thanks for makin mum blub!!)

The linky to follow iz “Dedicated to the one I love” by the Mamas & the Papas. The linky I am choosin iz dedicated to those who lost their lives at the Hillsborough football disaster. It also follow the family theme – mama – papa – bruvver. This is the last lexieschain linky of 2012 and my linky is the last no 1 record of 2012. So my linky be The Justice Collective’s Hillsborough Tribute “He Ain’t Heavy He’s my Brother”. (Ed Lexie: Thanks for makin mum blub again!!)

Last week Patch chose a song by the Mamas and the Papas. Their most famous song is probably California Dreamin which is about walking on a cold winter's day in London and wishing they were back home where it is sunny and warm. We sympathise with that as the rain hammers down outside our window and so we choose another song about being back in California. This one is Back to California by Carol King.

Well done Patchy paws with your Christmas pressie lexieschain win. Today, I looked outside for inspawration fir my linky and shock horror it was sunny. Before I could reach for my sunshades the linky was as obvious as Boris Johnson's ping pong prowess.

The Mamas and The Papas were managed and produced by Lou Adler. Lou Adler did a beautiful rendition on the harmonica of the Gerschwin classic "Summertime". This song was also a hit for the lovely Janis Joplin and it is her version that shall be my linky. The Mamas and The Papas wrote their song "Pearl" as a tribute to Joplin after her tragic death.
