<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 115%; text-align: center;">Vardø (or “Wolf Island” in old Norse-speak), is a
small arctic town arguably most notorious for its gruesome witch trials during
the 1700’s at Vardøhus Fortess, and was also recognized as one of the places
that the judicious and holier-than-thou sages stated was the location of one of
the 7 gateways to Hell on Earth. This Nordic equivalent of Salem, MA is the
Easternmost town in Europe (its farther East than Istanbul and St. Petersburg) and
is along with Hammerfest the oldest city in Northern Norway (they both received
city-status in 1789).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 115%;">The city, which is the oldest known fishing-harbor in Finnmark
county (the largest, Northern-most and least populated county of Norway), and
which today consists of approximately 2000 inhabitants over a relatively small,
seemingly sleepy, desolated area, is hardly a place any outsider would consider
being a cultural breeding ground with a rich cultural heritage dating back for
at least a dozen of centuries. Nevertheless, it was (and still is); and as
listeners are about to discover; - 60’s rock’n’roll was a part of that hotbed. But
before the mop-top-sound invaded that particularly cold corner of the Earth,
the only music you had to go by was the standard accordion-based pre-war dance-songs,
which seemed to be omnipresent in just about every settlement along the Northern
coast at the many diverse gatherings.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 115%;">With cultural mainstays and media primarily
concentrated and thriving in the big cities in the Southern part of Norway, a
cultural divide up to the still war-ravaged, remote and hard-to-reach Northern areas
was a reality. Northerners were also branded as rough-hewn, foul-mouthed
counterparts as opposed to their more “refined” Southern cousins. Nonetheless, as was usual for a sea-faring
nation, locals having been abroad returned home with the strangest-sounding
records from all over the globe, presenting the ever-curious youth living in small
and isolated areas to the shape of things to come. Suddenly something started
to stir in the midst of the post-war generation. And Vardø-teens were certainly
not an exception to that rule.</span></span></div>

seemed to be about to take off after having attained a renowned standing after years

the main vocals: “<b>Not My Girl</b>” and “<b>Love Is Gone</b>” for example, are both Finn’s
laments over losing his girlfriend to his band-mate Ronald.), but also because
all four members were talented singers as well as gifted and also (especially
in Bjørnar’s and Ronald’s case); experienced musicians, and good at doing
harmony; which by the time they recorded their sole 45 in September 1967, had reached
the peak of perfection.</span></div>

chaotic gig in Honningsvåg in 1966, where a frenzied, rock’n’roll-famished audience went totally “Zaksmania” on the group after a few numbers, climbing the stage
and clawing up their clothes.

The main goal of this particular tour of course, was to finally get to record their own 45 in a professional studio. Having played their last show of the downwards trip in Mosjøen, they travelled further on to Grong in Middle Norway, where <b>Svein “Løva” Andresen</b> debarked from the bus and travelled ahead by train to Oslo to meet up with his girlfriend (and later his wife) <b>Tove Kristine Eriksen</b>, while the rest of the entourage followed behind in the van. <b>Tove Kristine</b> had already proceeded down to Oslo in advance, due to concert-obligations.</span></span><br />

considered as <b>The Zaks</b>’ fifth member. Already a fairly successful
recording-artist by the age of 17 (she recorded three 45’s in the span from
1967 to 1969 under the moniker <b>Tove Kristine</b> on Polydor). Her first 45 “<b>One
Little Voice</b>”, received fairly good attention, and even earned her a stint on
National Television. The band toured with; and shared the bill with her on
numerous occasions on the arctic soil, before this longer spell in Drammen and the
capitol of Oslo. <o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

label-mogul <b>Arne Bendiksen</b> about recording her 2nd 45 that year for Polydor,
and negotiated an agreement with Bendiksen about having <b>The Zaks</b> backing her up
on her 45, and also managed to stipulate a condition in the contract that <b>The
Zaks</b> would be able to record and release their own 45 as a good-will-gesture.</span></span><br />

during their travels (like the afore-mentioned <b>The Firebeats Inc.</b>), forming
companionships, sharing experiences and tricks of the trade along the way. They
also crossed paths with possibly the most well-known and biggest 60’s band in
Norway, <b>The Vanguards</b> from Bærum. When supporting <b>The Vanguards</b> on an outdoor
concert in Sylling outside Drammen; <b>The Zaks</b>, having left behind their somewhat
meager PA at the Casino Bar in Drammen, asked if they could borrow the hugely
successful and more expertly equipped colleagues PA, something their friendly
rivals said yes to. During the concert, finding themselves plugged into a high-end
mixing-board and finally getting the sound suitable and deserving of their
choral and instrumental talents; <b>The Zaks</b> proceeded to blow their famous competition
totally away. After <b>The Zaks</b> had finished their set, <b>The Vanguards</b> were intimidated
off the stage after a few numbers because of the public’s incessant demands of
getting <b>The Zaks</b> back on again. <b>The Vanguards</b>, chagrined by this humiliation;
bluntly refused <b>The Zaks</b> to borrow the board any further; and grabbed it with
them when they left. This was quickly alleviated when a couple of <b>Zaks</b>-fans
drove over to the Casino Bar and fetched <b>The Zaks</b>’ own board so they could
continue playing after a small hiatus, much to the attendants’ satisfaction. <span style="color: #0070c0;"> </span>A similar incident
had also occurred earlier in Vardø in 1966, when <b>The Pussycats</b> were jeered at
and bombarded with yellings of “We Want The <b>Zaks</b>!” much to the hugely popular
band’s bewilderment, who had absolutely no idea who or what the locals was
yelling about.</span></span><br />

being done. Van Baelen quickly saw a photo-opportunity by posing the members in

sudden stalled in the middle of a railway crossing, the shook-up youngsters took
it to a repair-shop, where they among other things were warned about a
much-needed engine-repair, and that the vehicle would not be able to pass
through a traffic-control in its current shape without losing its license
plates. Because of sparse funds and the relatively high cost for the repairs, the
band decided to take their chances on an easier route through Sweden via
European route E45 on their way home to Northern Norway by night, to avoid the
possibility of running into a traffic-control by day.</span></span></div>

about the future, as well as discussions about a change of direction in musical
styles had been prevalent amid the members’ for some time. After crossing the
border, these ghosts from the past and discussions about future radio and
TV-appearances were swiftly silenced, when their steadfast companion over the
years, the “<b>Zaks</b>-mobile”, suddenly grinded to a halt near Orsa in Sweden. The earlier
rash decision regarding crucial maintenance which had been waived off as a redundant
extravagance, had now curved back on the group with a vengeance, and escalated
into a full-blown disaster. The engine was now completely dead, and had to be
replaced. Needless to say, the prize for replacing the whole motor was
substantially higher than the previously mentioned un-heeded repairs. Consequently, the members had no other option
than to phone back home to their parents for funds. When the car was deemed road-worthy
again, the group continued their homewards journey in relative silence. Subsequently,
after their arrival, they all decided to spend some time apart, to weigh their
options and gather back their wits.</span></span><br />

on the floor into a Tandberg tape-recorder at their main rehearsal-place, the
chapel at Havly Hostel, and further on in Vardø school gymnasium when the
foreman of the parish wasn’t too happy about the rather unrefined

upon a 7th or 8th –generation cassette-tape while doing research for
a TV-series about the history of Norwegian Rock. The tape consisted of 17
incredibly raw’n’rough-sounding demos; sounding like an unholy crossbreed
between <b>The Kinks</b>, <b>The Searchers</b> et al, but possessing a more brutal, US-sounding
tinge to it than the usual Mersey-like squeaks adopted by their regional and
national ilk; and with so deteriorated sound-quality that it could easily have
been mistaken for being recorded in the same desolate café in Texas where <b>Randy Alvey And The
Green Fuz</b> recorded their seminal 45.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 115%;">The material on the tape hailed from the then late and
venerated music-journalist <b>Arve Strømsæther</b>, which at an earlier point had
acquired the immense archives of the now also late <b>Svein Erik Børja</b>. Olsen then
in turn delivered the tape over to No. 1 Zaks-devotee and close friend of the
band, <b>Yngve Antonesen</b>. This tape was then returned back up North, much to the band-members
astonishment. The tape was then digitally transferred and released in a limited
quantity of only 300 signed CD’s and unleashed on the unsuspecting locals and
the country’s collector-milieu in 2009.</span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 115%;">For a country with such a small and widespread
population as Norway, almost every town or hamlet of the decade seemed to have one
or more bands lurking about in the shadows. To cite <b>Ronald Pedersen</b>’s own
words; they crossed paths with and witnessed a lot of really great local bands
across the country that never made it, because of the then rampant monopoly
that was enforced by the bigger labels and their owners, who was only interested
in making money and keeping the sounds “nice and clean” and at a status quo. As
a result, it was very hard to get a record-deal when straying from this
template. <b>Finn Pedersen</b> also said that in hindsight, the missed opportunity to
take a trip through the Mid-Norwegian Trøndelag-counties during their journeys
was a huge mistake, as the sounds there were hard and tough (<b>The Firestones</b>,
<b>The Missing Links</b>, <b>The Zealotical Exceptions</b>, etc.), and could have been an easier
way for<b> The Zaks</b> to get a permanent foot “inside the door”.</span></span></div>

<b>Zaks</b>-material out there somewhere, with more professional- sounding and louder
production of original tunes recorded by Saastad shortly before his departure
in early 1967.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I was highly educated in electronics in the Norvegian airforce. When I came to Vardø in April 1966 I was 19 and a half years old. I was a radar specialist on Marconi Early Warning systems. The big radars that Nato used to observe the airspace from Turkey to the Russian border. I had been headhunted by the Americans that had an operation in Vardø. It was obligatory to work 2 years maintaining the radars as a payback.
<br />
<br />
After 6 months I moved from Vardø to Honningsvåg, the island where the Nortcape is - a 24 hour one way trip with the old "Hurtigruten - coastal ferry."<br />
<br />
I used my summer and christmas holidays to make the recordings, traveling 2 times up and down the coast. I bought the newest, and most expensive Tandberg 4 track reel to reel tape recorder with sound on sound system. I also bought some Goodman hi-fi speakers for the voices in particular. On the speakers you could tune directly to get more or less crispy sounds. I had done a lot of research on how to place microphones - acoustic angles and so forth.<br /><br />
Each song on the tape was treated differently. The fantasy by <b>Tage Weie</b> that a microphone was lying on the floor as if on accident is just bullshit, and it was not in mono. (Editors note: The professionally cut safety copy from 1979 of the "lost tape" from 1966 that was used for the mastering of <b>The Zaks</b> LP came with a full "mono" sound. </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 115%;"><b>Bjørn Saastad</b>'s above photos from the "lost tapes" recording session proof that there were indeed several microphones used for the recording of the tape.)</span><br />

We've recorded 3 tunes per day. The tape was sent on January 22. 1967 to <b>Svein Erik Børja</b>. I tried to call him on February 15. 1967, but no reponse. I wrote a letter to <b>The Zaks</b> on March 20. 1967 where I told them that I was fed up, mostly because of lending them some money that never came back. Inside the envelope with the tape I've put return stamps, and emphasized that it was of the utmost importance that the tape was sent back if there was no interest.<br />
<br />
Just to be mentioned as one little helper on the way, is not true to the history. Without my money, my equipment, and enthousiasm an involvement I'd say nothing would been happening.<br />
<br />
And at last: The tape was mine - I've paid for it - I owned it - it was my property - there were never a question about this. I am of course happy of the destiny of the recordings, but some truth of what actually happened might now come to the surface.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">Well I guess it all started with seeing
<b>Elvis Presley</b> on <b>Ed Sullivan</b>’s Show in the 50s. I thought ’Oh boy,
what a great thing to do, sing and play the guitar!’ I was only 9 years old. My
parents bought me a cheap Sears and Roebuck guitar. I said to them, ’I don’t
know how to play this guitar’ and that I needed someone to teach me. So they
found me a guitar teacher named Joe. He had traveled during the war playing
guitar, I think in France, when he was in World War I. He was a great teacher
and in all honesty I did not do that great at sight reading music, but my
parents told him to keep teaching me anyway because I enjoyed it. So he gave me
lessons in the back of a record store, in Grand Rapids, Michigan. And as time
passed my mother and father hit it off with Joe and they would go after my
lesson and tip a few at the Old Riley Bar across the street. I don’t know if my
music drove them to drinking a lot of beer or not. Meantime as I am learning to
play the guitar the only audience I could find was my dog named Susie. She was a
black and tan dachshund. Anyway Susie never complained about my playing, she
just sat there and watched. So I figured if she liked me maybe someone else
would too.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">One day I heard there was a band called <b>Bob And The
Rockbillies</b> coming to the music store I took lessons at to promote their new
release <b>Baby Why Did You Have To Go</b> on the Blue-Chip label in 1958. Well
to say the least I was really impressed that they made records! Of course I
asked for their autograph, and explained to them that I was just learning to
play the guitar. They had a lead guitar player named Jim who said he would come
to my home and work with me. Well he did come to my home. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">My parents really took
a liking to him too. He taught me some chords, and different strums. Of course I
thought he was </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">fantastic! Being young I was </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">very impressionable.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">So as time
passed Joe talked my parents into getting me another guitar. I have a picture of
me in my bedroom with my guitar when I was very young. Anyway, by then we had
moved from Grand Rapids, Michigan to the Thornapple River by Ada, Michigan. I
started writing about the catfish in the river, and all sorts of crazy things
that really didn’t make a whole lot of sense. By then my Grandmother Ann and
Grandfather Raymond, of course Hummel, had moved on the river just down from
where we lived. My Uncle <b>Jim Hummel</b> lived with them too, and he was a big
folk music fan. Uncle Jim stood 6 foot 3 and looked like a giant to me! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">Well anyway we started singing songs together by </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">the </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Kingston</b><b style="font-family: Arial;"> Trio</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">, </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Peter, Paul </b><b style="font-family: Arial;">and Mary</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">, and </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">The Limeliters</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">, songs like </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Michael Row The Boat Ashore</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;"> and </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Where Have All the Flowers Gone</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">. Uncle Jim had a deeper voice and I of course carried the high notes. We were buddies back then, and Jim had his black Jaguar XKE, 12 cylinders! I never had seen such a large engine. My parents spoiled me with a 1961 Corvette convertible in candy apple red, with black and white competition stripes when I turned 15 and a half. I was definitely spoiled. The girls in high school really liked my car and I really liked them, so it was a great combination.</span><br />

Shoemaker</b> and we began to practice folk music. I believe back then by this
time I had a Goya nylon six string guitar that I used. We would practice
practically anywhere. There was a deserted ski hill that had a small building on
top of it where we could go inside and the acoustics were great for practicing
and also the view was awesome. I believe it was there that I first started
writing <b>Gentle Rain</b>. I remember how excited I would get when I sang the
song, and other music as far as that goes. I walked into the song and lived

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">I have to say singing is what keeps me going. If I had my choice
between millions of dollars, and singing, I would take singing. I thank God
everyday that I can still do it even at the age I am at NOW! I don’t know how to
explain it, but I can sing 5 or 6 hours and not realize the time has passed.
That’s true love and passion. It’s real, I can’t explain it. So when you hear me
sing it is truly from the heart. Maybe you have felt that passion, that burning
desire for something. Getting back to Phil and I and our little folk music duo,
I played guitar and Phil played the gut bucket, which is a wash tub with a broom
handle and piece of rope that is attached, and when you pull on the handle it
causes a bass sound. The tighter you pull on the rope, the higher the tone. I
personally loved <b>Peter, Paul and Mary</b>, <b>The Kingston Trio</b>, <b>Bob
Dylan</b>, etc. One day we were practicing in the parking lot of a restaurant,
and it happened that Rod Shepard from <b>The Ju Jus</b> heard me singing, and
wanted to know if I would like to come to one of <b>The Ju Jus</b> practices and
sing. At the time I met him <b>The Ju Jus</b> were playing only instrumental
music, and I guess they thought that a lead singer would help.</span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Originally
<b>The Ju Jus</b> was just Max, Bill and Rod. There exists an unreleased live
recording of them playing <b>Beatles</b> instrumental cover tunes at a Godwin
High School dance. Of course a short time later I joined them in 1964 to make
the fourth Ju Ju.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">Max’s little brother could not call him Junior so
he called him JuJu, so that’s the way that I understand they got the name </span><b style="color: black; font-family: Arial;">The
Ju Jus</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">. The way it appears on the </span><b style="color: black; font-family: Arial;">You Treated Me Bad</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;"> record label on
Fenton is </span><b style="color: black; font-family: Arial;">JuJus</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">. On Bill Gorski’s first version of </span><b style="color: black; font-family: Arial;">The JuJus</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;"> logo
on the bass drum when I joined them it said </span><b style="color: black; font-family: Arial;">THE JUJUS</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">. However, on his
later drum set the name appears as </span><b style="color: black; font-family: Arial;">The Ju Jus</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">We did practice for

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">We began our rehearsals putting
together our list of songs, mainly by </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Gerry And The Pacemakers</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">, </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">The
Beatles</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">, </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Ritchie Valens</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">, and as time passed we started writing our
own songs. We also practiced at my father’s plastic company H & H Plastic
Co. </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Rod Shepard</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">’s parents also owned a house that they rented out next to
theirs where we could also practice sometimes. The house was little with nothing
in it so it was ideal.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: right;">
</div>
<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">The first studio songs we did were put on a three
song audio disc acetate record, <b>Runaround</b> and <b>Hey Little Girl</b>,
both tunes I wrote for the group, plus an old <b>George Gershwin</b> tune called
<b>Summertime</b> that we recorded at Fenton Records in Sparta, Michigan in an
old movie theatre. After that I got the music bug! I went to work writing many
more tunes for the group like <b>You Treated Me Bad</b>. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">We performed at the movie theatre, where Fenton Records was
located and between movies we actually did live shows. We performed at several
roller skating rinks too, kind of like </span><b style="font-family: Arial;">Buddy Holly</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;"> did when he first
started with the Crickets.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">Later we performed at teenage night clubs
(like the Pony Tail) and high school dances too since </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial;">we were all in high scho</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ol
at the time, and also performed as the opening act before <b>Chubby Checker</b>
came on stage.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">The original copyright for <b>You Treated Me
Bad</b> dates from July 23, 1965.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Bill Gorski</b> was on drums, <b>Max Colley</b> on tenor sax, <b>Rod Shepard</b> on bass guitar, and me singing lead and playing guitar. I don’t remember any vocal back up on our first 45 of <b>You Treated Me Bad</b> and <b>Hey Little Girl</b>. I remember doing the only vocal. Things have become a little fuzzy over time but as I recall <b>Rod Shepard</b> switched from bass guitar to lead guitar for different songs. Often he would have two guitars on stage, a four string bass and six string electric guitar.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;"></span>
<span style="color: black; font-size: small;">I start the tune off picking the lead riff, before Bill and Rod come
in with the drums and bass. I switch between my settings on my guitar to get
that driving tremble pinch strum going, then I switch back when I say Oh get ’em
now. Also Max is in the mix wailing on his tenor sax, not to mention Bill’s
wonderful drum parts.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;"><br /><b>You Treated Me Bad</b> hit the No. 2 spot in WLAV’s
Top Forty chart of October 8th 1965.</span></span><br />

One of my favorite tunes that I wrote. It has such a powerful presence! Nice
vocal back up pads, lots of dynamics with Rod on bass, Max on sax, backing
vocals sound like Max. Rod does a nice bass part to start and Bill joins in
followed by the rest of us. I look back and I can hardly believe I wrote these
tunes. Of course I am humbled by the fact that <b style="font-size: medium;">The Ju Jus</b> established the
arrangements. I will always be grateful for their added creativity on all the
songs! They were very skilful.</span></span><br />

September 1965<br />LOCATION: Great Lakes Recording Co.<br /><br />COMMENTS:
<b style="font-size: medium;">Cryin’</b> has only one version, recorded at Great Lakes studio (Fenton
Records) in Sparta, Mi Fenton. As I look back, I wrote this tune and we recorded
it, but I don’t remember performing it out in public with the group. As I look
back, it seemed a pretty good sounding tune. I used a special gray box effects
unit on it that gave me that tremolo effect on my guitar at the start and
interjections in other parts of the song. Lots of great fills from Max on tenor
sax, and lots of driving bass and drums from Rod and Bill. My voice sounds
smooth, but then it was done in a studio with a high quality microphone, the
type of which I don’t have at home.</span></span><br />

only playing a lot when I first started, before I started writing. The recording
of <b style="font-size: medium;">Donna</b> was done shortly after I joined the group, and had only had the
four <b style="font-size: medium;">Ju Jus</b> on it: me singing and playing rhythm guitar, <b style="font-size: medium;">Max

played at sponsored, I believe, by WLAV Radio, where <b style="font-size: medium;">You Treated Me Bad</b>
later charted at No. 2. We actually performed at a large shopping mall that had
a large closed-in area where people could walk without being outdoors, it was
called Rogers Plaza Mall, where I met Donna. I’ve sung that song to death. I
really loved it and still do! Just like <b style="font-size: medium;">Don’t Let the Sun Catch You

come in with harmonica on a neck brace to keep the harmonica positioned close to
my mouth so I can get to the microphone easily when I am singing. My voice was
young then and I agree the voice was clear and pure and age had not set in yet.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I sit
here at my home in sunny Florida I can't help but think of my original homeland,
Michigan! Yes, Grand Rapids, Michigan where <b>The JuJus</b> formed as a group. It was
such an exciting time to be involved with music! It was the time of the “British
Invasion”! It was a time when our group performed at many of the top teen spots,
like the Pony Tail, opening for such acts as <b>Chubby Checker</b>, when everyone was
dancing the twist! We were blessed with a very ambitious manager, <b>Jim Geeting</b>.
He believed in us as a group, and invested his money and time to promote us. As
I recall when he took management of the group things began to turn in a positive
direction. He had us dress up kind of like <b>The Beatles</b>, and booked us at the top
spots!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The JuJus</b>
played mainly in Grand Rapids, however, they did play in some other cities and
towns in the state, though they never travelled out of Michigan for gigs. <b>The
JuJus</b> when I was with them played at such high schools as East Grand Rapids High
School where we actually opened for <b>Chubby Checker</b>. The fans actually rolled
JuJu candies at our feet! <b>The JuJus</b> fans went wild! It was great fun! We played
some college events, etc too and we also played at a WLAV dance at Roger's Plaza
Mall, a large mall where the DJ from WLAV was there to interview us when our
record hit number 2. We actually played live for the fans at the mall! It was a
memorable time for both <b>The JuJus</b> and the fans. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was
there that I met my girlfriend Donna! I think of this event as the most
climactic point in the career of all <b>The JuJus</b>. When the record ‘<b>You Treated Me
Bad</b>’ hit number 2 the band gained a lot of respect! Also – as you are probably
aware – <b>The JuJus</b> were inducted into the <b>Michigan Rock And Roll Hall of Fame</b>.
I just got an email about it but don't know the date or other details. One night
when I was playing with <b>The JuJus</b> a lady in the audience took a liking to me,
and it caused problems, and we had to leave out the back door with our
equipment. I believe we were playing at The Pit, which was a weekly dance put on
by the Saint Alphonsus Catholic Church. It was definitely a night that got out
of control! I then had a young lady stop by my home to get a keepsake from me,
she actually came right to my home! I wasn't home at the time, but my mother
gave the young lady one of my handkerchiefs! For the other <b>JuJus</b>, and myself,
the record brought romance into our lives! When we travelled we met lots of
young ladies too! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During
the time of <b>The JuJus</b> we played two different roller skating rinks, kind of like
<b>Buddy Holly</b> did in the 1950s. We played one in Grand Rapids called Woodland
Skating Rink, and another one out of town in Lowell, Michigan. They were great
fun to play! The one in Lowell was actually on the second floor of the building.
It had a large metal ladder-like platform with steps that led to the rink’s back
entrance. It was in this town that I also sang folk music at a county fair with
<b>Phil Shoemaker</b>, who played the gut bucket, a wash tube with a rope that
connected to a broom handle, which would produce bass sounds when you moved the
tension of the rope with the broom handle! At the time we were singing in the
parking lot of a restaurant! The owner heard us and gave us a job singing in his
establishment! As I recall I played a Goya nylon six-string guitar at the time.
Our two man act was called <b>The Irish Jacks</b>. This took place before <b>The JuJus</b>! I
met Phil at the same high school I was attending called Forest Hills Central
High School close to Ada, Michigan. Probably around
1963-1964.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also did
I mention the band <b>The Up Risers</b>, a trio I was with while I was in high school
too This band was pre-<b>JuJus</b>. There was a drummer and lead guitar player from the
high school I attended. It seems to me we played at the school and there exists
a picture that was taken when we were on stage. The lead guitar player was
called <b>Tom Wilcox</b>. I can't remember the drummer’s name. I was playing my
Rickenbacker guitar so it was just before I joined <b>The JuJus</b>, say 1963 or
earlier. I had my Corvette then, and I got it when I was 16. So it could have
been when I was 16 or 17 years old.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many
times I am asked why I left the group and what happened to me thereafter.
Towards the end of my time with <b>The JuJus</b> our manager contacted Drummond
Records, in Detroit, Michigan, a subsidiary of Liberty Records. Our group went
to see the management. They liked the group and the fact that we had follow-up
records already recorded. They also respected the fact that we had a number 2
record, just under ‘<b>Yesterday</b>’ by <b>The Beatles</b> on WLAV radio in Grand Rapids. I
was asked to sign a contract because I was the writer of the tunes at that time.
However, at the same time I was going to get married and my future wife did not
want me to travel so I turned down the contract, and left <b>The JuJus</b>. <b>Max Colley</b>
left shortly after I did. I should have stayed with the band, we had it made, a
recording contact offered and even a manager that had a studio <b>The JuJus</b> could
record in. The manager <b>Jim Geeting</b> actually
had money so he could buy the band uniforms, set up bookings at a teenage night
club they had called The Island (owned by Getting) and bring big name bands in
to appear with <b>The JuJus</b> like <b>The Electric Prunes</b>, or <b>The
Kingsmen</b>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As it
turned out the marriage didn’t work out so I was back on my own. Between
1966-1967 I went to Grand Rapids Community College to study business, as my
family owned a plastic company called H & H Plastics, and I was expected to
go into the family business. While I was going to college, I was approached by
two bands, one called <b>The Sundowners</b> in Caledonia, Michigan, and the other
called <b>The Legends</b>, from Holland, Michigan. The first band I joined after <b>The
JuJus</b> was <b>The Sundowners</b>. They needed a bass player. I didn't know how to play
the bass guitar, but <b>Denny Noffsinger</b> taught me, and before I knew it I was out
doing gigs with the band. As I recall we played at a lot of high school dances.
I remember I played a red Vox lemon drop shaped bass, kind of like <b>Bill Wyman</b>
from <b>The Rolling Stones</b>. You can see me with it on the cover of my 45 with <b>The
Legends</b> as back-up band. The record was called ‘<b>Fine Day</b>’/’<b>Gentle Rain</b>’ just
re-released on Ray Hummel III Records. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Note:
<i>The same two tunes were also recorded at Chess Studios on Michigan Ave. in
Chicago, Illinois, and are also re-released as another 45 rpm record on Ray

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Later I
joined <b>The Legends</b> under the leadership of <b>Ray Vasquez</b> who played the keyboard
and coached the whole band on their music as well as vocal parts. He coached us
on harmony parts for such tunes as ‘<b>Kind of A Drag</b>’ by <b>The Buckinghams</b>. With
this band I did the lead vocals and also, for a while, <b>Max Colley</b> joined us on
tenor sax. Max also did harmony parts, and directed the band when we recorded
‘<b>Fine Day</b>’/’<b>Gentle Rain</b>’ at the Fenton Studio in Sparta, Michigan, where the
recordings were made after-hours at a movie theater that also doubled as a
recording studio.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am
trying to remember how I met <b>Ray Vasquez</b>, I believe he called me from Holland,
MI., and asked if I would like to be the lead singer of <b>The Legends</b>. Well in
1967 I was still going to Grand Rapids Community College, and <b>Ray Vasquez</b> came
to the college and we went up to the third floor to the music area where Ray
played for me the wonderful piano part that he had just written for ‘<b>Gentle
Rain</b>’, later of course he went to Fenton and Chess with me to record both
versions of ‘<b>Fine Day</b>’ / ‘<b>Gentle Rain</b>’. I don't remember playing anywhere with <b>The Legends</b> or <b>The Traffic Jams</b> except in the recording studios of Fenton and Chess, as well as inside their practice room. In other words they became my
studio musicians for the two recording sessions. </span><br />

Traffic Jams</b> were actually many of <b>The Legends</b>, <b>Max Colley</b> and me. The idea of
the name orginally came, I believe, from a manager we had briefly named <b>Al
Harig</b>. He lived in Grand Rapids. I believe I met him while I was attending Grand
Rapids Community College. I can't remember if he was attending there too, but he
could have been… In fact the Japanese lady on the cover of the Fenton 45
attended the same college and agreed to dress up in her Japanese outfit for me.
Also there was a picture of <b>The Traffic Jams</b> set up in the middle of a traffic
intersection! Max did offer to be the arranger for the ‘<b>Fine Day</b>’ session at
Fenton, although he did not actually score the music for the session. I do
remember Max directing ‘<b>Fine Day</b>’. He basically directed the dynamics of the
music. He actually stood in front of the band at Fenton directing the crescendos
and decrescendos of volume within the band. He also appears as the arranger on
the record.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Shortly
after I went to sing for the Motown label on Grand Blvd. in Detroit. I sung for
<b>Berry Gordy</b>. The year was 1967. It was shortly after the riots in Detroit. Many
buildings around Motown were burned down, but thank God, Motown survived and so
did all the master recordings! They were very nice to me there. Back then they
had auditions every third Saturday of the month. As I recall I was the only
caucasian person there! I was asked to go into a small room that overlooked the
studio, where the door had to be unlocked electronically. As I
remember, <b>Berry Gordy</b> wasn’t very tall but he was very well dressed, and very
kind to me. They were located next to a funeral home. The original studio is
still there for visitors, but years ago they moved to Los Angeles, California.
There were several folding chairs set up for those that were waiting to
audition. There was a sign above it that read Hitsville,
U.S.A.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After I
left the bands I decided to do a single act, playing all the music and doing the
singing by myself. As it happened my first engagement was at Chase Lanes in
Grand Rapids. It was owned by two gentlemen that were twins. I had a hard time
at first telling them apart! It was there I developed my solo act, in a little
lounge inside a bowling alley. I was there for a year and a half. It was a very
intimate room where the lighting was turned down very low with candles. Quite a
romantic spot! I played a Gretsch guitar similar to <b>Gerry Marsden</b>'s, of <b>Gerry And The Pacemakers</b>, and did many tunes by artists from the British Invasion,
<b>Beatles</b>, <b>Gerry And The Pacemakers</b>, <b>Rolling Stones</b>, and of course tunes I wrote
for <b>The JuJus</b>. I also did songs by <b>Tom Jones</b>, <b>Engelbert Humperdink</b>, <b>The Doors</b>,
<b>Jose Feliciano</b>, and tunes from the musical <i>Hair</i>. Some of my favorite
tunes then were ‘<b>Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying</b>’, ‘<b>Delilah</b>’, ‘<b>Light My
Fire</b>’, ‘<b>California Dreaming</b>’, ‘<b>MacArthur Park</b>’, ‘<b>There’s A Kind of Hush</b>’,

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 1969 I
contacted Artists Corporation of America, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I talked to
<b>Bill Rothe</b>, the president of the booking agency that was booking 300 acts per
week! He said he liked my audition tape and that he would put me on the road
right away. I had to sign three-year contracts, and was with the agency for
approximately 20 years. Times were really good back then and at times he had me
booked a year and a half ahead! I gave him power of attorney to sign contracts
as I did not want to hold back any offers.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first
place he sent me was Fargo, North Dakota, in the month of February, 1969. It was
about 40 degree below zero! I had never travelled to such a cold climate! I hit
a deer in the middle of a snow storm on the interstate. I was pulling a u-haul
trailer and to my amazement my equipment was not damaged! Back then I was using
Echolette speakers and echo unit made in West Germany. I insured my equipment
through a company connected with Lloyd's of London, as I was afraid it may get
damaged in transit. Actually, on my first booking to Fargo, I met a group that
came by bus who claimed they were <b>The Animals</b>! I don't know if it was true or
not? While I was performing in Minot, North Dakota, Karen and <b>Richard Carpenter</b>,
from A&M Records came to hear me sing, as they were in town to do a concert.
Also in Minot, I met a relative of the guy that produced <i>The</i> <i>Sonny and
Cher Show</i>, he lived in Vancouver, British Columbia, in Canada. He invited me
to come and see him but since I was so far away and had already signed contracts
I could not go.</span></div>

sung ‘<b>Cotton Fields</b>’. He actually had a room just down the hall from me! He was

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After
many years on the road I wanted to record again. I missed the record business
and being an active part of it. I longed to record again. After hundreds of
letters to record companies, publishers, producers, I made contact with <b>Chuck
Chellman</b>, from Philadelphia, who had moved to Nashville and was active as a
producer, publisher and had his own label called Renegade Records. I contracted
him to be my producer and immediately I began receiving demo reel to reel tapes
from many major publishers and labels, of songs for me to consider for my
recording session. After months of rehearsal and sifting through the mounds of
material I decided on four tunes. I would record ‘<b>Can't Keep A Good Memory
Down</b>’, ‘<b>Daily Grinds And Neon Signs</b>’, ‘<b>For Whatever It's Worth</b>’, and ‘<b>Don't
Point Your Finger</b>’. I set the date for the recording session and booked a flight
to Nashville, Tennessee, where I obtained a motel room, and each day my producer
would pick me up and I would go to his office and rehearse. Finally, I was ready
and on the fourth day we went to the studio. It was located in Goodletsville,
Tennessee, and run by <b>Fred Carter</b>, who had a daughter that would later become a
very successful country recording artist. The musicians and back-up singers did
their parts perfectly the first time through! True professionals! I used <b>Mel
Tillis</b>’ studio back-up singers, two male and two female singers, I believe they
were called <b>The Statesiders</b>. Also <b>Sonny Garrison</b> who at the time was playing
steel guitar and dobro for <b>Jerry Reed</b>, played on the session. My producer tried
to get <b>Elvis Presley</b>'s drummer, <b>D.J. Fontana</b> for the session, but he had a
previous obligation... I stayed and continued to polish my lead vocals. The tunes were later originally pressed at
GRT Records, a subsidiary of RCA Records in Nashville,
Tennessee.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first two tunes to be released were
‘<b>Can't Keep A Good Memory Down</b>’ and ‘<b>Daily Grinds And Neon Signs</b>’ on the
Renegade label in 1978. I decided to release it first in my home state of
Michigan and it received airplay on 29 out of 34 country stations. I wanted to
get enough stations playing it so I could get help from <b>Tommy Gelardi </b>in
Detroit, who was connected with Martin and Snyder Distribution, who handled
distribution for juke boxes in the Detroit and Canadian areas. Finally, when
they were convinced that the record was good they purchased 1,000 records for
juke boxes plus helped me get airplay on the powerful 50,000 watt channel CKLW
in Winsor, Ontario, Canada. Then things started to happen! At this point I felt
my record had good potential and decided to contact a distributor that would
promote and distribute my 45 rpm record to 1,000 radio stations and 137
distributors across the United States. I contacted Joe and <b>Betty Gibson</b> at
Nationwide Sound Distributors in Nashville, Tennessee. At that time they were
distributing such artists as the group <b>Alabama</b>, who later went to RCA, <b>The
Kendalls</b>, etc. They promoted my record to 100 Billboard
stations.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Later I
thought why not take the record to other parts of the world. I started my
correspondence, and made contact with <b>Manfred Vogel</b> who was the publisher of a
country magazine called <i><b>Country Corner</b></i> in West Germany, and he also said
he would take my record to <b>Radio Cologne</b> and also <b>Radio Luxembourg</b>, the most
powerful radio station in the world at the time. I believe over 1,000,000 watts.
I understand it covered most of Europe. The Nashville recordings were also
promoted in France, Sweden, Japan, Australia, Denmark, etc. To say the least, I
was very excited! As a result of the Nashville recordings I was asked to do
shows with such country stars as <b>Little Jimmy Dickens</b>, <b>Justin Tubbs</b> (<b>Ernest
Tubbs</b>’ son), <b>Jack Greene</b>, <b>Skeeter Davis</b>, <b>Charlie Walker</b>, etc. All Nashville
recordings artists, many of whom had million selling
records.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On my
first visit to Nashville, I had seen <b>Roy Clark</b> in <b>Boots Randolph</b>’s Club in
Printer’s Alley. It was a very nice club with a small balcony. I saw <b>Johnny
Rodriguez</b> sing, who had just got signed. I actually got up and sung, I believe,
‘<b>For The Good Times</b>’ or some other tune and Johnny said he liked my singing.
This was in 1977. Also on that first visit to Nashville my mother actually came
with me. We flew from Grand Rapids, I believe, to Chicago, O’Hare Airport.
While waiting to take the plane to Nashville I met <b>Don Gibson</b> who had country
hits out. He invited me to come to his studio
called Hickory Records in Nashville. As I
recall I had met him before when I was playing in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, at a
place called Dexter's. Don heard me sing along with his band, and felt that I
would sound good on tape. It was during the same time I had begun doing a lot of
writing. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also,
when I went to Nashville again in 1984 I set up an appointment to see <b>Eddie
Kilroy</b> who at the time produced records for <b>Jerry Lee Lewis</b>, <b>Mickey Gilley</b>,
<b>Louise Mandrell</b>, etc. It was during the Country Music Awards so it had to be in
October of 1984. He had just had lunch with <b>Jerry Lee Lewis</b> and then had the
appointment with me. He was a very nice man to talk with. He said he liked my
first Nashville recordings with <b>Chuck Chellman</b> and was surprised they were my
first Nashville efforts. He said he would like to produce my records but said it
would cost $35,000.00 to produce 4 tunes! I decided it was too expensive for me
so I backed down from the offer. However, <b>Eddie Kilroy</b> has produced many gold
records.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At that
time, during the Country Music Awards, I also went to <b>Willie Nelson</b>'s publishing
company. So many of the country stars were in town. When I went to Willie's
company, he was there to my surprise! I was so shocked I think I said hello,
and then probably talked to his office girl! I believe I probably got some tunes
from him to record, but never did use them. He was standing up working with a
reel to reel machine mounted on a platform. His office was located close to my
producer <b>Chuck Chellman</b>'s office. Also <b>Waylon Jennings</b> office was close by. My
producer was also good friends with the RCA people, those working at the studio
and office that many of the RCA artists recorded at, like <b>Elvis Presley</b>. I also
went to <b>Dolly Parton</b>'s publishing company to gather tunes to consider recording.
Dolly wasn’t there but <b>Walter Hale</b>, the man that ran <b>Dolly Parton</b>'s publishing
company, was. As I recall he had an English accent, and could have originally
been from England. Also, as I was driving in Nashville, I passed a yellow
Cadillac in which <b>Kenny Rogers</b> was driving! As I mentioned before, I set up an
appointment with <b>Eddie Kilroy</b>, who at the time ran Playboy records for <b>Hugh
Hefner</b>. He drove a truck as I recall and had an old English sheep dog. As I
visited him in his office, I noticed he had a picture of his wife. As I recall
she was sick at the time. I believe Eddie later became the president of Tree
Publishing, the largest publishing company in Nashville. </span><br />

very important, I visited </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Shelby Singleton</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">’s Publishing and recording studio
where such people as </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Johnny Cash</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> recorded. They were connected, or should I say
it was the Nashviile location for Sun records. I realize the original Sun was in
Memphis, Tennessee, but they later moved to Nashville. I recall seeing a </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Johnny
Cash</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> 45 on the wall... I met the nephew of the owner, </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sidney Singleton</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">. I
asked him for good material to record and also mentioned that I needed a
producer for a project I was working on of 25 of the most popular country tunes
that all sold over a million copies. He asked that a guitar be brought down and
asked me to sing. I probably did something by</span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Willie Nelson</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> like ‘</span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To All The

had sung he said he had a producer for me by the name of </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Walt Cunningham</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, who at
the time was producing </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Patti Page</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> who made the big hit ‘</span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tennessee Waltz</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">’. I’d
already had an offer from</span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Eddie Kilroy</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> to produce my records but, as you recall
me telling you, he was very expensive, however, well worth it if I had the
funds. Anyway, Sidney called </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Walt Cunningham</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and he came right down and we
talked. As I recall he was young, and seemed like he would be easy to work
with. Plus there was something about him that suggested he would be a very hard
worker, and just might be able to get to the right people for me, as he lived in
Music City. What a great place to live where the music business was
truly alive! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also,
prior to my 1984 Nashville visit, I sat down with a large stack of records and
looked for the person that had written the most number one hits! That person
turned out to be <b>Ben Peters</b>. He had his own publishing company at the time. I
called him and when I got to Nashville I set up an appointment to see him. I
drove to his home which I believe was in Brentwood, Tennessee. I drove into his
driveway and I couldn't believe it! It looked like an apartment building! He was
also a recording artist and at one time was on Liberty Records, that same label <b>The JuJus</b> would have been on if I would’ve signed that contract with Drummond
Records in Detroit, as it was a subsidiary of Liberty records! As I entered his
home we entered a large room which was filled with gold records! I had never
seen so much gold before! They were everywhere! On the walls, on the ceiling, it
was quite a sight to behold! I was blown away! I did not realize it at the time
but I found out later that that year he was voted the number one country
songwriter of the year by the Country Music Association.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 1990,
I received a phone call from my mother. She said she was on the floor and could
not move. I drove immediately to her home and had the ambulance pick her up. She
had had a stroke. For many months she was in hospital. As it turned out I would
take care of my mother for 20 years. I stopped travelling, but started attending
a church in Grand Rapids called First Assembly of God. I became a believer and
got active in the music. The church holds 5,000 people, and has a 60 piece
orchestra and 300 voice choir! I could definitely get active in music here, I
thought! I joined the choir, and later discovered some of my new Christian
friends were active in music ministries, and told me about the TCT Network that
had stations up and down the eastern part of the United States. Many of the
stations were local but from time to time would video tape programs that would
be aired across the whole network. So I started singing on Christian television,
singing many southern gospel tunes that were similar to the country music I had
been playing, but of course with a completely
different message! Meanwhile I had been talking to my father in Florida, and one
day he told me he had lung cancer. So my mother and I made arrangements to move
to Florida so I could take care of both my mother and father. My father lived
until October 28, 2001. Now it was my mother and I. She did well for a while but
later went completely blind, could not walk, and had other medical issues. She
passed away on November 6, 2010 from COPD; very serious breathing
problems.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During
the time of my parents’ illnesses I continued to go to church, and decided to
make Calvary Chapel my home church here in Florida. I joined the choir, but
later decided that I would go on my own and prepare music of my own and other
artists for Christian music concerts. So presently I am busy here in Florida
working on Christian concert material. Christian contemporary rock, southern
gospel, traditional, songs I have written, etc. are all in my plans. My first
two Christian recordings are finished and I am in the process of releasing two
tunes I just wrote called ‘<b>They Love Jesus All Around The World</b>’ and ‘<b>Do As
Jesus Would Do</b>’. If you would like to hear them in their entirety just go online
to <a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=2783044812387522698" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">www.cdbaby.com</span></a> They are
copyrighted, and published, so they are legal for airplay in case you may know
of a Christian station that would be interested in your area. Your prayers for
my music ministry would be greatly appreciated. Keep the music of <b>The JuJus</b>
playing! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>IT'S NOTHING</b> / <b>EVRY 5TH IS FREE</b> (FA 6515) Price: CHF 10 Swiss Franks</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />"Special 50th anniversary collectors release!" Contains the never before released english sung original versions of <b>Aiuto!...Va Sempre Male?</b> and <b>Il Quinto Non Lo Paghi</b> from 1967. <br /><br />Both tunes are originals. <b>It's Nothing</b> puts some spectacular monster, distorted lead guitar riffs around a wild Freakbeat / Mod / Beat sound. It sounds much more abrasive than the italian version (<b>Aiuto!...Va Sempre Male?</b>) thanks to it's english lyrics. The flipside plays a fabulous ballad written by their bandleader <strong>Toni Vescoli</strong> that catches <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> at their finest!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is even better than the hard to find italian version of the Single made by Columbia records in 1967!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In addition to this, <b>Toni Vescoli</b> will also be self publishing his book about <b>LES SAUTERELLES</b> in August 2012. (editors note: The book was finally delayed for release until ca. August 2013, this is according to the latest infos that we've got from <strong>Toni Vescoli</strong>)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm sure that this book will become the bible for any serious <b>SAUTERELLES</b> fans, for it will be guaranteed to contain the by far vastest amount of infos about the band that has ever been gathered together for a book. The by far biggest and most accurate piece ever written about the band, and everything directly from the pencil of the band leader himself!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Details are not known yet, but Toni's book about <b>LES SAUTERELLES</b> is guaranteed to contain a lot of rare unseen photo material, along with various pictures of rare band memorabilia from 1962 until now. It will most likely be written in German, but I'm sure that some of the non - German speaking collectors will want to get it anyways, as it should be worth it for the rare photo material alone!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Definitely a must have for any serious Swiss 60s Beat fans! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The book about <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> will be available for sale directly from <strong>Toni Vescoli</strong>'s following website when ready:</span><a href="http://www.vescoli.ch/"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">http://www.vescoli.ch/</span></a><br />

Tickets for <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> gig at Rigiblick have already sold out several days in advance. The theatre had been packed to the last chair with enthusiastic local 60s fans from mostly the first hour. <br /><br />Between sets, as well as after the show members of <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> were busy signing their highly recommended brandnew CD (entitled <strong>Yesterday</strong>) of vintage 60s recordings, as well as copies of their two 45s from the Feathered Apple label for their fans. They've eventually signed around a hundred record covers, and photos for their fans easily!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Towards the end of the show they've had to play some encores to calm down the screaming, and stomping crowd at the Rigiblick. <br /><br />The best, and oldest still ongoing Swiss Beat band from the 60s! A fantastic band to see live, and they still have NOT lost it a bit after 50 years as a band!!!!! Düde was still pounding the drums with the skills, and energy of ca. a <strong>Keith Moon</strong> of the <strong>WHO</strong>, which is not surprising for such a technically perfect drummer. Toni still has not lost his very unique brand of voice that has always made <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> sound so special, and different from all other bands either. Fantastic work also from their lead guitarist <strong>Peter Glanzmann</strong> too, who's been able to capture the 60s sound in real splendid way on most songs, he was adding a few new licks unheard back in the 60s onto two or three songs (with success), while <strong>Freddy Mangili</strong>, <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> bass player from the <strong>Hongkong</strong> / <strong>Forget It All</strong> 45, and Swiss Beat-Live LP period was just always </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">doing the right thing, also to keep in pace with the others too. A great line up, that has been together for the past 20 years already! Go to <strong>LES SAUTERELLES</strong> website to find out about their next shows.</span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Absolutely MONSTER previously unreleased ’66 Miami, Florida Punk doubledecker by the legendary “<strong>Whatcha Gonna Do About It</strong> / <b>Always Runnin' Around</b>” crew! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the by far BEST unreleased U.S. 60s records is finally available for the very first time ever as a limited 45 rpm thanks to Norvegian top 60s collector <b>Tage Weie</b>, who has been cool enough to get in touch with the bandleader <b>John Doyle</b>! It was also Tage who had been convincing <b>John Doyle</b> that the two songs should finally be released. Something that we all should be glad about, because the two songs easily rate amongst the finest from the 60s!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If I would have to put a vote for the best 60s Punk reissue 45 of recent years, then it would most probably be this one!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Later on I've learned about their biography via Jeff Lemlich's fabulous book <b>Savage Lost</b> (<b>Florida Garage Bands</b> - <b>The '60s And Beyond</b>). </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The classic first <b>EVIL</b> lineup was consisting of <b>John Doyle</b> (lead vocals), <b>Stan Kinchen</b> (lead guitar), <b>Al Banyai</b> (rhythm guitar), <b>Doug Romanella</b> (drums), and <b>Larry O'Connell</b> (bass). This is the lineup that has also played on all of their records too, with the sole exception of the track </span><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whatcha Gonna Do About It</b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, which was recorded by a different, later lineup.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They were formed by <b>Stan Kinchen</b>, <b>Al Banyai</b>, and <b>John Doyle</b> in summer of 1965. The band was named by <b>John Doyle</b>. By September 1965 their lineup was completed by the joining of <b>Doug Romanella</b> on drums, and <b>Larry O'Connell</b> on bass. With this first lineup they've already been winning W</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">FUN's </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">annual </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dade County Youth Fair Battle Of The Bands in March '66, that had promptly led them to the recording / cutting of three demo only acetates.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong>JOHN DOYLE</strong>: "It was the 1966 Youth Fair. It looks like it wasn't always held in the same month each year. I know it was winter because I had bragged that if we won the Battle of the Bands (a long shot I thought), I would jump into the large lake behind the tent. (<strong>Cleve Johns</strong> of <strong>The Shaggs</strong> called it "The Noise in a Tent Contest") Well, we won and I jumped into the lake and then wore wet clothes for an hour or two after we won....it was COLD!!!!!! Ah, youth,eh?"</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Their band leader <strong>John Doyle</strong> doesn't seem to remember about the title of the song that they were originally recording for the flipside of their still lost demo-only <strong>Always Runnin' Around</strong> acetate anymore.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong></strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>JOHN DOYLE</strong>: "Not sure about the demo sides. We didn't record <strong>My Generation</strong>, as I remember,
would have loved to do so. All of this happened very early in the band's short
history, so things naturally are a bit hazy. We really hadn't played jobs
often, if ever, before we won the contest. I turned 17 the month the band began
and Stan was 16 years old. I can close my eyes and still see Stan's yellow
legal pad with his ideas for songs, poems and titles (there was also another
song that didn't get recorded...<strong>Sanctuary For Falling Rocks</strong>...("My time was
coming....but passed me by...like the last rays of sunshine.....I refuse to
die!"). All that to say, a few of Stan's ideas became songs that we practiced
(along with Doug's songs) the others were unfinished and essentially never
played, especially in public. Somehow, I think we were made aware that our free
recording time didn't include tons of mixing and frills, so there would ample
time to do more than 2 or 3 songs. The largest percent of <strong>I'm Movin' On</strong> was
written at 65 MPH on the way to the Studio."</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>EVIL</b>'s rare debut 45 from the Living Legend label has been far superior to the edited version from the Capitol label. </span><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Always Runnin' Around</b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> is a superb catchy mid-fast folk-punk classic that I'm sure every decent U.S. 60s fan will be familiar to, while the topside was probably featuring the best version of the </span><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Small Faces</b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> cut ever recorded! An awesome 2-sider, but unfortunately their only release from the 60s!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Around 15 years later, after my first discovering of the band <strong>EVIL</strong> on <b>Dave Gibson</b>'s poorely made Boulders bootleg series, I've picked up the brandnew <b>EVIL</b> split LP from the Corduroy label out of Australia in ca. 1997. The true highlights for me from that LP have always been the two unreleased <b>EVIL</b> cuts <b>I'm Movin' On</b>, and <b>I Know I'll Die</b>! After listening to<b> I'm Movin' On</b> I've finally realized that the band was rightfully called<b> EVIL</b>!<b> I'm Movin' On</b> is a super wild but still perfectly played 60s punk raver from the top that builds up into perhaps the most sonic, savage, screaming punk climax ever put to wax! <u>Real dynamite stuff</u>, but probably much too wild for most labels to release back in the 60s!</span><br />

By the time when the Corduroy LP was released I've had already gotten <b>Jeff Lemlich</b>'s must read book <strong>Savage Lost</strong>. (Go to the following website to order your copy of <strong>Savage Lost</strong> directly from the author: <br /><a href="http://www.limestonerecords.com/website/author/author.htm" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;"><strong>Limestone Records</strong></span></a> )</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Jeff's book already had most of the unreleased <b>EVIL</b> cuts listed. Jeff had also written the liner notes text for the Corduroy LP, where he was mentioning that the lost track <b>From A Curbstone</b> was supposed to be even BETTER than all the other <b>EVIL</b> tracks that had previously surfaced!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Almost two more decades later <b>Tage Weie</b> from Norway finally sends out demos of two absolutely killer songs by <b>EVIL</b> that I've thought would never show up again!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>Previously unreleased 1966 Miami, Florida garage punk - the real thing! These two songs, 'From A Curbstone' and 'Short Life' were recorded in 1966 and soon after, the demo acetates went missing. Our bass player's mother found them a while back in a hat box and after 46 years, this is the first public offering. If you liked our 'Whatcha Gonna Do About It' cover of the Small Faces classic, I think you'll love this. 'Curbstone' was written as my response to being dumped by my first girlfriend and finally I get my revenge. Both sides would have perfectly fit onto the highly acclaimed Back From The Grave series. Great liner notes by Jeff Lemlich, Florida's legendary rock historian on the stylish flip-back cover. This is the first time the band has had control of a release and it feels good. Be the first on your block to own this little gem. (John Doyle, leadsinger of Evil)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>EVIL</b> / <b>THE MONTELLS</b> - Same (Australia - Corduroy CORD 027) 1997<br /><br />Comments: Rare split LP with <b>THE MONTELLS</b> on the Australian Corduroy label from 1997. It contains four (4) tracks by <b>EVIL</b> (<b>I'm Moving On</b> / <b>Whatcha Gonna' Do About It?</b> /<b> I Know I'll Die</b> / <b>Always Runnin' Around</b>), along with 6 cuts by <b>THE MONTELLS</b>. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Corduroy LP cover puts a couple of errors: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1) The band name should have read <b>EVIL</b>, not <b>THE EVIL</b>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2) Track #3: <b>Don't Put Me Down (uncensored)</b> got wrongly credited to <b>THE EVIL</b> on the LP cover! Fact is that </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Don't Put Me Down (uncensored)</b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> was recorded by </span><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">THE MONTELLS</b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> for the flipside of their Saint / Blue Saint label Singles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3) They wrongly put "LL 103" (instead of the correct "LL 108") as release number for <b>EVIL</b>'s debut Single on the Living Legend label.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At first, the rock ‘n’ roll life seemed an unlikely one for me. I was born in Alexandria, Egypt, at the end of 1948 into a very wealthy aristocratic family of Lebanese, Greek and Italian origin. As a baby, I was almost killed by an insane nanny who hung me by the feet to make me puke up my mother’s milk. That woman’s torture of me lasted one month. I must have hated the world as I felt the fear and the terror she instilled in me. But it was that bitch who turned me into a rebel. I owe her!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As the socialist revolution shook Egypt, so our schoolyard became a battleground where European teenagers confronted their Arabic counterparts. This violence frightened me, but I got involved, somehow fascinated despite my fear. I was but eight years old.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The revolution and its violence obliterated my sedate family environment. I bought my first knife. Fear, excitement, and gang leaders occupied my mind, but the soundtrack was missing. My family was exiled to Switzerland. Here, suddenly, I was exposed to Gene Vincent, Elvis and Johnny Hallyday, all courtesy of a friend who had been expelled from school. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Institut Le Rosey, a prestigious boarding school in Rolle (summer) and Gstaad (winter), Switzerland, was an international playground for rich kids where American cool cats ruled. They blasted the latest hit records on 45s and prowled in gangs humming “Louie Louie.” Some of them owned shiny yellow Telecasters or bright red Eko electric guitars. They bullied us kids until we fought back in desperation, and became one of them. Forget studies. Forget school. We wanted only to belong. We wanted to be cool as ice. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After a knife fight in the woods one night, I joined “La Klique,” a gang of teenage playboys. Each night, we drank a small glass of Dubonnet, the spark that fuelled my eventual descent into alcoholism and drug addiction. But at the time, I had found my Higher Power. Cool was the rule, and it was 1964 -- OK! </span></div>

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When I checked into my gloomy four-bedded room at Le Rosey in September 1962, you wouldn’t have guessed it was suitable for the ‘rich and famous’ as they nicknamed that school. I had little street credibility: I had listened to Elvis and Gene Vincent and I carried a knife. Suddenly, the door flung open and seven mean looking students barged in and looked at me with a smirk. In half a second I was flat on my bed, they tore my shirt open and held me down as one of them produced a tennis racked that he applied against my belly, flesh protruding between the square holes of the stringing. Another punk proceeded to viciously scrape the protruding flesh with a hard brush. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I got initiated to the “Pink Belly”, laughing, they left me there with my belly purple and bloody. I could hardly move for eight painful days. The same gang came back every night to beat me and other new students up. We lived in terror of “La Klique”. That’s how they were called as we soon learned. They were unstoppable and threatened more violence if we talked. So it was the silence of the lambs. The latest rock’n’roll singles from the States rocked their bedrooms and I couldn’t help but be surprised that they listened to the Ronettes, The Crystals and other girl bands. Just like the New York Dolls would be doing ten years later.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I dreaded them but I was fascinated. A month later, there was only one of them, Reza Vakili, a sadistic Iranian that still bothered to beat me up every evening. While he dropped his dinner jacket, I tried talking him into teach me a few tricks as by now it would be pretty boring for him to flatten me in one go! He liked the idea and a few days later, we became friends and he left me alone, concentrating his nastiness on my roommates.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I got to listen to Cliff Richard, Bobby Darin or The Surfaris in their rooms, I noticed their walls were covered with pin-up girls wearing bikinis. They taught me how to use my fists, throw a knife and dress cool. They taught me how to whistle and snap my fingers to the beat. I wanted to belong, so they organized my first knife fight in the woods. I was to fight mad Jay Sicre who was also an aspiring member of “La Klique”. We could only aim at both arms and both legs! After the first blood, Bill Ladd, their incredibly good-looking leader, (later kicked out for having gotten a village girl pregnant) interrupted the fight to my relief: I was the one bleeding and Jay and I both became full-fledged members.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Clothes were of paramount importance. Finding a pair of tight blue jeans was like looking for the Holy Grail in Switzerland. And the hiding place of the Grail looked remarkably like “Petit Jakob’s”, a cramped import shop. We’d walk in to be greeted by the owner of the shop, who sat with his deformed wife on a pile of clothes. Weird! White jeans, smart gilets, madras jackets, Beatle boots, Ray Ban sunglasses, marine caps, and dangling silver bracelets were hip.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">An arrogant good-looking Brazilian cat, Miguel Correa, formed the first school band and gave it the arrogant name "So Much Us". How the Swedish babes fell for that guy, and how badly he treated them! Miguel, a self-taught and dazzling player, was a Hank Marvin (of the Shadows) fanatic. He remiked his Burns guitar, and fireworks flew out. So Much Us would play high school dances and balls; its original lineup featured Flavian “Kasa” Kasavubu (son of the then Congolese president) as lead singer. Crooning like his idol, the fat French pop star Richard Anthony, Kasa covered “J'irai Twister Le Blues” (“I’m Gonna Twist the Blues”) and “J'entends Siffler Le Train” (“I Hear The Whistle Of The Train”). Miguel would swing into guitar instrumentals by the Shadows. Drummers were a rare lot back then, so Miguel imported a Swiss friend from another school, the awesome André Tièche. André’s drumming skills would later evoke those of Charlie Watts and, like Watts, André became everybody's darling, as well as my best friend. Sweet tempered, he carried knives and guns, and he was fascinated by magic and westerns.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Later in the seventies, André played an essential role in my own bands, first Locomotive and then The Thunderbirds. In 1977, he formed Jack & The Rippers with Jean-Marie “Babine” Greiner and the Seilern brothers. And about that same time, we were shocked to read that he had been murdered while working for the Red Cross in Rhodesia by drug-war gangs. His last picture was featured on the front page of the Herald Tribune. I had introduced him to Keith Richards who still remembers him fondly.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Meanwhile, back to So Much Us. Their glory culminated when Miguel and Kasavubu were photographed by Life magazine for an article on our “school of the rich and famous.” But French-singing Kasa soon exasperated Miguel who, like all of us, had moved on and got into The Pretty Things, The Who, The Byrds, The Yardbirds, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Count Five, and The Shadows Of Knight. I had a crush on The Boots, a long haired German mod band.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My roommate at that time was a tough American bad boy with a lady-killer smile called Jim Houghton. He became Miguel's rhythm guitar player, and he quickly picked up those bar chords on The Kinks’ “All Day And All Of The Night.” As for myself, I was happy just to play “air guitar” along with the portable record player, dreaming that I would become Brian Jones. I even dated a girl who not only wore a Brian Jones haircut but also sported a pair of lips like Mick's!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After dinner, the ever-despotic Miguel would herd band members and aficionados into the study hall. “La Klique” members would crowd into the first row. On stage, we had only three small amps to power both guitars, the bass and the vocals, two microphones and a drum kit. Our enthusiasm did the rest!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During 1965 and 1966, revolution was in the air, a glorious, joyful sense of freedom for our generation. At this time, So Much Us became an all-American garage style band: besides Miguel, who played lead guitar and sang backing vocals, we had Jim Houghton on rhythm guitar, Tyni Vandersteel on bass, Kelvin Vanderlip on drums, and sexy Henri Hay took the lead vocals. We covered “Daddy Rolling Stone,” “I Can't Explain,” “I Feel a Whole Lot Better,” “I'm a Man,” “Suzie Q,” and so many other sixties’ youth anthems. Henri Hay also played tambourine, an essential attribute to the sixties sound. He wore striped Lovin’ Spoonful t-shirts, and he traveled through life like a beatnik. His best friend Tyni Vandersteel was tall and lanky, and Miguel had entrusted him with his Hofner “violin” bass à la Paul McCartney. Kelvin “Lips” Vanderlip, besides playing decent drums, happened to be a genius with electronics. With Tyni’s help, he built a radio transmitter with a one kilometer range. “Radio Rosey” would blast “Have You Seen Your Mother Baby Standing in the Shadow” while Henri Hay, D.J. Supremo, stood by to comment on the latest school gossip.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

So I turn to my record player, my life saver and I blast “Little Red Rooster”, by the Rolling Stones, in the living room of our chalet, stopping my parent’s conversation dead. Brian Jones plays slide on his tear shape white Vox guitar on this number and I have never felt such a thrill on bottleneck guitar since. He defies any competition to this day. Brian was, and is still, my ultimate idol. Nobody ever came close to his charisma.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My Mother’s boyfriend and future second husband happened to be the late Prince Sadri Aga Khan, Uncle of the actual Ismaïli Man-God. Previously, he had brought back the Joey Dee And The Starlighters live at the Peppermint Lounge album from the States and the first Beatles album from England. He was hip to novelty music. Hearing the Stones blaring out, he came over and asked who cut this incredible single. When I told him that they were playing the Olympia in Paris in 10 days, he unhooked the phone and asked his secretary to book 6 tickets. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Easter holidays changed aspect in a flash! He got 5th row seats for us two, my two younger brothers, my Mother and my Father who followed like a zombie. Outside, fans were on the verge of a riot. The Olympia still had seats then; this is somehow foolhardy when you consider their mass destruction by teenagers in the early 60’s. As I reached row number 5, I could feel the tension in the hall. If someone would have lit the fuse … still, I couldn’t believe my eyes: Françoise Hardy was sitting on my left. British pop stars adored her looks and detached singing and she was considered ultra hip by the likes of Bob Dylan, John Lennon and Mick Jagger. She seemed unperturbed by the shrieking screams of the young girls that felt exhilarating though eerie after a while. My Father fell asleep! Le President Rosko appeared wearing Prince Valiant haircut cum sideburns, “Salut les Mamy-o’s et les Daddy-o’s”, shouted the famous radio D.J. Who always started his shows with this ridiculous welcome. Screams and whistles went out to the max. “Groovy!!!” and now: Evy!” A midget doll from Germany</span><span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> ferociously hit the stage surrounded by equally gnomic Japanese musicians sporting long hair and shiny blue satin suits. Nothing more modern looking has ever been invented! They courageously opened the show with a tight set of tough rockers. In those golden days, rock’n’roll shows featured as many as seven acts, some of them allowed only 20 minutes on stage. It’s plenty enough! Only ten years later, with punk bands, it again became obvious that hour long sets by “virtuoso” band members indulging in endless ‘solos’ were crap.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some of these guys did not get by so easy and the curtain fell appropriately on this Belgian band massacring Buddy Holly, a rocker long forgotten by Stones fanatics. The audience took no prisoners: they loved you or they hated you. The poor singer in red turtleneck got booed while all sorts of garbage were thrown at him till … curtains! We were laughing madly! Vince Taylor, also sporting Prince Valiant hairdo stepped in wearing black leather. He howled to death in an epileptic fit, rolled on the ground with half closed eyes, clutching the mike with leather gloves, restoring a bit more respect from the angry crowd. Behind him stood Mr. Tambourineman, the infamous </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16px;"><span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Prince Stanislaus Klossowski De Rola</span></span><span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> who got busted with Brian Jones by the narcotic police in London. Years later, this rock’n’roll alchemist would introduce me to Keith Richards and we are friends to this day. He still dresses like the Marquis de Sade. On drums, I witnessed the performance of the evening: The super sonic Bobby Clarke who played wilder and faster than his own shadow. I did not expect to see Vince on that night. So many extravagant stories had created an evil aura around him … the devastation by his fans of the Palais des Sports, Brigitte Bardot, shackles and chains, stripteases, leather … now he seemed tortured, a wounded animal. Soon he would crash and burn into madness and oblivion. LSD finished him off. Still tonight he got us screaming and wailing. What a treat! Rosko came back to announce Rocky Roberts And The Airedales of “T.Bird” fame. Now T.Bird is still one of the top singles in my book, it’s soul that rocks at manic speed. Now this is a professional nightclub black band that plays the Club 58 in Geneva or grand hotels in Beyrouth! Well, believe me, I feared for the Rolling Stones. Rocky Roberts is lean and tall and he wears huge Onassis shades and shiny blue toreador jackets. He bends his body down to his heels when he limbos and dances so extravagantly, the Airedales sound so tight that the crowd goes apeshit for these guys. Rosko himself is shaken. Françoise Hardy seems in heaven. Sadri, my future stepfather, goes berserk. He gets up on his seat like the rest and shouts, “Fuck off, we want the Stones!” to President Rosko. On my left I can hear my Father snoring. “Not bad these Rollie Rocks”, will he comment while waking up after the show. Pandemonium hits the Olympia while the Stones stroll on, unperturbed, relaxed, casually dressed.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was effortless. They looked bored and they changed my life. Mick Jagger hardly moved then. He sang the blues with a plaintive, sad voice and shook his maracas distractively. He oozed sex. I became a metrosexual in one second: I could make love to women and still release the woman in me. It gave me a freedom that goes beyond sex. I owe Mick a true spiritual experience, the kind that would alter the minds of a whole generation. Later on during the </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">seventies, Mick pulled my future wife, then age 15! She didn’t resist but I still married her seven years later. I hated Mick for blatantly doing this to me when I was Keith’s friend. But I played with fire hanging out with the devil …</span><br />

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back to the Olympia. They opened with the riveting “Everybody Needs Somebody To Love”, by Solomon Burke. At the time, their hit was, “It’s All Over Now”, by the Valentinos. Keith Richards moved nervously, looking uncomfortable and his hair was not long enough yet to cover his elephant-size ears! Boy was he ugly! Mick pretended to speak French and called a shy Charlie Watts to introduce “Little Red Rooster”. To think that I would lend the drummer my house in Pukhet – Thaïland 10 years later … He only once hit the beach: he had bought the Bangkok Post and that’s how he got informed that his own house back in England had burnt down to ground with his legendary collection of suits! There were no telephones in Pukhet back then ….</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bill Wyman looked uglier that Keith with his upright bass. The picture-perfect undertaker, and then there was Brian.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Brian Jones had already his own fan club inside the Stones’ fan club. They stood in awe right in front of him with, “We love you Brian” flags. He seemed to be there just for them, smiling maliciously under his blond helmet. As for looks, he was miles ahead of the others and everybody knew it, including himself. The Stones were his band then, he taught them the whole game. You could feel their resentment. Later on he teamed up with his alter ego, young model-actress Anita Pallenberg who dressed him up as a Nazi S.S. crushing a doll under his boot. Punk! … and all that during the summer of love! As he was loosing his pole position in the band, he took drugs to oblivion, hating the new pop direction. As the Jagger-Richards team of composers distanced themselves from the blues still he did beat them at their game, wearing the most outrageous costumes on and off stage, creating a pop persona only vaguely matched by Jimi Hendrix. Brian embodied the decadent swinging London as I imagined it. I loved every bit of exotic sounds that made the Stones so endearing because he could pick up a sitar, a harpsichord, a mellotron, a saxophone, a flute, tablas and play it on the spot. Such mystery, such magic and such beauty under these Garbo hats … on that night he played harp and his legendary white tear-shaped Vox guitar. Never ever will I forget Brian Jones: he rules in my house where two of his posters are still hanging.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Meanwhile, I created a huge stir in Don Rosey, the school magazine, by writing “Réveillez-vous, les temps changent,” (“Wake up, the times they are a-changin’”) an article that mocked the square adult mentality and introduced the young readers to the mind-blowing properties of L.S.D. The headmaster was not amused. The teachers hated my guts, and I ended up leaving in 1967 before they could expel me: I wanted to grow my hair long and wear red old English army jackets!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During wintertime, Radio Le Rosey moved its headquarters to Gstaad – it was like living in a postcard, a fairyland dominated by a building reminiscent of Cinderella’s castle in Disneyland, the Palace Hotel. So Much Us would play the Montesano dance in the hotel’s glitzy Maxim's ballroom. The Montesano Girls’ School would offer us a fantastic hunting ground – the girls would scream in hysteria while So Much Us played “Set Me Free” by the Kinks at the “Hi-Fi Club,” another function room also situated in the Palace. It became our rock ‘n’ roll mecca since The Roadrunners, a sensational Liverpool band, played there on a regular basis. There were a lot of fights, drinking Dubonnet, flirting and smoking fags in the woods – it was paradise!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I once danced with my dream girl, rebel actress Natalie Wood who had married a local jetsetter. I stepped on her lovely toes! She laughed and tried hard to make me feel comfortable.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the springtime, the whole school would move back to Rolle, a town between Lausanne and Geneva. Miguel, ever so hip, had met the coolest Swiss cat, Michel Rochaz, an authentic scene maker who had opened a club in the basement of the Chateau De Rolle – speaking of rock ‘n’ roll castles! My life as the rock ‘n’ roll aristocrat had found its foundation! Michel Rochaz would later shake Geneva, a city ever buried in its provincial Calvinism. He opened the Psychedelic Gold Bug Club in 1967 and the Bug Café in 1969. Right after a girls’ school ball, the band packed a truck driven by the older André Tièche and headed for the club in Rolle. They set it on fire. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It’s also when, in the spring, 1966, my career as an air guitarist ended. Jim Houghton, my roommate and rhythm guitarist for So Much Us, had wagered he could walk on top of the school's roof. Alas, rain had made the tiles slippery, and he fell twenty meters. He was a lucky boy, though; he ended up in the hospital with only a broken arm and a few bruises. Such is the tough life, emulating James Dean!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After Jim’s accident, Miguel flew into my room with nary a warning, scratched the Yardbirds E.P. into silence, and stood there with a daring look in his eyes. He said: “Listen up, Sandro! I’m lending you my guitar, I'm going to show you the three basic chords of the blues, and you’re going to have to learn how to play them fair enough by tomorrow. I'll come and check your progress by tomorrow evening. And if you don't fucking get going, I'll bust your face.” He grinned and added: “This is your big chance. Don't blow it!”</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was excited at the idea of replacing my roommate as rhythm guitarist, but I soon realized that becoming Brian Jones meant that I had to practice. The next evening I could only mumble to Miguel that my fingers were hurting. Half a second later, he had slammed me against the wall with his left arm while he pounded my face and stomach with his right fist. There was blood everywhere! “I'll give you until tomorrow,” he warned before he left, slamming the door shut.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Amazingly enough, the next evening I played those chords decently! He then proceeded to show me the minor chords, then barring chords, and at the end of two weeks I was rehearsing with So Much Us. I felt such a rush seeing my school friends watching me up there on that stage. With intense concentration, I played a white plastic body Eko, because I knew Miguel was watching me out of the corner of his eyes. But I could rock! I've never played a solo, but I own a swinging right hand, and that's all you need to play rhythm.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A month later, we got to play a wild house party, my first gig! The International School of Geneva opened for us, but they were outdated with their Shadows/Ventures repertoire. We proceeded to wipe them out: “You Really Got Me” – that was our opening number! I watched the girls' reaction -- they drooled, and they screamed with wild despair. Such a sexual high; we were a mod band, and we played fast and loud. Exhausted after the one hour set I crashed on a sofa.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A very proper girl wearing a long dress sat down next to me. We talked, we kissed, and after our second set, we made love. I lost my virginity in somebody else's living room. That's what I was promised if I hung out with Miguel. And it was a promise kept - cool is the rule!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not that I played really hot. In those blessed times you just had to carry an electric guitar to get laid. But I was now part of a band and nothing could top that! Or could it? So I thought until I witnessed The Yardbirds at Club 58 in Geneva. Psychedelia was starting to rear its head, and Jeff Beck epitomized the change. What these guys called a “rave up,” were just three blues chords worked out in a manic frenzy with distortion, a fuzz box and deafening feedback. “I'm A Man,” “I'm Not Talking,” “The Train Kept A Rollin:” The Yardbirds were mean, and they took no prisoners. Miguel stood one meter away from Jeff Beck throughout the show, mouth hanging agape. We snuck backstage, but at the sight of Beck eating, with his long greasy hair hanging in the spaghetti sauce, we froze. He just lifted his eyes from his supper and stared at us so ferociously we gave the chit chat a miss!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And things kept getting wilder. Miguel got So Much Us a gig at the Club 58! Jim, my roommate, had fully recovered from his fall and took back his position as rhythm guitarist. But to show his gratitude, Miguel, now a full fledged pal of mine, had a special plan for me. Something crazy, something unusual: that is, a guest appearance on stage. It was agreed that I'd be sitting somewhere at a table far away from the stage, drinking with six girls. Towards the end of a successful show, band members started shouting: “Hey Sandro, we want you to sing ‘I'm A Man’!” Going along with the ruse, I was to decline the offer and pretend to hide, so Miguel would order the girls: “Get him back here, girls!” So the chicks would grab me, ignoring my protests, carry me, and literally throw me on stage. Meanwhile, the band had started blasting the Muddy Waters’ riff. I just had to come on: “All you pretty women - standing in line - I can make love to you women- in a hour's time!” The girls screamed while I proceeded to take off my shirt and throw it to them, and they would rip it to shreds. Then I unzipped my pants -- but that's as far as it went. Phew!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I seized this life with a vengeance from then on and never regretted it. Tyni left us early to attend college in the U.S, so Miguel taught me a few bass lines and So Much Us played one last party at the home of Junior Alvarez, the son of the chief of police under Trujillo, the Santo Domingo dictator! He had also invited along a beatnik folk singer who introduced us to smoking hashish.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was so proud playing the Hofner violin bass. “Suzie Q” by Dale Hawkins has such a sexy bass line!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 1967, I left Le Rosey and moved to Cannes where some of my friends had enrolled at the Institut Chateaubriand, a school directed by a renegade Rosey teacher for renegade students. We could grow our hair long, wear English red military jackets, Jim (Roger) McGuinn granny glasses, and read Boris Vian and Jack Kerouac. Miguel remained my friend when I visited Switzerland, but my U.S. mates would soon disappear in Vietnam service, or succumbed to drug addiction. The rest joined the “squares,” and communications were cut. To them, I was an eccentric (to put it politely) who refused to grow up. Oh well. “Rock 'n' roll, deliver me from the days of old,” sang Chuck Berry; “Hope I die before get old,” sang The Who.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was going to school wearing long hair and British red army jackets

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, I smoked pot and drifted through the swingin’ sixties. In 1967, I became a disc jockey for two weeks in Gstaad. I would mix psychedelic tracks by The Seeds or Creem with rhythm ‘n’ blues hits such as “Hush” by Billy Joe Royal or “Sunny” by Bobby Hebb. The girls would dance The Jerk. I wore make-up and velvet ruffle shirts.</span></div>

He played fabulous guitar, playing numbers letter perfect with his teeth and behind his back, sporting his mother's Garbo hats and feather boas. He would get down on his knees while a terrifying feedback would electrify the audience. Soon we all became the hottest craze.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the early seventies, I met this tough Yugoslavian speedball named Tibor. He was a dope dealer who enjoyed getting high on his own supply! We became inseparable. I also connected with Babine, a fine bass player who dealt drugs too. They became my best friends, and so did L.S.D and cocaine. Both guys were in sharp contrast with the dull hippie type. They enjoyed life and a good laugh. They got me back on the acoustic guitar, and the three of us would jam all night, playing instrumental versions of speeded up Rolling Stones material.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hadn’t improved much from Miguel’s instruction, so I concentrated on rhythm while the other two blazed their solos. Tibor had this mandolin gypsy-style technique that sometimes produced wonders. For all our stoned clumsiness, great moments would happen. We missed Brian Jones, and Keith Richards was our idol. We dressed like him, and the identification became so intense that the miraculous occurred: Keith materialized in our life! After Exile on Main Street was completed in Keith’s villa on the Côte d'Azur, The Stones had to move on. Once again, the narcotics police was after them. So Claude Nobs, creator of the Montreux Jazz Festival and Atlantic Records executive, offered them both a studio and a shelter in Switzerland.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One night, Stanislas “Stash” Klossowski, son of Balthus, the great painter, and the percussionist with Vince Taylor, woke me up at five in the morning. He had just met a girlfriend of mine in a club, and she had told him about me and my friends. We were the hip thing in Geneva: We had all the drugs! A week later, Stash invited me to his mother's house by Lake Leman, and around midnight, a dark blue Bentley pulled up beneath the trees. Keith and Anita Pallenberg crawled out, The Chiffons blaring through the speakers. They both looked hungry and dangerous. I later introduced them to Tibor and Babine so they could provide them with heroin to which they had been addicted for years. I also introduced André for logistics, since he appeared to be a well organized character. Their children, Marlon and Angie, followed and soon, my future wife, Charuvan, and the mini entourage around Keith and Anita were in place to provide drugs and comfort in innocent Switzerland.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Babine seemed more together, and so we started hanging out at the Midnight Rambler club, looking for musicians who would agree to play raw rock ‘n’ roll in these rotten ‘70s where jazz rock fusion was invading the hippy scene. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We stood, gloomy, in dark corners of the club, waiting for a miracle to happen. One night these two guys talked to us. One looked like a blonde Viking, and I liked him. He was Pascal Gravante, a reformed junkie and a fabulous guitarist. He introduced his mate, a pale young freak who looked like Bill Wyman. He could hardly walk or talk, he was so strung out on pills and smack, but Pascal wanted to rescue him. He assured us that this guy, Didier Bonzon, was a great drummer, and that soon he would kick his drug habit! We pretended we believed him.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pierre Blattner, owner of the Midnight Rambler had named the club after my suggestion. He always wanted me to be part of it, sensing that my friendship with the Stones would shake things up. And it did! I asked him if I could use the small stage as a rehearsal spot, and he wisely agreed. Flashy groupie-type chicks started hanging out, and we paraded there, sometimes with Keith, Anita and Mick Jagger, sporting snakeskin boots, leopard skin pants, make up, lipstick, glitter, platform shoes, and satin jackets. Oh yeah, and dark large, oval shape shades à la Jumpin' Jack Flash, and rings, turquoise bracelets, fake jewelry by Ken Lane and a lot of silver. We were loud, flashy, and arrogant.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We called the new band Locomotive. I was driven: I was the lead singer, Pascal Gravante and Christian Roy played guitar, Didier Bonzon the drums, Babine on bass, and André Tièche, the voodoo man, knocked the congas and shook the tambourine and maracas. Locomotive did not perform much, but we made both a rock ‘n’ roll and a fashion statement. After a few concerts at the Midnight Rambler and an appearance at some art happening, we quit. I enjoyed our power version of “The Train Kept A Rollin’” and early clumsy compositions, but Pascal's sound was too hard rock for me, and Didier never kept his promise to quit heroin. In fact, he once fell asleep on a cymbal during a memorable performance!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I lived in the old town, not far from the Midnight Rambler. Once my flat got raided by the cops, but I hid my hash and cocaine in the cellar. From the ground floor, I heard angelic voices singing harmonies with a guitar and a piano. I suspected it was two gays living under my window. One day, I noticed one of them reading a Melody Maker piece on Keith Richards, who was then in Jamaica. While sipping coffee, I asked to borrow the paper, and that's how I met John Seilern. His boyfriend turned out to be Franz Tassilo, his brother! He told me how excited he was when he peeped through the keyhole to watch Keith climbing up the stairs to my flat. I told him I enjoyed his daily harmonies and that we should form a band based on three voices. He shook hands on that one, and in early 1974, and The Thunderbirds, named after my car, were born. I was happy to put André Tièche back on drums. We hired his brother Yves who played magnificent rock ‘n’ roll rhythm guitar. John Seilern sang backing vocals and played a minimalist Farfisa organ. Franz Tassilo, alias Francis, was the best musician altogether. He played fabulous Chuck Berry- style lead, and harmonized vocals with John. Babine stuck to his Danelectro bass, and I sang lead vocals and strummed an acoustic guitar. We still rehearsed at the Midnight Rambler, and once again, we became the house band. People were exposed to us because there was nowhere else hip to go around Geneva.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At this time, Keith lived in Villars where he rented a small chalet up in the mountains. He often came down to Geneva to shop with Anita and their son Marlon. He drove a 1954 yellow Dodge that André Tièche had advised him to buy. It went back up snowy roads on the mountain, packed with toys for the kids and drugs for the adults. The Thunderbirds rehearsed in the afternoon, so he'd come and hang out. I had a few spare guitars casually waiting. At some point, he would jump on one; plug it on and blitzkrieg on “Sweet Little Rock ‘n’ Roller” or “Honky Tonk Woman.” He was amused that we attempted to play reggae, calypso, Gram Parsons country stuff, you name it. I wrote a song about him: “Lookout Gipsy.” Sometimes he would show up late, and we'd be on stage. He'd grab that Fender and join us, never louder than the rest, but tough looking, riffing with such ease and authority that band and audience would hit the roof. Seventh heaven!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had to take a hard look and admit I had become a junkie just like Keith, Tibor, Babine and the rest. My wife and I flew to Bangkok where I overdosed on sleeping pills while attempting to go cold turkey. I landed in the hospital, sharing a room with an 80 year old opium addict tattooed from head to toe. I recovered surprisingly fast while Charuvan would bring me American rock ‘n’ roll magazines available in Thailand for the troops stationed in Vietnam. That’s how I got to read Creem, Rock Scene, the great Lester Bangs: They raved about a new punk scene in New York. To them, the Rolling Stones were dinosaurs, and they identified with The Flaming Groovies, The Stooges, The New York Dolls, The Velvet Underground, and The MC5. Their names were legendary already: The Ramones, Richard Hell & The Voidoids, The Heartbreakers, Television, Wayne County & The Backstreet Boys. I forgot my heroin addiction, fueled by enthusiasm and a desire to be part of all it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We flew to Vancouver where I saw David Bowie starring in the film The Man Who Fell To Earth. That same night, I asked Charuvan to cut my hair short. Then, going on to New York, I caught Suicide by chance. They were so outrageous and minimalist, it was as if they were playing in front of a crowd of zombies in some art gallery.</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back in Geneva, I buddied up to the owners of a new underground record shop called Dr. Boogie. The owner, Leo Zouridis, sold those vinyl records with a sense of authority. For example, if you asked him for a band that he considered uncool, he’d make you feel like shit! But his face lit up when I mentioned The Flaming Groovies, and names of labels like Stiff and Chiswick Records. And at that time, my favorite record was “Blank Generation” by Richard Hell & The Voidoids. My other musical inspiration came from pub rock like that played fast by Eddie & The Hot Rods, and “Heart Of The City” by Nick Lowe. Later on, I got into “Anarchy In The U.K.” by The Sex Pistols and “Help” by The Dammed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Leo also had drive and ambition. When the idea of putting together a band materialized, he quickly arranged the rehearsal place, the equipment, and the musicians. His friend Jean-François Piva (alias “B 52”) played bombastic bass guitar. Leo recruited Ralph Perez and Daniel Jean Renaud (“Dean Meat”) on guitars, and Christian Abdani on drums. All of these guys were good players with no attitude problems, except for Dean Meat who acted like a streetwise James Dean and played a Flying V – and too much so in the style of Hendrix for our taste at this moment in time. Still, he was a likable, flashy character. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One night, we were hanging out in this glorified club, the Backstage, which was actually the first real punk hangout: an empty cellar and the owner’s bedroom! Serge Witzig, a hustler who displayed a tacky brand of charm, slept between broken beer bottles and cigarette butts with his big-boobed secretary-looking mistress Raymonde Carlier. She was into Bowie, and she worked as a disc jockey with the help of the first punks in town, Poubelle, Dégueulon, Ordure, Zaki and other luminaries. We saw Electric Callas, a band from Lyon, one night. They played a set in the style of The Stooges that ended in a burnout. Their guitarist, Johnny Fame, was Raymonde’s brother. Later on, that big-titted DJ would create the fanzine Les Lolos De Lola, and she would front The Mo-dettes, an all-girl outfit that went to the top of the British Charts with their version of “Paint It Black.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One night, I got lucky. A hard rock band was blasting when I entered the Backstage. The guitarist, Patrick “Mama” Mahassen was extraordinary. Later on, Mama joined Krokus. But what floored me literally was a young sexy singer. Marie-Pierre had a powerful voice that never screamed pathetically like some heavy-metal singer. She had class, fragility, and emotion. After the show, I made a beeline for her, and we hit it off instantly. She too wanted to sing in a more radical band.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Leo named us The Slam. We had three lead singers, Marie-Pierre, Leo, and myself. We would take turns singing lead while the other two shouted background vocals. The rehearsals took place at La Praille, a former, dilapidated atomic shelter squatted by many bands. It was in such a wretched state, we had it all to ourselves. It was a rat hole that smelt like beer, piss, and cigarette butts. But it was home! And, yet, we still had to pay a rent!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before Jean-François Piva took over on the bass, we had this guy, Pepito, filling in for two months. He was into transcendental meditation, as was I. I had picked it up as a source of relaxation and to keep from relapsing back into heroin use. Leo and one of the owners of Dr. Boogie, Gerald Frutschi, joined our meditation team. At first, we were pretty disciplined. We meditated before our daily rehearsals.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two months later, we meditated with a lager in hand while blasting The Sex Pistols!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We got along fine. The idea was to play cutthroat rock ‘n’ roll as opposed to nonsensical hippy wanderings. We wore our hair back and wore leather jackets. We looked aggressive and arrogant. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our first gig was at the New Morning, the hippies’ hangout, of all places! We made quite an impression. A lot of those “cool” scruffs were shell-shocked, but Alain Fahri, the owner, loved us. He especially he loved Marie-Pierre when she sang a gutsy rendition of Patti Smith’s “Gloria.” She floored everybody. I had written an anthem for the band called “You Ain’t Bad Enough” which slammed the hippies! Leo closed the set with a scorching “Slow Death” by The Flaming Groovies. We played fast and loud. The three singers took the lead one after the other which created an energy burst at each new song. It left us elated! We felt powerful and cocky.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once we played for some festivities in the town center in Geneva. Marie-Pierre was shaking her ass, and the guys got horny. Leo’s girlfriend blew up: She climbed onstage and slapped Leo in the face before our audience! Talk about punks and losers! But that was Leo; he always got in a mess. For example, in the summer ’76, we booked ourselves into the Festival du Bois de la Bâtie, the mini, yearly Woodstock in Geneva. There were hippies everywhere, complete with joints, Afghani clothes, long smelly hair, intense feet and sandals! Then The Slam took the stage. We were nervous and rushed because the sound check was too slow and inefficient, and the crowd was too hostile. Leo blew up. He insulted the sound men. People started to boo and whistle. He told the hippies: “We’re not in Migros [Swiss supermarket chain], you buncha bums!”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We hadn’t yet played a note. We were wearing black leather and dark glasses. Leo continued to abuse one and all, and suddenly the sky went black as thousands of beer bottles came flying towards us onstage. They truly hated us! So I attempted to play a song: “I Can’t Stand Your Guts,” but Ralph and Jean-François dropped their guitars and fled backstage. Leo was furious and screamed: “Cowards, you’re fired!” More beer bottles rained down. Abdani abandoned the drum kit, so Leo fired him too. “You never liked me, anyway!” he shouted. I quit singing and ran for shelter with Marie-Pierre. Later on Leo, who by now had fired everybody, discovered that he himself had been fired from The Slam! What else? Our last concert had lasted 1 minute and 25 seconds: the epitome of punk! We never even finished the first song!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The next day, Ralph, Marie-Pierre and I held a powwow in some café. I told them that I was off to spend the summer in Thailand writing songs and that, come autumn, we’d be even more radical, and set up a new band. They agreed immediately.</span><br />

Back in Geneva, the scene had evolved. Now hanging out at the Midnight Rambler were young looking punks wearing black leather and safety pins. Poubelle (later a member of The Yodler Killers), Dégueulon, Ordure (later Discolokosst), Arnold (Teenage Girl From Auschwitz), and ten other bands were the nucleus of a brand new scene.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
We partied and drank tons of beer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Bastards went straight into rehearsals. Marie-Pierre had cut her locks and looked amazing with short hair, heavy makeup and black lipstick. She sang and moved more wildly than ever and drove everybody berserk. John Seilern did a brief stint with us, but it never went past three rehearsals. He had a disastrous affair with Marie-Pierre, and bad vibes followed. Ralph hated him because he was very close to Marie-Pierre, and because Ralph was also a much better musician. So John left to form Jack and the Rippers with his brother Francis, André Tièche, and Babine. They had that English pop punk sound while we stuck to the New York beatnik influence.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ralph took over the management and kept things loud and fast. He replaced Abdani on drums with a younger, nervous cat, Didier Dana. On second guitar, Dean Meat had to go. He objected to Ralph’s ideas of minimalism, so he was replaced, again by a younger fellow, Benjamin Garcia, who swore by Dick Wagner and Lou Reed (*editors note: he swore by Steve Hunter, who used to play with Dick Wagner, and Lou Reed). Dean Meat (Daniel Jean Renaud) would later move to San Francisco, play gigs with The Flamin' Groovies, and create The Kingsnakes with their drummer, Danny Mihm, after he also slipped from the Scelerates, Leo’s new band. So Ralph, Benjamin, Didier, Jean-François, Marie-Pierre and myself got on with business. Relationships in the band were relaxed. When Poubelle and the punk contingent came to rehearsals, they wanted to organize a concert. We printed a black and white poster; my brother took the picture. We looked blank, bored and menacing.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Punks had rented a cheap joint, Le Zofage, a room that belonged to the Zofingiens, a student fraternity. No Zofingiens showed up, but surprisingly, about sixty other people did. Some of them were students of mine because I taught French to Americans at the International School during daytime! That gig kept me away from heroin (for ten years).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Poubelle and the punk contingent Johnny Roland K. lamely sold a few beers, and when the glorified curtain opened up we lashed out with “Slow Death,” “Impossibilities,” “Schizo Terrorist,” and “Shaking Street” by The MC5, “Danger,” and “Gloria.” We mixed our songs with punk covers such as “You Make Me Cream In My Jeans” by Wayne County And The Backstreet Boys. We watched the audience’s opened-mouthed reaction. The sound attack, and the speed of our playing, and the interaction between Marie-Pierre and I (tough and sexy ) seemed to work! The musicians, led by Ralph, were tight and nervous. When I sang, Marie-Pierre went backstage to sip a beer and vice-versa. It kept us hot when we next stormed the stage!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The punks did the Pogo, banging into the rest of the bewildered audience who was confronted with this new dance for the first time. But the tension built up even faster when a biker gang, the Pharaohs, moved in and immediately started hitting people with billiard sticks. They had come to destroy punk!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At one point, I saw a student of mine, the only International School punk, being carried away on a stretcher with his skull cracked open! I stopped the concert and jumped at another Pharaoh who was about to kill somebody. He turned around, slammed my head against a concrete wall, and then I saw a fist the size of a baby’s face coming at me. He never completed the punch – a bloody miracle! I jumped back on stage and we kept on playing as if nothing had happened. One by one, the Pharaohs left the hall. We thought that the disruption was part of the excitement. We ended the evening gulping beers. Punks all the way and forever: The contingent was delighted and swore revenge against the Pharaohs. Indeed, that was the first of many episodes where the two tribes would collide.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As punk became fashionable, it became more and more uniform in the looks; for example, many people wore the mohawk hairstyle. As for The Bastards, we didn’t care much about fashion. Like Johnny Rotten, I wore rockabilly jackets; sometimes, I’d use a rhinestone bracelet that belonged to Johnny Thunders as a necklace. Marie-Pierre wore a Thai police hat I had bought in Bangkok. I plastered ‘VOID’ on my skull. Punk uniforms came from England, and we looked more like New Jersey bums.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Great concerts would follow through 1978. We played the Midnight Rambler, and a journalist from the Tribune De Genève showed up. We shocked him when Charuvan, my future wife, a Thai with blonde hair, came walking in, dragging along behind her, on a leash, Dégueulon; he was on all fours and wearing a spiked dog collar! Next day, we were on the front cover with myself posed bare-chested! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />(editors note: The article from Tribune De Geneve that Sandro was mentioning above has already appeared on the 17th of December 1977 in the press)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At this same time, new bands appeared: Jack & The Rippers, Leo and his band The Scelerates, Poubelle and The Yodler Killers, Arnold and Dr. Mengele with Teenage Girls From Auschwitz, Discolokosst, Technycolor with Leo and Fred Lazer, The Kingsnakes with Dean Meat, and Mimi Aguet and Danny Mihm from The Flaming Groovies! A scene was born, and the hippies were never seen in town again. Good riddance! We had won the battle. It was good times.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I went back to Thailand for Christmas. Blondie hit Bangkok by chance. They had just completed their first L.P. and toured Asia on their way to Japan where they were already big. I briefly met Debbie Harry, the punk Marilyn Monroe, and fell madly in love. Back in Geneva, The Bastards interrupted a rehearsal, (missing the opening by Talking Heads) to attend an early Ramones gig at the Salle Des Fête Des Eaux-Vives! Total blitzkrieg! Only fifty enlightened, blessed souls attended the concert.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The old hippie guard had one last stint when they recorded a live LP at the New Morning. They asked us, too, to pose for the picture that would go on the cover, but then they didn’t include us. We were radically different from the bands used for the album, and we had behaved arrogantly before, during and after show time.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I booked T.H.C. studios for a weekend, and we played six numbers live, three of them ending on up on The Bastards E.P. that only came out in 1979 after I had left the group to form The Rednecks. “Impossibilities” sung by Marie-Pierre is on the A-side, and its imperfections add to her volcanic performance. On the B-Side, I scream “Danger” and the both of us hurry-hurry-hurry on “Schizo Terrorist.” There were other tracks that were left off: “Loser,” “Apathy,” and “I Don’t Care.” All of the music and lyrics were written by yours truly and the two guitarists. So with these recordings, one can still hear The Bastards’ sound: raw, nervous, and taking no shit off anyone. That’s how it came down.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 1979, a punk kid, Zaki, financed the production of The Yodler Killers single. I gave him the masters to add The Bastards to his label. And because I had left the band (who had gone pop) nearly a year before this E.P. was released, it was a “posthumous” record for me.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Centre De Loisirs De Carouge was another regular battlefield between punks and the Pharaohs. We opened there for our guests from Zurich, Rudolph Dietrich’s Nasal Boys, and the chicks from Kleenex. We were a tough act to follow, believe me! I had a broken knee and used crutches on stage as I did my Gene Vincent bit. And I also used the crutches to hit a few insolent daredevils in the front row.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Zurich bands seemed very tame in terms of sound, speed, sex and anger. They seemed to subscribe to a more “arty” concept, and that’s clever in terms of durability. We were fuck all!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another highlight was opening for Robert Gordon, a rockabilly dope whose punk credibility was his debut as singer for The Tuff Darts in New York. But Link Wray was backing him on guitars and that was the big deal. Link was, and still is, looked upon as the arch rebel who had penned “Rumble” twenty years before. He descended upon us like one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse! After the show, he accepted my invitation to have a late supper, and he was the ultimate gentleman with black shades, leather pants, and long killer coat. He said he enjoyed The Bastards concert.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When invited by the T.V. channel Suisse Romande to close a variety show with a live set after a short film on the punk movement, we lashed out. I spilled a beer can over my head during “Schizo Terrorist” while Marie-Pierre mesmerized everybody with “Gloria.” Intense! Backstage, we crossed paths with Renaud, the French pseudo-poet rocker wearing a leather jacket: We spat on him. A glorious moment!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1977. Ah well, I didn’t go to heaven after all. I formed The Rednecks with Paul Zouridis from Banzai, Babine, and Francis Seilern from Jack & The Rippers. When his brother John came back from London, we called ourselves The Zero Heroes, and I rocked until 2002 with people who had started The Thunderbirds with me in 1972! We played with Iggy Pop on stage. We did studio work with David Bowie during the recording of the Never Let Me Down album and sang choruses on “Zeroes.” A song Bowie wrote about a band, perhaps? Perhaps – it was our band!?! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They were undoubtably the earliest Punk band from Geneva! That's for sure!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">According to Sandro,<b> The Slam</b> were formed by Sandro and Leo in late 1976. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sandro was born on December 30. 1948, and after his marriage to Charuvan they've spent every x-mass / new years eve holidays over in Thailand. Maybe he already went to Thailand a couple of months before, during summer of 1976 (they probably have!), however some ancient family tree from inside an old Geneva Punk fanzine reads that<b> The Slam</b> were formed in February 1977. After questioning Sandro about the different info from the old 'zine, Sandro still assured me that <b>The Slam</b> were definitely already formed by around November 1976, and that the date from the old fanzine is not correct!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They've only played a few gigs in 1977. I've failed to track down any dates for my concert listing of <b>The Slam</b>. Sandro's scrapbooks contain a lot of great live photos of <b>The Slam</b> playing at the New Morning in Geneva (mostly taken at the same gig, I think), but there are no flyers, posters, press clippings, or anything else from around this period known to exist.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"><b>INTERVIEW WITH SANDRO SURSOCK FROM SUPER PAS COOL #1 (March 1978)</b></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back in around February 1978 Sandro got interviewed by his old ex - bandmate <b>Leo Zouridis</b> for Leo's very own primitive (mostly handwritten) one shot fanzine <b>SUPER PAS COOL</b>! Leo used to be one of the main Punk fanzine editors from Geneva during the late '70s, along with <b>Alain Poubelle</b> of <b>The Yodler Killers</b>. <br /><b><br />GENEVE ROCK</b> used to be another one of Leo's fanzines. Leo has unfortunately died only around 2 years ago, just too bad, because his archive and knowledge used to be real huge. One hell of a great guy that never got honored properly for his work. Leo wasn't even interviewed by the maker (compiler) of the Swiss punk book <b>Hot Love</b>, a very big mistake, because Leo has done a million of important things, and his bands <b>The Scellerates</b>, and <b>Technycolor</b> will always stay amongst my absolute top favorite Swiss punk bands! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've once went to interview Leo at his place in Geneva (back in the '90s), where I've also got a chance to listen to some the<b> Scellerates</b> unreleased tapes. They were all killer raw '70s Punk tracks a bit like <b>The Guilty Razors</b>, but sung in french! Those tracks were never released because of conflicts between some of the bandmembers. I've never heard any greater still unreleased Swiss Punk tracks!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All tracks recorded on May 13. 1978 at THC Studio in Bernex (Geneva, Switzerland).</span><br />

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just 500 copies made, but they've sold poorely according to Sandro, who out of frustrustration, because the record sold so badly, seems to have littered around a hundred copies of them in some trashcan at the smelly rest rooms of an unknown Swiss highway restaurant towards the mid '80s!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Ultra rare private Swiss Beat LP from 1967! A very good Beat LP overall, including a couple of great tracks like <b>Hey Joe</b>, <b>Dandy</b>, <b>See See Rider </b>etc. The book Als Die Haare Länger Wurden states that there were only 100 copies of this LP made, but some of the ex - bandmembers I've talked to said that there were around 200 of them made, although they could not remember exactly anymore. This is one massively rare record for sure! The LP covers were handglued. There appears some spots of aged glue on most of the covers. Track listing: Side One: <b>Foot Tapper</b> / <b>This Hammer</b> / <b>See See Rider</b> / <b>Tico Tico</b> / <b>Hey Joe</b> / <b>Razzle Dazzle</b> // Side Two: <b>Dandy</b> / <b>Fall In Love</b> / <b>Zambesi</b> / <b>The Beat Goes On</b> / <b>Maid Marion's Theme</b> / <b>Dear Mrs. Applebee</b> / <b>Blue Suede Shoes</b>.

There were reportedly only around 200 copies of it ever pressed. One of the ultimate rarest Swiss 60s Beat LPs ever made! Most copies were signed by the bandmembers on the very neat backcover. Some of the bandmembers also used to play with <b>The Attacks</b>. A very good Beat LP including a couple of great Beat vocals and instrumentals: <b>The Rise And Fall Of Flingle Bunt</b> / <b>Over And Over</b> / <b>In The Mood</b> / <b>Take This Hammer</b> / <b>Bring It On Home To Me</b> / <b>Shadoogie</b> // <b>With A Little Help From My Friends</b> / <b>I Want You To Know</b> / <b>Nowhere Man</b> / <b>You Better Move On</b> / <b>Don't Ever Change</b> / <b>Main Theme</b></span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Fairily good Swiss Beat EP by an obscure French speaking band from the Jura that went to record, and release their private demo only EP through the Basel city located Ruba Beerli recording studio in 1965. The same small Ruba Beerli recording studio was also used by <b>Les Diables Rouges</b>, and <b>The Dynamites</b> amongst others. A couple of mostly used VG+ copies have turned up (mostly from ex bandmembers) during the past 5 years, which already makes it less rare than some of the others. This is still an ultra rare record to find in M-/M- condition as pictured! It contains two good instrumentals, one great english sung version of the Beat novelty track <b>Balla Balla</b>, plus one quite good French sung Beat original called <b>Tu Ne Merites Pas</b>. I don't think that they were able to speak english, or german at all, but then you certainly don't have to master the english language to sing "My baby baby balla balla" over and over again. The frontcover photo was taken by <b>Rudi Bertschi</b> in Basel city.</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Killer 2-sider! One of the very best Swiss Beat 45s ever made! Sexmaniac was thought to be a bit too risky back then. On the back cover of the super cool Picturesleeve you get the body of a girl stripped down to her undies with Sexmaniac implanted onto her belly. Only around 500 copies made. This is close to impossible to find 2nd hand locally inside Basel! Few unplayed Mint copies have turned up after the death of the label owner in the mid 80s. This is much more valuable than Vacation is.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">One of a kind acetate of their still unreleased 1963 debut Single! <b>Be
My Own</b> is a frantic rocking early beat number with guitar leads, it hails as the
first original song written by <b>The Dynamites</b> bandleader <b>Robert Wittner</b>. <b>Hello Daddy</b> is a completely unique, smoking <b>Johnny And
The Hurricans</b> styled instrumental arrangement of <b>Oh Mein Papa</b> with fantastic chord organ, guitar, and sax leads! Both sides were recorded live onto reel to reel (mono) inside the bands own practice room in 1963. I unfortunately don't own this one!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: With impossible to find original Picturesleeve! There were only around 50 copies of the original Picturesleeve made for the private use of the band members, and their families! Not even some of the closest friends of the band members have received a copy with Picture sleeve of this record! Watchout, there were around 200 fake full color photocopy bootlegs of the Picturesleeve made by some Swiss collectors throughout the 80s, 90s, and beyond! The original Picture sleeve was printed on a very thin, slightly glossy like paper, and the title on the frontcover should appear in true red as in my picture! Definitely the rarest 60s record from Basel, and guaranteed impossible to find with the genuine original Picturesleeve! It was recorded at the Ruba Beerli recording studio in Basel City. 1000 copies made, around 950 of them came sleeveless. I would value a sleeveless M- copy for at around $80 - $150.</span><br />

Salmen in Schlieren (nearby Zurich), and released shortly thereafter. <b>The
Dynamites</b> were asked to play 4 songs for the event of this concert. It was like
a regular show for them, with a real audience that went really wild. The applause on the <b>Sauterelles</b> track <b>Hongkong</b> was for some unknown
reasons faked. The LP was highlighted by <b>The Dynamites</b> super wild killer version of <b>I´m
Moving On</b>, that comes complete with snotty lead vocals courtesy of <b>Robert Sulzer</b>. This LP is virtually impossible

A super rare record that usually goes for at around $500 in played VG+ condition in France. This is very tough to locate in perfect superclean M-/M- condition! <b>Rolf Antener</b> left <b>The Dynamites</b> shortly after the release of the French EP, because of conflicts with the bandleader, to become the leadguitarist of <b>Les Sauterelles</b> from Zürich.

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: One of the many privately released 45s on the Swiss Philips label. The record was produced by, and paid for by <b>The Dynamites</b>. There were 2000 copies of it made. Each member of the band has received an equal amount of 500 copies to sell. The bandleader got rid of his 500 copies within a fairily short time, but the other members were possibly unable to sell them all. A good number of them were most likely trashed over the years! It was a pretty great Pop/Beat 2-sider! Quite different to their early recordings. Still a highly underrated gem. The band unfortunately split soon thereafter. The new receipt possibly didn't work as well as before anymore, or maybe it was the loss of Rolf and Peter that has finally paid it's toll. The highly talented bandleader <b>Robert Wittner</b> has stopped playing in bands since. Like, what a loss!!</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Ultra rare French sung Swiss Beat EP by a band from Fribourg! It was recorded at, and pressed through the famous Max Lussi recording studio in Basel! Few hundred copies made only. It would have been one virtually impossible *****record if not for a bigger find of still unplayed copies from around 20 years ago. It currently sells for 200 - 250 Swiss Franks inside Switzerland, which means that it could be worth more to some collectors from abroad. Something is a really great primitive Beat/Garage track that I'm sure all the cool French 60s Beat/Garage collectors would dig! A very nice record to own!</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Ultra rare Blues and Calypso EP by <b>Chester Gill</b> from Barbados! The A-Side is entitled <b>Chester Gill Sings The Blues</b>, while the B-Side reads <b>Chester Gill Sings Callypsos</b>. Maybe a bit out of place, but since most 60s collectors are also into Blues, I've decided to include this one too. It was his first private debut promo EP! Only around 100 copies came with Picturesleeve, and most of them were signed by Chester Gill on the innersleeve! Around 400 copies were issued sleeveless. The 4-star rarity grading would be only good for a perfect M-/M- copy with the rare original Picturesleeve! This is still easy to find sleeveless locally. I currently have around 3 sleeveless M- copies of it in stock to sell. The lazy <b>Chester Gill</b> is still active today. He has moved from Barbados to the UK in 1957, after touring Europe with a band from Trinidad, he finally moved to Basel in 1960. He was releasing a couple of other records too.</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Good organ Beat 2-sider by a band from a suburb of Basel called Liestal. They were made up by three members from Liestal, and one guy from Zürich. They've been practicing in their home town of Liestal, and were using a harmonica player from Basel on some occasions. This is the first english sung record by them. There were only around 500 copies of it pressed. Pictured is a super rare copy that was fully signed by the four bandmembers on the frontcover in 1966. Of course one signed mint condition copy like mine would be easily worth ***, because this i</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">s the only signed copy of it that I've ever seen!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: <b>Johnny And The Hurricanes</b> influenced EP from 1961 with cord organ sound and some great lead guitar by <b>Pitt Linder</b>'s band <b>Big Pitt And The Tornados</b>. Listed because most of the local 60s band from Basel used to start out with this type of music. Even <b>The Dynamites</b> were using a cord organ too! <b>Pitt Linder</b> was starting out as a Jazz musician with his brother before he got into rock and roll in ca. 1957! The earliest Single that I've found by his band the <b>Rock N Rollers</b> on the Tell label from Basel hails from ca. 1956/1957, and plays two absolutely great tittyshaker rock and roll instrumental versions of <b>Heartbreak Hotel </b>(by Elvis Presley) and <b>Minor Rock</b> (a very cool original track!) <b>Pitt Linder</b> used to have his own weekly show on the national radio from ca. 1956 till the 70s! He was recording hundreds if not thousands of bands for the radio, or for some bands, and record labels during his carreer. He is still recording at some recording studio in New Jersey, USA today, but mostly classical music. Pitt used to build stronger PA's, speakers, and amps for most of the local Beat bands from Basel in the 60s, so that they could play at bigger venues. He was also recording<b> The Sevens</b>, <b>The Red Devils</b>, <b>The Sheapes</b>, <b>The Dynamites</b>, and some others at the Landgasthof Riehen for the Layola label too. He was no less but the most important guy for the local 60s Beat bands from Basel. Linder has even put the PA for the officially first Swiss <b>Rolling Stones</b> concert at the Hallenstadium in Zurich in 1967, which says plenty enough I think!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: A Harmonica EP featuring two great Harmonica cuts on the flipside that remind me a bit of the very begining of 60s music, or let's say of "<b>Apache</b>" by <b>The Shadows</b>. Not really out of place because a couple of local Swiss Beat musicians such as <b>Robert Wittner</b> of <b>The Dynamites</b> were actually starting out with Harmonica bands. <b>The Miller's Band</b> has been a band courtesy of no less but the best Swiss Harmonica player of all times: the legendary <b>Walt Miller</b> from Basel! His first band The Chromatos were formed in 1943. His next band was called <b>The 3 Busketeers</b>. 78s from this early period seem to be impossible to find! He later on moved to USA to work with stars like<b> Mickey Rooney</b>, and the likes. During the mid 50s - early 60s he was always incorporating several rocking rock and roll numbers into his sets, and he usually had some great leadguitarists like<b> Pierre Cavall</b>i in his band too! I've just had to sneak in one of his many records into this discography. This EP seems to be extra rare. I suppose a micro-pressing of around 50 copies only! Could be his rarest one! The record is housed inside the strangest feeling type of a hand-made, and hand-laminated hardcover Picturesleeve I've ever came across! <b>Walt Miller</b> has unfortunately just recently passed away. R.i.p. Walt!<br /><br />Below is one truly fantastic early clip of <b>Walt Miller's Harmonica Group</b> that reportedly should hail from the 40s already (this is according to youtube). It was most likely filmed at some recording studio in Basel. Enjoy...</span><br />

It's much better than you would guess from the ugly Picturesleeve! It was recorded, and produced by Max Lussi at the famous long gone Max Lussi recording and mastering studio in Basel. Max Lussi was also responsible for the pressing of the record too. They were offering fairily cheap package deals for the recording, mastering, and pressing of the records through their studio.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: International Beat Festival has been a huge yearly international battle of the bands that was organized by the Star Club and held at the huge Plankten Und Plomen park in Hamburg. <b>The Red Devils</b> from Basel first went there to play in 1964 as the first Swiss band to ever play at the legendary Star Club in Hamburg! On Thursday, the 2nd September of 1965<b> The Red Devils</b> went by train to Hamburg, Germany to play for three days during the weekend of Friday, September 3. - Sunday, September 5. 1965 at the International Beat Festival for the 2nd time again! After the festival was over they were invited along with <b>The Phantom Brothers</b>, <b>The Beatmakers</b>, <b>Lord Heinz & The Young Ones</b>, <b>The Cavern Cats</b>, <b>The Shutters</b>, and <b>The Sheapes </b>(also from Basel, Switzerland) to play inside the legendary Star Club itself for the recording of this Beat Battle LP! Both cuts were recorded on Sunday, September 5th. 1965 live at the Star Club by some mobile recording studio that had been located inside a van on the outside of the club! It contains fantastic versions of <b>Gloria</b> and <b>Little By Little</b>! The LP was reissued back in ca. 1980, and also included with a whole 10 LP box made by Star Club Records in the late 70s!! It must have been a</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> big triumph for Swiss Beat music to have two 60s bands from Basel featured on this rare Star Club LP!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">BIG sensation! Hard to believe, but true! Here comes another all exclusive "<b>Down The Line</b>" - discovery! After <b>The Red Devils</b> bandleader <b>Michel Koeb</b> went visiting my blog, I've received a letter from him telling that there was still ONE record missing from my 60s Basel Beat discograpy! It may sound a bit unreal, and fantastic but this very LP has been kept a secret for over the past 45 years! NOBODY from Switzerland was ever noticing this LP! Michel got interviewed for "<b>Als Die Haare Laenger Wurden</b>" (the definite book about the 60s Beat bands from Basel,) and of course he didn't leave a word about the existance of this LP! </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Only one of the ex-bandmembers seems to still own a copy of it. It took me over one year to track down my copy of this Spanish LP on the internet. There also exists a German pressing of it on Intercord that I'm still after! I would pay very nicely for a copy of the German Intercord pressing, so please get in touch if you've got a German copy of the LP for sale, or trade.</span><br />

Somehow, the producers at Layola Records got hold of a copy of the classic <b>Rainbows</b> versions of the two tunes BEFORE they were released, and they were sure that the two songs would become hits. Layola Records was positive that The Sevens would possibly be landing the hit if they were going to have their versions released before <b>The Rainbows</b>. <b>The Rainbows</b> version became a hit, but <b>The Sevens</b> version of the single went almost unnoticed because of poor distribution. It was issued with two different labels. The bandname on the blue Layola labels was for some unknown reasons credited to <b>Les Pirates</b>, while the issue with red Orchestrola labels had the band name spelt correctly. </span><br />

The two <b>Dynamites</b> tracks have stayed unreleased because they've had cancelled their contract with Layola records in favour to sing up with Columbia records.

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: The International Beat Festival has been a huge yearly international battle of the bands that had been organized by the Star Club. It was held at the huge Plankten Und Plomen park in Hamburg. Two Beat bands from Basel, <b>The Sheapes</b> and <b>The Red Devils</b> went there to play in September 1965. After the festival was over <b>The Sheapes</b> were invited along with <b>The Phantom Brothers</b>, <b>The Beatmakers</b>, <b>Lord Heinz and The Young Ones</b>, <b>The Cavern Cats</b>, <b>The Shutters</b>, and <b>The Red Devils </b>(also from Basel) to play inside the legendary Star Club itself for the recording of this rare Beat Battle LP! Both cuts were recorded live at the Star Club by some mobile recording studio that was located inside a van on the outside of the club! The LP contains fantastic live versions of<b> </b><b>Black Cat</b> and <b>Exodus</b> by <b>The Sheapes</b>! The rare original LP was finally reissued back in ca. 1980, and also included with a whole 10 LP box made by Star Club Records in the late 70s! It must have been a</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> big triumph for Swiss Beat music to have no less but two 60s bands from Basel featured on this rare Star Club LP!</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Ultra rare private demo only Single from around 1967/1968 by some transplanted Italian kid singer from Alezio! His backing band I Nuovi Nevada were most likely made up by some local Swiss and Italian musicians from Basel. Musically not bad, but not really great either. It's played in a typical Italian beat/garage style, with brave lead vocals from the kid singer. There were only a few hundred copies made. Possibly around 200 - 300 copies only. However value wise I would not give it more than two stars, since because the record is not really great. The record should still be interesting enough for any Italian 60s collectors, 'cause as I've said before the record is not bad.</span><br />

It was recorded during the <b>Soul And Love</b> LP recording session (with the same lineup). This is one to avoid!</span><br />

The <b>Soul Hour</b> LP was recorded on April 16./17. 1968 at Tonstudio Max Lussi, in Basel, Switzerland. A splendid, superb world - class Soul LP featuring just the right ingredients. Tracks include: <b>Get Out Of My Life Woman</b>, <b>Summertime</b>, <b>Soultime</b>, <b>Funky Broadway</b>, <b>Midnight Hour</b>, <b>It's Allright</b>, <b>Willow Weep For Me</b>, <b>Hold On I'm Coming</b>.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Super rare and highly sought after Italian only doubledecker! The vocal track to <b>Preistoria Preistoria</b> was taped in Switzerland, while the backing track (also known as playback) has been recorded by some unknown British session guys in the UK. Barry's lead vocals on this particullar track seem to appear very slightly higher than usual, for the vocal track had been slightly speeded up by the record producers. <b>Preistoria Preistoria</b> is a loud late 60s soul freakbeat dancefloor killer, that seems to be particularily in demand amongst the UK Mod/Northern Soul crowd, while the flipside contained another release of perhaps Barry's coolest cut: The sitar freakbeat monster <b>I'll Wait For You</b>!</span></span><br />

parents, my three brothers, and one sister were all singers. I remember singing
at parties my mother had for $.50 when I was five or six years old. I started
playing the clarinet when I was in first grade, but switched to the baritone
horn in second grade (the baritone belonged to the school). In third grade, my
family moved from <st1:city w:st="on">Waukegan</st1:city>, <st1:state w:st="on">Illinois</st1:state>
to <st1:city w:st="on">North Chicago</st1:city> <st1:state w:st="on">Illinois</st1:state>,
and the band instructor in <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">North
Chicago</st1:place></st1:city> said I was better suited for the cornet, so I
started playing the cornet. I still have that cornet. I stayed with that
through high school, where I was the first chair soloist in the high school
band. My older brother (Glenn) played Clarinet and still sings. When my
brothers Glenn, Bob and I get together, our voices blend very well together
when we sing in harmony.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Bob, and I started <b>The Empires </b>probably in 1963, right before <b>The Beatles</b> came
out. Bob had been playing guitar for only seven months, but was becoming a
pretty good guitarist. I had gone to several dances where live local bands
performed and I thought that we could do that. The first incarnation of what
was to become <b>The Empires</b> included Bob on guitar, me on bass, and a not very
good drummer. I was lousy on bass guitar, and neither Bob nor I even knew how
to tune it correctly. I knew of another band that was breaking up. I don't
remember that band's name, but, I got in touch with the rhythm guitarist, <b>Tom
Nelson</b>, and he knew <b>Tim Wagner</b> who also played rhythm guitar and we had the
makings of the band that became <b>The Empires</b>.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

because he thought they might make fun of him because he thought he wasn't very
good on guitar yet. It turned out that Bob was better than they were, so he
became the lead guitarist. Tim switched to bass guitar, using my Danelctro
bass, and Bob used <b>Tim Wagner</b>'s Silvertone Guitar. We got <b>Bill Levak</b> to play
drums. He was in high school with my brother, and they also played Little
League baseball together. The five of us became<b> The Empires</b>.</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">JS: We helped start and played in a club circuit (that
we called the "teeny bop clubs") for three or four years. There were
several clubs located in the northern <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chicago</st1:place></st1:city>
suburbs, and they were all 21 and under clubs. They were owned by a guy named
<b>Don Manhardt</b>, and a <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chicago</st1:place></st1:city>
disc jockey named<b> Dex Card</b> (who later became our manager). Manhardt and Card ran
the Green Gorilla (Cicero), the <st1:street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">New
Place</st1:address></st1:street> (Algonquin), the Wild Goose (<st1:city w:st="on">Waukegan</st1:city>), the Wild Goose 2 (<st1:placetype w:st="on">Lake</st1:placetype>
<st1:placename w:st="on">Villa</st1:placename>), the Pink Panther (Deerfield),
and the Cave (<st1:place w:st="on">Libertyville</st1:place>). We also played at
the Cellar (Arlington Heights) and other <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chicago</st1:place></st1:city>
area clubs. There were a lot of clubs to play at in the <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chicago</st1:place></st1:city> suburbs. Plus, there were two late
night bars in <st1:placetype w:st="on">Park</st1:placetype> <st1:placetype w:st="on">City</st1:placetype> (which is right outside <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Waukegan</st1:city></st1:place>) such as the Mouse Trap (later
called the Night Gallery), and a club next door called Down The Street. (We
also played) the numerous bars and clubs in <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chicago</st1:place></st1:city>. We were booked maybe four nights a
week at those clubs, and then we played fairly often at a local girl's Catholic
high school named Holy Child. We also traveled to <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Wisconsin</st1:place></st1:state> and played in some bars up there.
Also, we rented out a local hall and held our own dances there. We were always
busy.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

late. Towards the end of the session, one of the engineers, a black guy, opened
up a window, threw out a water filled balloon, and yelled like Tarzan. It was
funny at the time.<br />

<span lang="EN-GB"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They played current music for the time and a lot of
favorites. Whenever I hear certain songs I still think of them: "<b>Midnight Hour</b>",
<b>My Girl</b>", "<b>Summer in the City</b>", "<b>Brown Eyed Girl</b>",
"<b>Hey Joe</b>" - and Motown was popular, <b>Van Morrison</b>, <b>The Young Rascals</b>… we're

<span lang="EN-GB"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everyone pretty much knew everyone. Most people danced
and a lot of kids went just to see what was goin' on or who they could pick-up. And even though I was 16 or 17 and they were
18 or 21 they were bigger than life. I
always felt special; honored to be allowed to be a part of the band - and of
course there was the "talk" about me (and a couple other girls) that
wasn't very flattering. But the relationship I had with Jim and the rest of the
band was as a friend. Good friends...and Jim and I are still friends. I think
that was a time of transition.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Funky Broadway and Boogaloo were very popular with
the white kids even though it was the blacks that made the dance. It was definitely the beginning of some
changes for blacks and whites (<b>Bobby Kennedy</b> and <b>Martin Luther King</b> were shot
during this period). A lot of mixed feelings
came out in the music, too; hippies influenced our dress and hair and I
remember radical changes in people. Pot
was becoming very popular. The bands
started out wearing jackets and ties and in two years time went very
"mod" or hippie, and short hair to long hair. Knee length skirts went to mini skirts.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

band seemed to be better known at first and I think they played at different places.
A few other bands played often, but weren't as strong and didn't create a real

<span lang="EN-GB"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A typical <b>Outspoken Blues</b> performance was a lot of
energy. They all tried to have light
shows - or so they thought. The guys all tried to make all the girls think they
were singing to them. They did sets,
took a few breaks. They had fun and we had fun.
Most people stayed to the end.
There was almost always a cop or two (usually the same ones), almost
always a fight or two, and someone puking.
The places were always smoke filled.
There were always groups of cliques - the popular kids, the surfers, the
greasers, the hippies, and the few of us who knew we were the really special
kids because we were "with the band."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The Empires</b>, <b>The Bryds</b>, <b>The Outspoken Blues</b>, <b>The Prod</b>, and<b> Hot Mama Silver</b>
were all "garage bands" that were formed, and began performing, in the 60's, or
early 70's! One common thread for the five groups was that either my younger
brother, <b>Robert A. Stanley</b> (Bob), or I, <b>James K. Stanley</b> (Jim), was a member of
the group.
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bob (Lead Guitar) and I started the group, <b>The Empires</b>, in 1963, along with
<b>Tom Nelson</b> (Rhythm Guitar) and <b>Tim Wagner</b> (Bass Guitar). We added <b>Bill Levak</b>
(Drums)! I left the group in early 1965 to return to college. </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The Empires</b> broke
up in late 1965, when one of the members of the group, <b>Tim Wagner</b>, decided to
join the Air Force rather then get drafted.
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two of the three remaining members of the group, <b>Bill Levak</b> (Drums) and <b>Tom
Nelson</b> (Rhythm Guitar), myself (Bass Guitar/Vocals), along with <b>Bill Kirchmeyer</b>
(Lead Guitar) and <b>Jim Korn</b> (Bass Guitar/Vocals), (from a group named <b>Beat
Incorporated</b>), then formed the<b> Outspoken Blues</b>. A short time later, <b>John
Pencak</b> (organ), joined our group, and <b>Tom Nelson</b> left the group.
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We then went into a recording studio in Chicago (Recordings Unlimited), and
recorded a demo record with "<b>You're A Better Man Than I</b>", and "<b>Not Right Now</b>"
being the two cuts. We had 900 copies of the record pressed on Orlyn Records. I
sang the vocals on "<b>You're A Better Man Than I</b>", and <b>Jim Korn</b> recorded the
vocals on "<b>Not Right Now</b>"! (<b>The Outspoken Blues</b>' 45 has since become a valuable
collector's item.) </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Jim Korn</b> was then drafted, and he was replaced by <b>Dave Luoma</b>.
The group eventually went through several personnel changes, including<b> Ray
Spoor</b>, and later <b>Jim Carmody</b>, on Drums, and <b>Steve Wypych</b> on Bass Guitar.
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>John Pencak</b> and myself, were the only individuals who were members
the whole time the group was in existence!</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><b>Glenn Holverson</b> was our original
Saxophone player. He was great. He was later replaced by <b>Rick Shultis</b>. <b>Chris
Christopherson</b> was added later on to play Trumpet when we had a small horn
section.
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Bob Stanley</b> left <b>The Empires</b> and joined <b>The Bryds</b>, as lead guitarist, a
group that had recorded two songs that he wrote for them ("<b>Your Lies</b>" and "<b>Why
Did You Have To Break My Heart</b>"). After <b>The Bryds</b> broke up, Bob became a
member of <b>The Outspoken Blues</b> for the summer of 1967, helping to create the
strongest vocal and instrumental version of the group.
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bob left the '<b>Blues</b> in the autumn of 1967, and reformed <b>The Bryds</b>, adding
an "e" to the group's name to become <b>The Brydes</b>. He added two trumpets and a
violin!
</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With the breakup of <b>The Outspoken Blues</b> in 1969, Jim again joined <b>Bill
Kirchmeyer</b> (along with <b>Herb Eimerman</b> (Bass Guitar/Vocals), <b>Gary Rosberg</b> (Organ)
and <b>Larry</b> (Butch) <b>Maynard</b> (Drums), in a group called <b>The Prod</b>. With the
eventual breakup of <b>The Prod</b> in 1971, <b>Herb Eimerman</b> joined<b> Bob Stanle</b>y to form <b>Hot Mama Silver</b>!</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><b>Jim Stanley</b> and <b>Bill Kirchmeyer</b> formed a 10 piece group
that played one time. The group featured piano, organ, two guitars, bass, drums,
and 3 female backup singers! <b>Bill Kirchmeyer</b> and <b>Bob Stanley</b> were the guitar
players for that performance at a high school prom!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My first band was <b>The Cavaliers,</b> a trio of myself, <b>Tim Wagner</b> (bass player for <b>The Empires</b>), and <b>Steve Kelly</b> on drums, later replaced by <b>Ray Trusky</b>. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We played instrumentals, stuff like<b> Wipeout</b>, or <b>Ghost Riders in the Sky</b>.</span><br />
<br />
<b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Cavaliers</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> played the annual talent show at our high school, Waukegan Township, in Waukegan, Illinois in March of 1963, and brought the house down! We were the first rock band to play at a school talent show! I think that maybe that is where Jim may have heard of Tim and I, and contacted us about joing up with Bob and him to form </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Empires</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">. </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Cavaliers</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> were only together for about a year.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Outspoken Blues</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> first gig was at the Hangout in Waukegan, Illinois, but I don't remember the date. probably spring of '66, as the last gig for</span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The Empires</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> was November of '65.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><b>Peter Rietmann</b> rates without a doubt as the leading Swiss Beat and Rock and Roll Bass player from the 60s! His playing seems to have been mainly based on feeling, technics, and skills.

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A brilliant musician with a great ear for cool sounds. While a lot of people back in the early 60s still had their doubts about the <b>Rolling Stones</b> slightly unpolished sound and look, <b>Peter Rietmann</b> was sure that the <b>Stones</b> were about to make it about as big as <b>The Beatles</b>. He was right about that!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Correct infos about <b>Peter Rietmann</b> are kinda hard to get, because he never really cared to talk so much about his old bands over and over again. He hardly ever gave any interviews at all.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He even refused to get interviewed by the makers of the books <b>Als Die Haare Länger Wurden</b>, and <b>Beat Pop Protest</b>, simply because he didn't want to talk about the past anymore, but also because he knew that only the bookmakers would be profiting in the end. They were never offering him any money for it either. Most of what has been written about Peter's musical past in recent years seems to be seriously wrong. I'll try to correct most of the errors with this blog entry by just adding the correct facts.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The interviews about him that I've seen were actually never really scratching the past! They've always mainly been interviews about his "present" bands only.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back in ca. early 1982 when I've first called Peter for some infos about his old bands <b>The Dynamites</b>, and <b>Les Sauterelles</b> on the phone, he invited me from the spot for a meeting / lenghty interview at his place. Since because I knew a lot about cool 60s music myself, we've immediately became friends too! He was a totally humble, down to earth kinda guy, with absolutely zero rock star attitudes at all! He's been just a music fan like myself too!</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peter was never collecting any of the records that he has played on, but he has bought a couple of records by some other cool bands that he liked. The first day when I've met him he was introducing me to the back then still brandnew <b>Buried Alive</b> 12" by the <b>Lyres</b> on Ace Of Hearts records as perhaps his top favorite current record! At this point I immediately knew that we would become friends, because the <b>Lyres</b> were one my favorite bands too. He had just recently gotten the record from <b>Tony Thomas</b>, a friend from Boston, Mass. that moved to Basel in around the late 70s. Tony then turned out to be the bandleader of a great local Basel Punk band called <b>Union</b>, and also of <b>The Code</b>, a very cool 60s influenced 80s pop punk rock and roll band from Basel including <b>Peter Rietmann</b>, that later on became the <b>Lombego Surfers</b>!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways, to get back to the story, <b>Peter Rietmann</b> has never kept any of the records that he has played on. He was generally using his personal copies of the records that were ever released by his bands to hand out as presents to some nice friends in the 60s already, this is unfortunately even including some now unfortunately long lost unreleased acetates by <b>The Dynamites</b>. One of the lost <b>Dynamites</b> acetates supposedly came with a great instrumental track called <b>Explosions</b>. So by the time when I first met him in ca. 1982, he was already long out of everything, including records, bandphotos, bandcards, tapes, etc. All that he had left were a couple of portraits of mostly himself and his very good old friend <b>Rolf Antener</b> of <b>The Dynamites</b>, and <b>Les Sauterelles</b>. He even gave them to me for present too! Some of them are now being displayed exclusively and for the very first time ever on this blog.</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Peter Rietmann</b> has never earned one cent from any of the records that he has played on, which as it turned out must have been quite a bit disapointing to him, because there were a couple of hits amongst them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He could never afford to live a fancy life, or to own something real luxury, especially not while I knew him during the early 80s until to his final death in August 2009.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Later on during the late 80s he got some very bad health problems from drinking, and then several years later after he finally got his drinking habbits halfways under control, his heavy cigarette smoking has finally also paid it's toll too. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He was unable to tour around Europe with <b>The Lombego Surfers</b> anymore thanks to some bad pain in his stomach, that's why he had to leave them towards the mid 90s.<br /><br />A major loss in his life must have been the death of his old friend <b>Rolf Antener</b> from <b>The Dynamites</b>, and <b>Les Sauterelles</b> who was suffering on lung-cancer, and had suddendly died (chocked) at night while asleep in the early 90s! Peter then was in and out of the hospital for the next couple of years. During this time he understandably quit giving interviews, possibly also to just keep his pains a secret to the outside world. <br /><br />He also refused to play at <b>Les Sauterelles</b> first reunion gig too, because he could not handle the idea to play as <b>Les Sauterelles</b> without <b>Rolf Antener</b> again.</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He would not even let some his closest friends know that he had cancer. The last couple of times when I saw him he said to me that he feels "old," and that the good times were long gone! I've never thought that only a couple of days later he would already be found death.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He was never asking me for any favours, except maybe for that <b>Koobas</b> 45 with French-only Picturesleeve that he was beggin' me for after he had seen it! A record which he has kept for until the rest of his life, because they were his personal favorite band from the 60s! He has seen them a couple of times live in 1967, while <b>The Koobas</b> were playing some dates at the Atlantis in Basel (he was even sharing the stage with them at some points too!), and has been friends of them ever since.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During the last couple of years before his death he was mostly into Tex-Mex music, and also <b>The Raunch Hands</b>! He was mentioning to me repeatedly that<b> The Raunch Hands</b> from New York City could have been a band that he would have liked to play with.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The following family tree of <b>Peter Rietmann</b> shows that he's been the bassplayer of literally all the best Swiss 60s beat bands at a time while the respective bands got to their at their absolute peak!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Peter Rietmann</b> was starting out as the bandleader of some unknown short living Beat band back while he was still taking his very first lessons from<b> The Dynamites</b> bandleader <b>Robert Wittner</b> in ca. March, or April 1964. This unknown short living band has to my knowledge only been existing inside the practice room. Bandmembers are unknown. <b>Move It</b>, an explosive super early Beat mover by <b>Cliff Richard And The Shadows</b> has been the very first song which Peter has ever learned to play. After the first couple of lessons, <b>Robert Wittner</b> could already feel Peter's talents and strenghts for the instrument. <b>Peter Rietmann</b> was then asked to join <b>The Dynamites</b> in April 1964 (to replace <b>Willy Lanz</b>) with whom he was later on recording several classic Swiss Beat records with, including the killer Columbia hit Single <b>Too Late</b> - a song that has made it onto #2 on the Swiss charts in 1965! The band was still called <b>The Red Dynamites</b> when he joined them.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Robert Wittner</b>: "<b>Peter Rietmann</b> and three other guys had formed a band. They've had already bought their instruments and amps, but were unable to play them. They've wanted to get some lessons from me. I've then learned their drummer, as well as their bassplayer, plus their lead guitarist, and their rhythm guitarist how to play their instruments. I've got paid 10 Swiss Franks from each member per hour, and was receiving 40 Swiss Franks altogether from the band per each hour! They've couldn't play their instruments at the begining, but two weeks later they were already able to play one song by <b>Cliff Richard And The Shadows</b>. When I've showed each one of them a couple of things, I've quickly realized Peter's incredible talents. Since because of the danger that our bassplayer could suddendly be sent to jail for a couple of months, but also because he was unable to progress on bass, and then last but not least of course because of <b>Peter Rietmann</b>'s awesome talents, I've asked him to join <b>The Dynamites</b>. Two weeks later, we've already played our first gig -a big Battle Of The Bands- with Rietmann at the Mustermesse in Basel where we've made the first price!"</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This band battle at the Mustermesse, Basel had been part of the first Pepsi Cola contest "Music Fuer Junge Leute Von Heute", a huge contest that had already been started back in Autumn 1963, and was lasting for way over half a year! The first big Pepsi Cola final round held on November 8. 1963, at Restaurant Tea-Room Globus, Basel came with <b>The Strangers</b>, <b>The Blizzards</b>, <b>Les Diables Rouges</b>, <b>Peter + Alex Felix</b>, <b>Retiwerous Gospel-Singers</b>, along with three Jazz music orchestras. The 2nd big final round from the same first Pepsi Cola contest was then held on January 24. 1964 at the same </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Restaurant Tea-Room Globus in Basel again, with the following nine contenders: <b>The Red Dynamites</b> (featuring <b>Willy Lanz</b> on Bass), <b>Retiwerous Gospel-Singers</b> (winners of the first round), <b>Fred Ropele Quintett</b> (they've made 2nd place on the first round), <b>The Strangers</b> (3rd place contestants from the first round), plus several Jazz orchestras. Of course, there were many other smaller battles before and in between the afforementioned two bigger final rounds! The third and last final round of the first Pepsi Cola contest from Basel that was held on April 27. 1964 at the fairily large Mustermesse rates as the very first gig of <b>The Red Dynamites</b> featuring <b>Peter Rietmann</b> on bass. <b>The Red Dynamites</b> ended up winning the Pepsi Cola band battle with an explosive coververson of the <b>Cliff Richard And The Shadows</b> track <b>Move it</b>. <br /><br />Sad fact: The whole band battle at the Mustermesse, Basel had been recorded onto reel to reel tape by <b>Bruno Kaeser</b>, the manager of <b>The Strangers</b>, but the recordings were stolen during the mid 80s by some unknown middle aged guy who had claimed that he was a reporter in search for material for a big upcomming story that has never happened!! Those recordings unfortunately seem to be lost forever. The same unknown person could have been responsible for the raid of several other local Basel 60s tape/photo/poster archives too. We would like to ask this unknown Swiss "reporter" from Basel at this point to immediately return all the tapes to me, or to their previous owners, because the tapes and material in question is undoubtably of enormous historical value, and could be used for release. Also, if you are an old Swiss 60s fan, or a bandmember of some Swiss 60s Beat/RnB band, with any tape, photo-, or poster- material to share, then please get in touch with me too, because your stuff could easily be good enough to use! I'm sure that we could work out something.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Upon winning the local Pepsi Cola battle at the Mustermesse, Basel, <b>The Red Dynamites</b> went to play the National Swiss Pepsi Cola contest end finals in Schaffhausen, where they've made the ungrateful 2nd place behind some typical Swiss yodeling band! First price would have been an international record contract in Germany. I suppose that the yodeling band was most likely arriving with several local friends amongst the jury members. It was definitely not very correct of the jury to put a yodeling band as the winners of a Pepsi Cola contest that originally went for under the slogan of "Music For Young People Of Today," because Swiss yodeling music is an old traditional Swiss music style that has been around forever (or at least since they were starting out to press the very first phonograph records some 100+ years ago) It must have been a tough competition for the Swiss Beat bands to play against all these wrongly placed traditional Gospel, Yodeling, and Jazz bands for sure. The contest should have been good for Swiss 60s Beat bands only.</span><br />

<span lang="DE-CH" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Mike Whitlock</b>: "We needed a new bass player so <b>Peter Rietmann</b>
(ex <b>The </b></span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dynamites</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">) joined our band. He said he

<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peter only stayed with<b> The Blue Sounds</b> for about two months. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When Peter got the offer from <b>The Slaves</b> manager Jaggi that he could now play with the legendary <b>Slaves</b>, he already left <b>The Blue Sounds</b> again.<b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Mike Whitlock</b>: "At The Hirschen in Zurich we met a band
from England, <b>The Big Wheel</b> (featuring <b>Ron Bryer</b> etc). Peter had already left by then. We then played with the
singer from <b>The </b></span><span lang="DE-CH"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Big Wheel</b> playing bass. </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I remember playing at a restaurant in Gstaad called The </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lantern that was owned by an egyptian
millionaress. We played there for 1 week, and each night she asked us to play late for her."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Mike Whitlock</b>: "A hungarian man asked if he could be our
manager and paid us weekly. He owed a Hotel/Restaurant
in a small town outside Zurich. In the town there was
a factory making stockings/tights employing many
young women I think. The owner also had a wine cellar in
Zurich. We </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">stayed there so many weeks and practised
and played.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Markus Althaus</b> (the guy at the top right in the photo) has been the very best and closest buddy of <b>Peter Rietmann</b> for years, and years, and years!

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The Slaves</b> were a legendary Austrian 60s Beat/RnB band from Vienna with an almost Punk attitude! Easily the best 60s band to ever come out of Austria!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By the time when <b>Peter Rietmann</b> joined them on Bass, <b>The Slaves</b> were already banned from most of the Swiss clubs, because of bad reputation. Some people have claimed that <b>The Slaves</b> gigs would sometime end up in fights between <b>The Slaves</b> lead singer (<b>Paul Fischer</b>), and somebody from the audience! I believe that the whole thing was probably just hyped to death by the press, along with a few other people!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Definitely the wildest band to EVER play Switzerland!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are still no photos of <b>Peter Rietmann</b> with <b>The Slaves</b> known up to this point, this is mainly because <b>The Slaves</b>' lineup with <b>Peter Rietmann</b> has only played some gigs abroad, mostly at the San Remo, in Vienna, Austria, where they've reportedly been booked for several months in a row, but also few gigs in Germany too!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Is there anybody from Austria, or Germany out there that could send me a photo <b>THE SLAVES</b> with <b>Peter Rietmann</b> in the band?? I would love to finally get one for my files!</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One day in ca. 1987/1988 I was asked by the maker of the French 80s garage 'zine <b>Tant Qu'Il Y Aura Du Rock</b> to recommend some modern local Swiss garage bands for possible inclusion on a future LP sampler called </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Tant Qu'il Y Aura Du Rock</b> on <b>Stop It Baby</b> Records. I then wrote back telling that my friends <b>The Lombego Surfers</b> from Basel would fit best. A couple of weeks later <b>The Lombego Surfers</b> were already recording one killer <b>Link Wray</b> styled instrumental called <b>Jungle Walk</b>, which I think could easily stand out as the best track from the LP.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've made one or two privately cut cassettes featuring some of my favorite 60s Surf and 50s Rock "N" Roll instrumentals for </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peter Rietmann</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> back when </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Lombego Surfers</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> were still called </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Code</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, a little bit later they were already starting to incorporate some great Surf instrumentals into their set. I've never asked them to play any Surf instrumentals, but I think they've just liked the style!</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a </span><b>Lombego Surfers</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> gig at the Hazyland in Basel back in ca. 1987/1988,</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><b>Dirk Bonsma</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> from Bern, Switzerland became their cover-, and poster-artist</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">. He still works with them today! <b>Dirk Bonsma</b> could have easily made a hundred <b>Lombego Surfers</b> posters, and record covers by now!</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> He has put some great gigs for them too!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After I've got them in touch with Dirk, I've helped putting a few shows for them together through my small booking agency.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Upon opening for</span><b> The Wylde Mammoths</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> from Sweden at the Sedel, Lucerne, </span><b>The Lombego Surfers</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> were offered a contract from the smart </span><b>Alec Von Tavel</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> of <b>Disctrade</b>/<b>Out Of Tune Records</b> for the production/release of their first LP "</span><b>At The Gates Of Graceland</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">." Alec once used to be a member of the pre-<b>TNT</b> Swiss Punk outfit <b>The Dogbodys</b> back in ca. 1978!</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The early setlist at the right includes several 60s covers, some great Surf instrumentals, plus a bunch of high energy originals in ca. the style of the <b>MC5</b>, <b>The Stooges</b>, <b>The Who</b>, and the likes. They've played the best and loudest versions of <b>Ramblin Rose</b> and <b>Helter Skelter</b> that I've ever heard! <b>The Lombego Surfers</b> have always played for a full house, like no other band from this town and period ever has! I could not think of a better local band to share the stage with. They were definitely leading back then, something that has not changed to this day, even though they are playing with a completely different lineup now.</span></div>

biggest hits with the song "Strange Little Girl." Now, what could <b>The
Stranglers</b> possibly have to do with a discography about an obscure 60's
group from the small country town of Gnesta in Sörmland, Sweden? Well, let's
go 20 years back in time.</span></center>

After <b>The Hot Dogs</b> folded in summer 1964, Hasse and Hangry rehearsed with <b>Lasse Ringel</b>, another former member of <b>The Hot Dogs</b>.</span></center>
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During this formative period, they rehearsed in <b>Peter Wärmling</b>'s livingroom, Peter being Hasse's brother. Lasse, who initially influenced Hasse and
Hangry, played with them only for a short time before he moved on to other
things. Together, Hasse, Hangry, and new member Bulan (<b>Sören Gustafsson</b>)
rehearsed a great deal, trying to sound like the then popular British combo <b>The Shadows</b> and the Swedish instrumental group, <b>The Spotnicks</b>. All they had
were old radio speakers as amplifiers, but they played on proper Fender guitars. By August 1964, they had accumulated all of the necessary, good sound
equipment: Vox AC-30 amplifiers, a Vox PA, and, most important, a new,
better place to rehearse!</span><br />

Soon afterwards, they teamed up with another Lasse (<b>Lars Kjellström</b>) who already had good contacts in the music business. </span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span">It was Lasse's idea to name the group "<b>The Jackie Fountains</b>". </span>As Lasse had been a sailor, he spoke English well. He was a good singer, who, luckily, knew the lyrics to a lot of English pop songs.<br />
<br />In September, 1964, <b>The Jackie Fountains</b> performed their first gig. They ditched the Shadows' repetoire in favour of covers of, amongst others, <b>Elvis,</b> <b>The Beatles</b>, <b>The Rolling Stones</b>,<b> Chuck Berry</b>, and<b> The Kinks</b>. At this time, the band bought its own white Volkswagen van and painted <b>THE JACKIE FOUNTAINS</b> on its sides in red print! A friend of the group, "<b>Janne Trötter</b>" (<b>Jan Carlson</b>), became their roadie and one man stagecrew. They became a staple of school dances and local social events. About this time, they decided to add a fifth member to the group, and recruited a fellow from Södertälje called Andy (<b>Anders Eklöv</b>).</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The band made their first
demos recordings in a home-studio owned and run by
Dr. <b>Sixten Albertus</b>. Dr Albertus, an
ear-nose-and-throat specialist, was a sound enthusiast if there ever was one! In 1963, he opened his first recording
studio, Biographen Grand, housed in a cellar
at Allhelgonagten 3, Stockholm. All of the original <b>Jackie
Fountains</b> demo recordings were made here. In 1965, he changed the studio (and
label)'s name to Euphonic and moved house to
Bellmasv 1, Sodertalje. Here he engineered all subsequent<b> Jackie
Fountains</b> records.<span class="Apple-style-span"><br /><br />Dr Albertus was quite the dedicated enthusiast! He engineered the groups' recordings on </span><span class="Apple-style-span">reel-to-reel tapes, and then issued them as official releases on Euphonic. He later mastered </span><span class="Apple-style-span">the vinyl releases. Euphonic folded in 1968, but as of this writing, Dr Albertus is alive </span><span class="Apple-style-span">and well!</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Soon after Lasse's departure, they found a new singer to replace him: The group's singer, <b>Bob Yell </b>(<b>Boris Jelovic</b>), was born in Zagreb, Croatia, Yugoslavia. Bob, a former member of the Yugoslavian pop group, <b>The Lonely Ones</b>, had studied international law after school, but he got fed up with it -- so off he went, hitch-hiking, his guitar slung over his shoulder. After stops in London, Paris,Germany, and Stockholm, he settled down in Gnesta where he joined <b>The Jackie Fountains</b>.</span></div>

Thrilled by the growing number of bands that epitomised this new sound -- Bob and Hasse added groups as diverse as<b> The Yardbirds</b> and <b>The Lovin' Spoonful </b>to their catalogue of revered musicians. Because of this influence on the band, later journalists wrote that <b>The </b><b>Jackie Fountains</b> were ahead of their time in amongst the pop art scene.</span></div>

For example, they played in the famous "Pråmen" ('The Old Barge') in the "Nalen," the district where rock 'n' roll began in Sweden. Some of the clubs, like the Club Bobbadilla and the Club Nette, were operated deep in the cellars of Stockholm's mediaeval Old Town district.

Swingberg</b>, an eccentric farmer from Sweden (he once paved his fields with concrete to create a private airstrip) recorded '<b>Spex + Pengar</b>,' a rambling spoken word album on Dollar Records. The owner of Dollar Records, <b>Åke Söhr</b>, rang <b>Peter Wärmling</b>, former manager of the group, and asked Peter if they could use some old <b>Jackie Fountains</b> tracks to pad Swingberg's chat. Wärmling agreed, and four previously unreleased tracks from 1966 were used. As a consequence, the Swingberg album cannot technically be classified as a spoken word album. This mix of word and song made for an unusual, if not unique, record for the time! Because of <b>The Jackie Fountains</b>' songs, this album is considered one of the rarest extant Swedish beat group records!</span></div>

Most of their shows lasted up to 4 or 5 hours -- mere one hour shows were rare! Hasse and Hangry jammed at length onstage, demonstrating their formidable improvisational skills to the people who came to see them in concert. Perhaps these lengthy, exhaustive sets began to take their toll on the group as a whole.and also, perhaps, they were getting older, and life began to draw them away from the group.although their interest in music continued.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hangry wanted to spend more and more time with his girlfriend, and this was the main reason he left <b>The Jackie Fountains</b>.

Cornwell</b> (the latter from England), he founded the group <b>Jonny Sox</b>.
After a few years, they moved to Guildford, England. At that time, 1974,
everyone was talking about a serial killer in America known as "the
Boston-Strangler". Struck by the'strangler' bit, they incorporated into their
new name, <b>The </b><b>Guildford Stranglers</b>. <b>Peter Wärmling</b> warned
them, "You'll never make it with a name like that!' Fortunately, Peter was
wrong! They shortly dropped 'Guildford' and, in 1975, became simply known as
"<b>The Stranglers</b>". After a year, <b>Hasse Wärmling</b> grew impatient that

they made a couple of appearances on Swedish TV. And then, in 1977, <b>The
Stranglers</b> made their record debut with '<b>IV Rattus Norvegicus</b>,' and
they became a great success. Nevertheless, <b>Hans </b><b>Wärmling</b>'s the
spirit was still with the group well into the 80's, because he'd written
the music to their big hit, '<b>Strange Little Girl</b>" back in the

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">JACKIE FOUNTAINS concert listing (by Peter Wärmling):</span><br />
<center style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The following original <b>Jackie Fountains</b> concert listing has been made by the band's manager, <b>Peter Wärmling</b>, in between September 1964 - May 1967. The listing only includes the concerts of the Jackie Fountains featuring Peter as their manager. It seems to be to about 99% complete. There are only around 5 early shows from the <b>Hot Dogs</b> period, as well as possibly around two <b>Jackie Fountains</b> gigs totally missing from the listings.<br />
<br />
The first sheet hails from the insert of the Feathered Apple LP, it includes all the 106 concerts on one page, along with the various lineups, and pay in Swedish Crowns (SEK). The original listings thereafter however feature some very valuable bonus infos, including the dates/lineups to at least four <b>Jackie Fountains</b> recording sessions.</span></center>

RR: How many shows have Hasse and Hangry played with the <b>Hot Dogs?</b> (There exists one live photo of the <b>Hot Dogs</b> from a gig at the Elektron in springtime 1964).<br />
PW: About 5 - 10 gigs as far as I can remember. Mostly in the small town Trosa.<br />
<br />
RR: Where was the last <b>Jackie Fountains</b> gig held at?<br />
PW: Town: Nykvarn, Locality: Nykvarn Grundskola. Date: 20. May 1967. They were not aware that this would be their last show.<br />
<br />
RR: Was Lasse receiving the same cut as the others too?<br />
PW: Every member in the <b>Jackie Fountains</b> got very little paid. Lasse did not get less than the others. Almost all the money from their gigs were needed to pay off for the amplifiers and the Volkswagen-bus. It was only in the last half-year that they got more money than enough for coffee and cigarettes from their gigs.<br />
<br />
RR: At what time was Bob starting to learn to play the Bass?<br />
PW: Not before he started to play with the <b>Jackie Fountains</b>. Hasse has taught him a lot as far as I can remember.<br />

At two nights <b>Jackie Fountains</b> were playing there. The newspaper wrote afterwards that "some kind of girl-look-a-like creatures with long hair and high-heel shoes" made so much noise that it was heard till Strömsholm (a village some 10 kilometers from the amusement-park) and that the police had to stop the noise already at 11 PM.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There were no less but eight different <b>Jackie Fountains</b> studio recordings sessions. The early studio recordings featuring <b>Lasse Kjellström</b> on lead vocals have got an explosive, raw beat/rnb/punk sound that is very similar to the <b>The Namelosers</b>. Later recordings with Bob are in a unique <b>Jackie Fountains</b> beat/rnb, mod-beat/rnb, and folk-beat style. <b>Your Love</b> is a killer Swedish beat/rnb raver with a super fast blistering leadguitar break by Hasse, and perhaps my favorite recording from the 2nd lineup with Bob.<br />
<br />
The earliest demos of the <b>Jackie Fountains</b> from 1965 were recorded by <b>Sixten Albertus</b> at a movie theatre in Södertälje called Biographen Grand. The owner, <b>Sixten Albertus</b> was also operating the Euphonic studio in Stockholm where all the <b>Jackie Fountains</b> tracks from <b>Ake Söhr</b>/<b>Lars E.

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A true Punk record by any means, and way ahead of it's times! You can listen to <b>Can't Tame Me</b> on <b>Back From The Grave</b> - Vol. 8! The four bandmembers were all students at Stout State University in Menomonie, Wisconsin. Both cuts were recorded in March 1966 at the <b>Big Sound</b> studio in Wausaw, Wisconsin, and then released in May of 1966.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the ultimate greatest 60s Punk 45s ever made, but also one of the rarest ones too -- this is especially if found with the original picture sleeve!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">COLLECTORS NOTE: Watchout, there are several fake, worthless bootleg copies of <b>The Benders</b> picture sleeves on the market!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first time that I've came across one undoubtably faked <b>Benders</b> picture sleeve has been in the early 90s, while I was visiting a friendly collector named <b>Claudio Menegatti</b> in Bologna, Italy. Claudio was complaining that he had spent a fortune on the record only because the famous private seller/collector from the U.S. had claimed that the ultra rare picture sleeve was guaranteed original. However, <b>The Benders</b> picture sleeve that Claudio had gotten was guaranteed nothing but a just worthless photocopy! Even the paper of it had been of a totally wrong brand! Claudio later on sold his collection to <b>Fulvio Beretta</b>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Despite the fake <b>Benders</b> picture sleeve purchased by Claudio, I also know of another guaranteed faked 2nd copy of the <b>Benders</b> picture sleeve that was made by some retired Swiss garage collector (called Thomas B.) that since has sold out of his collection too! This 2nd faked copy of <b>The Benders</b> picture sleeve came with a cracked (but still nicely playable) copy of the original 45 inside! Thomas B. was actually buying the cracked copy sleeveless from me, and then a couple of months later while we were still great friends, he asked me if I would lean him my original picture sleeve so that he could make a copy of it for himself only. I've couldn't see a problem with it back then, this is especially because I've thought that he would never be parting with his collection that easily, but he has! So if you ever come across one cracked copy of <b>The Benders</b> that comes with a very nicely photo copied (but not printed) picture sleeve that was made by using a similar (but definitely not correct) brand of paper, then chances are that it will turn out as the fake copy courtesy of Thomas B. I've seen it once, it was a nicely faked copy overall, but you could easily see that the triangle-like cutting of the top front cover opening was cut slighly inproperly by hand!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>WARNING!!</b>: I believe that there were even more faked copies of this always highly in demand picture sleeve made by various different collectors over the years! After I've went searching for <b>"BENDERS"</b> on the Popsike.com website of eBay end auction results, I've amazingly noticed some more kinda suspicious looking <b>Benders</b> picture sleeves that could eventually be fake too! The one that went for the highest seems to come with a suspicious looking top cover opening that could have been cut by hand, but also the paper of the two badly aged looking picture sleeves-only from Popsike.com (that came with NO records on the inside!) could actually easily be of a different brand too! Old, aged paper does not always guarantee that an eBay item will be original. Old aged paper from the 60s could still be findable with a bit of luck!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was lucky enough to buy my genuine <b>Benders</b> original picture sleeve from the always very reliable <b>Mark Trehus</b>, of Treehouse Records many moons ago!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It would be impossible to fake one original <b>Benders</b> PS correctly, because you won't be able to find the correct brand of paper anymore. Bootleg copies are therefore very easy to spot! An original <b>Benders</b> picture sleeve should look as follows:</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Please note that the paper from the original cover is so thin that even the printed text from the backcover will shine through! The cutting of the top frontcover opening seems to be pretty unique and hard to boot! Also the two flipbacks (that you can usually find on the back cover) should appear on the left/right as in my picture too!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now Dig the double wild liner notes from the back cover below!!!!!:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"The Bender Sound rocks and the guys do not like to play slow songs.. when they get on the stage they are molded into a unit that does nothing but wail." Wow!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The back cover text was made up by the four bandmembers. The fictious name and address of the manager was added for a joke to make it look more professional. They've never had a manager!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you are still unsure if your <b>Benders</b> picture sleeve could be original or not, then you may still compare it to the quality of the (also absolutely great) <b>Spacemen</b> - <b>Same Old Grind</b> / <b>Run For Your Life</b> picture sleeve from the same tiny <b>Big Sound</b> label, because the <b>Spacemen</b> original picture sleeve appears to be of the exact same brand (identical brand of paper, same cutting etc.)</span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Comments: One
of a kind acetate of long thought to be unreleased recordings! <b>Nani Hawaii</b> was definitely never released, and
is only available on this impossible to find one-of-a-kind acetate! I'm not sure what year it was made in (this is if it was recorded before, or after <b>Es Haengt Ein PFERDEHALFTER An Der Wand</b>, or even at around the same time..), and we'll probably never know, because all the bandmembers from this lineup are already death. I would suppose that it was recorded at around the same time, and that it was guaranteed pre-dating the following record below! It was cut and recorded at the famous Max Lussi Tonstudio, in Basel city. The matrice numbers read 1-R 1 for the A-side, as well as 1-R 2 for the B-side.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Comments: THE ultimate BEST Swiss 50s Rock and Roll record EVER made!! <b>The Chimpanzee Rock</b> is a killer Rockabilly/Hillbilly guitar - instrumental from 1957! It influenced by the lead guitar break from the song <b>Rock Around The Clock</b> by <b>Bill Haley And The Coments</b>, which used to be the opening tune from the powerfull, legendary 1955 feature movie <b>Blackboard Jungle</b> starring <b>Vic Morrow</b>, <b>Glenn Ford</b>, <b>Anne Francis</b>, etc. After they've heard the guitar break from <b>Rock Around The Clock</b> in the movie, they've decided to come up with their own unique Rock "N" Roll number! This one is technically easily as masterfully played as any of the very BEST U.S. Rockabilly/Hillbilly instrumentals from the 50s!!!!!</span></div>

They were using the drummer of <b>Cedric Dumont</b>'s band as session musician (for drummer) on their early records! <b>Cedric Dumont</b> used to be a famous Swiss composer / director that was using several top secretly kept aliases at the one and the same time. Dumont used to be the director of the main orchestra from the Swiss radio for several decades (working at Radio Basel in 1957). Dumont's orchestra would usually back up other musicians on Swiss Television shows, as well as on countless phonograph records too. 98% of Dumont's output used to be super square, and also totally mainstream, but he was using some great musicians (such as the legendary French guitarist <b>Marcel Bianchi</b>, or the equally famous Swiss top drummer <b>Pierre Favre</b>), and Dumont was even producing a couple of surprisingly good numbers under some of his aliases too! I'm still missing out of this German pressing. I've only got an empty cover for it! WANTED!!</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The Honolulu Girls</b> were an all-girl Hawaii band from Basel city, Switzerland featuring <b>Valerie "Vally" Claus</b> (Guitar), <b>Heidi Bürgin</b> (Hawaii-Guitar), <b>Hannelore Bürgin</b> (Bass), and <b>Rita Flubacher</b> (Ukulele).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The four girls got their lessons from <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b>. Vally was first learing to play the Ukulele from <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b> lead crooner <b>Max Zimmerli</b> very early, while she had still been in her pre teens. A couple of years later, sometime after the reforming of <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b> in 1955, she decided to drop the ukulele in favour to get guitar lessons from <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b> highly gifted lead guitarist <b>Werner Kunz</b>. Heidi got her Hawaii - Guitar lessons from <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b> band leader <b>Walter Roost</b>. It had been Walter's idea to bring the girls together. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The Honolulu Girls</b> could have been existing from possibly around ca. 1957(?), until December 1961, although it's NOT clear what year they have formed in, it definitely must have been sometime after 1955!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the split of The Honolulu Girls (they broke up because most of the girls got married) Vally joined an all-girl big band from Bad Nauheim, Germany called <b>Hanny's Dutch Sisters</b> in January of 1962, with whoom she stayed until the band finally called it a day in 1964! She then moved on to play with a brandnew <b>Beatles</b> influenced Beat band from Bad Nauheim, Germany called <b>Charly And His Dolls</b>. They've played mainly for the American G.I.'s that have been stationed in Germany.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the split of <b>Charly And His Dolls</b> in 1966, Vally continued to play with a German all girl 7-piece band named <b>The Blue Lady's</b> for one year, until they folded, and were reformed as <b>The Girls</b>. Vally then stayed with <b>The Girls</b> until 1975. Later on, towards the late '90s, Vally became an occasional member of <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b> (on rhythm guitar, and usually for one, or two set's only), with whoom she still plays with (whenever she likes to!) today.</span><br />

The issue pictured comes with very light blue labels, as well as with a completely different hardcover picture sleeve! The Titles were hand written by I think always the same person on some of the Beaton record covers only. Beaton has been one of many obscure Swiss "Club" labels from the 50s. It was only available by mailorder in exchange for a couple of Beaton tokens, and some cash! I believe that this could have been the first issue of it! There were only a very FEW hundred copies totally of this EP ever made!</span></div>

It sounds pretty close to <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b> versions, one can easily hear that they have learned their lessons from <b>The Hula Hawaiians</b>. One truly excellent record, especially for an all girl band! This record has been sent in as a free present by some very cool local Swiss rockabilly and country + western radio Dj from around the town of St. Gallen that has seen my blog! Thank you Rolf for the free record!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Comments: The Ruwiro Hawaiians from Zurich could rate as the 2nd great Swiss Hawaii band, after Jerry Thomas' band. This great unfortunately long forgotten pioneering Swiss Hawaii band was already able to reach some international success with a couple of their records in France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and possibly some other countries as well! </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Ruwiro Hawaiians were led by the great Swiss Hawaii- (Steel-) Guitar player Rolf Sidler. They were cutting mainly instrumental records only, and I personally like all of them great!<br /><br />There exists at least three pressings of their debut 78 from the Elite Record label. The first pressing pictured at the top left had the C.C. (Copyright Controll) info listed directly under the golden line in the center (labelcolor = dark red), while the 2nd pressing (pictured at the top right) came with slightly adjusted labels (labelcolor = a lighter dark red).

I'd probably suspect Senn on bass, Schmidli on the Ukulele, along with Rolf Sidler playing the lead Hawaii guitar, and I believe that the same lineup could have been used on all of their records from the Elite Record (Elite Special) label.<br /><br />Great mid tempo guitar instrumental on the A-Side, coupled with a slow sleeper for flip-side! </span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Comments: The slow German sung A-side is about average, but the English sung flip (On Linger Longer Island) is just brilliant, and swings in real cool Hawaiian style!<br /><br />The very best song by Lys Assia that I have ever heard, simply because it does NOT sound like the stuck up Edith Piaf type of crooner Lys Assia at all! Her vocals on this song are just great, and totally different to her usual style..</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />They've been releasing no less but fifty (50) different 78s in the Country and Western / Hillbilly style during the 2nd half of the '40s! Few of them are still easy to find today, others are very rare!<br /><br />Baby is easily one of my favorite tracks by them! It's a swinging Country and Western number featuring some typical Hawaii lead guitar work, that could have either been played by some unknown Swiss Hawaii guitarist, or by Paul Furrer himself! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Baby has got a lot of "Hit - appeal", it's almost a miracle that the Texas Duo were not able to land a huge "Hit - record" with this truly fabulous super catchy track.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They've been accompagned by Walter Baumgartner's band on both sides.<br /><br />Baby rates as the faster played track of the two, so the Decca label-infos are not very correct.<br /><br />Both tracks were penned by the very famous Swiss composer Artur Beul. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Baby is the only true Hawaiian blended track by the Texas Duo that I've heard so far.<br /><br />The Texas Duo story by Pesche Stähli (Rockin' 50s Club):<br /><a href="http://www.arturbeul.ch/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/texasduo.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.arturbeul.ch/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/texasduo.pdf</a></span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The stampers, labels, as well as possibly even the shellac (in it's raw form) were most likely sent in from Germany, but the record itself was guaranteed pressed in Switzerland! </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: green; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The label artwork seems to match exactly with the German issue.<br /><br />The matrice numbers read WS81035 A on the A-Side, as well as WS 81035 B on the flipside.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was about 1961, I was in a Christchurch music store Sedley Wells, buying my first electric guitar, a Commodore. I saw there a matching Commodore bass guitar which I commented on and the salesman "Jack" said to me that it was already sold to a guy by the name of Thain. Although I'd heard of him we'd never met. I was 16 at the time and Gary was 13 .I had left school and was working in the city as an office boy, and practicing with my first group <b>The Mustangs</b>. Our drummer was <b>Wayne Allen</b>, who in later years was to work with Gary, who by this time had left school and was working as a lineman.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">About two years later I started to go to a popular Christchurch dance club called the Caledonian. The resident band there were <b>The Strangers</b> which were <b>Gary Thain</b> on bass, his brother <b>Arthur Thain</b> on lead, <b>Graeme Ching</b> on rhythm, and <b>Dave Beattie</b>, drums. They were doing everything popular for the time, <b>The Beatles</b> to Rock ‘n Roll plus some instrumentals. <b>The Strangers</b> were very polished, had a great sound and a big following. I remember the compare of the club referring to Gary as the swinging bass player. Yes he was good, in fact very good. They were later joined by another drummer, <b>Peter Dawkins</b>, and later did some recording work releasing a single 45.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />After a very successful 2-3 years, <b>The Strangers</b> disbanded and Gary teamed up with <b>Paul Muggleston</b>'s band <b>The Secrets</b> with Paul on rhythm and vocals, and <b>Wayne Allen</b>, drums and vocals, and <b>Dereck Wright</b> on lead. They were <b>The Secrets</b> and in 1964 -1965 were the resident group for a top Christchurch club, The Plainsman, They played everything popular at the time from <b>Beatles</b> to <b>P.J. Proby</b>. They were also support artists for <b>Del Shannon</b> ,<b>The Searchers</b>, and <b>Peter and Gordon</b>, who toured New Zealand. After some months at the Plainsman, <b>The Secrets</b> went on a lengthy Tour of New Zealand. During this time, early 1965, I had started as lead guitarist for a new group, <b>The Others</b>. It was started by former <b>Strangers</b> drummer <b>Peter Dawkins</b>, and we became resident group along with <b>Les Street</b> and <b>The Alleys </b>at Christchurch's now number one night spot, “The Pride of Place.” We were support group for <b>Tom Jones</b> and <b>Hermans Hermits</b> when they toured New Zealand in 1965.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two to three months later <b>Les Street</b> and<b> The Alleys</b> disbanded so <b>The Secrets</b>, just arriving back on the scene in Christchurch, started with us at the Pride of Place as the replacement group. This is when I really got to know Gary. Gary was always full of life and laughing he had a great sense of humour and a passion for music. During our time playing at The Pride of Place, Gary and Paul from <b>The Secrets</b> decided that they wanted to go to England. Peter and I from<b> The Others</b> also decided we wanted to go. We had the perfect line up, bass, drums, rhythm and lead, so a new group was born, <b>Me and The Others</b>.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This group was key to Gary’s future success. Previously during the <b>Tom Jones</b> show, Peter and I were talking with <b>Mike Gee</b> lead guitarist from <b>The Squires</b> who were<b> Tom Jones</b>' show band. We told him we were heading for the UK and he gave us a note of introduction to <b>Tom Jones</b>’ agency in London. This would hopefully give us some sort of start. About February 1966 Gary and Paul left New Zealand two to three months ahead of Peter and I on a cruise liner, The Australis, bound for Southampton via Suez Canal, a four week trip.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gary and Paul arrived in Southampton one month later and decided to try find some part time work together whilst they waited for Peter and I to arrive, so they found their way to Newzealand house and saw that on the notice board that there was an add for horse riders at a place called Cowboy City in the North of England in a small town called Kirby Misperton, so for a laugh off they went to become members of the notorious Dalton Brothers. Cowboy City was a local attraction, there was a Shanty Town like a western movie set, where there was a daily show which drew a crowd of paying spectators. The Dalton Brothers were USA villains from the 1800's; during the show the gang would ride into town and rob the bank and there would be a shoot out. It was then decided for only Paul to become a part of this, as this wasn't for Gary. So a short while later Gary left Paul and went to a nearby town, Scarborough, and found his way into a local band, <b>Just Gigging Around</b>. I do not know who they were or where they played.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In May 1966 Peter and I, after spending four weeks on an Italian cruise liner, The Fairsky, arrived in Southampton. Paul came down from Kirby Misperton to pick us up in his Triumph Heraldand with our suitcases inside and Peter’s drums packed in a big cardboard box tied on the roof rack, we set off for the North of England to cowboy city so Paul could finish off his stint there, as he was on contract. Peter and I were there for one show which I must say was very authentic. That night we stayed in the bunk house then soon headed off for London where we found a house in Clapham Common. Gary arrived two weeks later from the North of England to join us, now we were ready to work on a repertoire.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The original plan was for us to play surf music which was very popular in the USA. The scene in the UK was not for that sort of music, so we went to a record shop on Portobello Road and bought a pile of newly released 45 records. The music on these records was becoming very popular and was about to dominate the music scene in the UK and USA. Some songs included "<b>You don't know like I know</b>" by <b>Sam and Dave</b>, "<b>My Girl</b>", "<b>Hold On I'm Coming</b>" etc. We then spent the next few weeks developing a repertoire of R&B plus Rock ‘n Roll, and the group was starting to get tighter. We contacted <b>Tom Jones</b>' agency as planned but didn't get any real reception as hoped.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One night Peter and I were walking around Soho and Peter, who was a real <b>Viv Prince</b> fan, spied a newspaper cutting stuck to the window of a Greek restaurant, the headline was "What's Viv up to?" Peter stopped to read this, the paper said that quote "Since <b>Viv Prince</b>, the former drummer of the famous ‘60s group <b>The Pretty Things </b>have disbanded, Viv is now hosting a Soho night club called "Knuckles". The club just happened to be in the basement of the Greek restaurant. The ironic thing about this is that prior to coming to the UK our group <b>The Others</b> had been on a tour of New Zealand’s South Island as a show band. The top of the bill was a top New Zealand artist <b>Tommy Adderley</b> and Tommy had been on the same show as <b>The Pretty Things</b> when they toured NZ in 1965. Tommy knowing that we were going to the UK said "If ever you bump into any of <b>The Pretty Things</b> give them Tommy's regards. So this is all we needed.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peter and I went down the stairs and Viv just happened to be at the door talking to the doorman. Peter asked "are you <b>Viv Prince</b>?" and Viv replied "Yes". Peter introduced us both and told him we were a group from New Zealand and that <b>Tommy Adderley</b> sends his regards.Viv looked quite blank until Tommy’s name was mentioned, then he shook both our hands and invited us in. We told him we had come as a group and were looking for work. Viv immediately asked if we wanted a job playing here for two weeks. Peter and I took up the offer. That night we stayed at the club until late and met <b>The Easybeats</b> from Australia, who had also just arrived in the UK; we had drinks and a good time together. At closing time Peter and I took Viv and <b>Johnny Banks</b>, the drummer from <b>The Mersybeats</b> home in our van.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We arrived at, Chelsea, just off Kings Road and Viv took us down to a basement flat to meet some friends of his that lived next door to him. Present there was <b>Jet Harris</b>, ex bassist for the UK group <b>The Shadows</b>, also there was Jet’s lady friend <b>Billie Davis</b>, who was also a well known ‘60s pop artist, and TV presenter. Jet was living in the room next to <b>Viv Prince</b>, but was now going to be moving , so his room would be vacant. The four of us vacated our Clapham Common address and Gary and Peter moved into Jet’s room. Paul and I found a room to live in directly across the road. We were now all living in Chelsea, which was where all the ‘60s action was in London. We played at Viv's club" Knuckles" for the next two weeks and now Paul was doubling on Vox Continental organ, this gave us an even bigger sound.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During this time at Knuckles, Viv’s patrons were anyone from <b>Pete Townsend</b> from <b>The Who</b> to <b>Mick Wiltshire</b> from the <b>New Vaudeville Band</b> who quite frequently sat in with us, and ex <b>Shadows</b> drummer<b> Tony Meehan</b>, who we spent some time with, plus many more well known pop artists. We were received very well and got invited back for another two weeks playing, and a short while later whilst at Knuckles we were asked if we would be interested in being a backing group for a new guy going on tour, <b>Engelbert Humperdink</b>, who at that time was unheard of. Peter said no thanks, not anyone with a name like that. That's one guy that made it big. True story. One night Pete met a guy in a pub in Soho called <b>Dave Backhouse</b>. Dave was with the Cana Variety Agency in London, and the next night or so we all wound up with Dave at the Marquee club. We were introduced to <b>Gary Farr and The T-Bones</b> drummer, who along with Dave introduced us to <b>Jack Fallon</b>, owner of Cana Variety Agency.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Shortly after, <b>Jack Fallon</b>, who had also had dealings with <b>The Beatles</b> and many other big names checked us out during an audition and was “knocked out with the sound”. He then got us some gigs on a contract basis covering the whole of the UK. We were on the road most of the time over the following months at many different clubs and dances. For instance, two weeks at the Blue Lagoon in Newquay, Cornwall, where our support band for the fortnight was a band called <b>The Reaction</b> (editors note: this group released two privately-pressed discs in 1966 as <b>Johny Quayle and The Reaction</b>) whose drummer was none other than <b>Roger Taylor</b>, later to find fame and fortune as part of <b>Queen</b>. I remember we had a great two weeks there with them. We also played places like Mr Smith’s club in Manchester, and The Beach Ballroom in Aberdeen where we played to a crowd of hundreds.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As we progressed the group got better and we were getting more gigs and met many artists. Gary was using a Gibson semi acoustic bass through a Vox amp with a 15 inch Vox speaker cabinet either side of the stage. This gave the group a big driving sound. One night we did a gig in Southampton, along with <b>The Graham Bond Organisation</b>. That was a very memorable night as Graham’s bassist and drummer were <b>Jack Bruce</b> and <b>Ginger Baker</b>, who eventually teamed up with <b>Eric Clapton</b> to form <b>Cream</b>.These names meant nothing to us at the time, but Gary, even with his own style of slap picking, was always taking notice of other bassists. I’m sure that night Gary would’ve got some pointers from Jack.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gary was only 18 years old at this stage and we all smoked cigarettes and had the odd drink. Gary had a passion for brandy mixed with Rose's lime on ice. One night we did a gig, a social night, on an airforce base, somewhere in the north and as the drinks were free we drank our fill of brandy and lime and when it came time to start playing we were all drunk and Gary completely disappeared. We went out to look for him but he was gone. We were looking for so long that the airmen, hungry for some music, picked up our instruments and started playing themselves. We later found Gary collapsed and asleep in a garden flower bed and almost completely out of sight. We didn't get paid that night and no wonder.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We toured all UK and Scotland and were constantly up and down the country playing more clubs than I could ever remember we then decided that we would look for work in Germany. We did auditions in the Marquee club, where we played to <b>Ian Smithers</b> who ran an agency, plus <b>Mickie Most</b> and <b>Spencer Davis</b>. And whilst there we did a couple of numbers backing <b>Jimmy Cliff</b>. We also played in the Whisky-A-Go-Go club in London where we were auditioned and then contracted by <b>Philip Neuman</b> of the PN Hit House, on Leopoldstrasse, in Schwarbing, Munich, the top club in Germany, for one month. <b>The Kinks</b> played there shortly before us.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Prior to setting off for Germany, we did a recording at Regent Sound studio in London, the song was <b>Love Is Not A Game</b>, the B side was to be recorded on our return. So off to Germany we went in our van, via Dover and Belgium. We lived in a luxury apartment, owned by Neuman, across the road from the club. We played seven nights a week, Gary's bass playing just got better and better and he became a driving force behind the band. We had a very successful month, and had a strong following; that apparently changed when we left.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The following month we secured another contract for four weeks in Stuttgart, playing on an American military base in a night club at Robinson Barracks. During our gig there I met an American guy, <b>Paul Wetterhahn</b>, who was a DJ on the armed forces radio station. One night Paul came to the club with a small portable Grundig tape recorder and recorded one of our sets. From then, even though a world apart, <b>Paul Wetterhahn</b>, who moved back to Chicago, became a life long friend. Anyway back to the Stuttgart story. After that month I decided that I wanted to return to New Zealand and <b>Paul Muggleston</b> wanted to go back to London. Prior to my departure back to NZ, I contacted Regent Sound and asked for a copy of <b>Love Is Not A Game</b>, which I was given on an acetate 45 record. This was about Febuary - March 1967, so Gary and Peter went back to Munich and Paul and I went back to London. Eventually I arrived back in New Zealand. <b>Paul Wetterhahn</b> sent me a copy of the tape set he recorded on his Grundig soon after, which at a later date I unfortunately recorded over the top of and wiped. How Dumb!!! I later received letters from both Peter and Gary, who had started another group in Munich with <b>Ed Carter</b>, a session guitarist with <b>The Beach Boys</b>. They called themselves <b>The New Nadir</b>, for some time they toured Germany France and Switzerland then later Gary joined<b> Keef Hartley</b>'s band and then went on to <b>Uriah Heep</b>.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">About 1973 Gary returned to New Zealand to see his family. He was interviewed on TV.but what happened to the rest of the band? Well Peter eventually went back to London and sat in with <b>Jimi Hendrix</b> on two gigs at the Speakeasy, a London night club, before returning to New Zealand about 1970 to became an award winning record producer, then later to Australia, where he produced Air Supply's early recordings, plus many other big name artists. Paul came back to New Zealand in 1972 to become a well known radio DJ and also played for a top band, <b>Just Us</b>. Later he went to live in Los Angeles where he was for years, running a very successful advertising agency from his yatch in Marina Del Rey. Paul M came back to New Zealand in 1992 for a reunion where he and I played at the Musician's club with <b>Wayne Allen</b> on drums and another old friend of Gary's on bass, <b>Pete Hansen</b>, almost <b>The Secrets</b> once more. We played to a capacity audience of ‘60s and ‘70s musicians who all knew Gary very well, and Paul paid tribute to Gary and the gig made the newspaper and national television.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Please let this article be a monument, and a memory to our dear friend Gary Thain, from myself, <b>Paul Muggleston</b>, and <b>Peter Dawkins</b> and all his fellow musician friends that were there at the Christchurch musicians club that night. We will never forget him. <b>Paul Muggleston</b> now currently lives and performs in Las Vegas, he is also a life long friend. I have also always kept in contact with my dear friend <b>Paul Wetterhahn</b>, who incidentally goes by the name of <b>Paul Drake</b> (his mum’s maiden name).

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Years ago I asked Paul for another copy of our tape but
he thought that it had been lost from water damage along with some other tapes,
so I took it for granted that our music had been lost forever. But an amazing
thing happened only just recently and 42 years later he discovered that he had
still had the tape put away safely elsewhere and sent me a copy. More recently
my wife Gwen and I spent some time in Sydney with my old mate <b>Pete
Dawkins</b> and his lovely wife Penny to celebrate his 60th birthday, and it was
great to catch up after all these years. And yes we had an adventure. And we've
often thought, wow! we almost nearly made it. The rest is history! Enjoy the
music!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In June 1966 I set out with <b>Dave Chapman</b> on a great adventure, one I am probably still on.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dave and I boarded the MV Fairsky to set out to the UK. As far as I know we were the pioneers in pop music becoming New Zealand’s first export. I had just turned nineteen. Dave was 21.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Members of my Christchurch based band were named <b>Me And The Others</b>.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was planned to meet the other two members in England as they had sailed a month before on the Australis. After six weeks of boredom, we arrived in Southampton, glad to be on terra firma once more.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Paul Muggelston</b>, our rhythm guitarist and singer, was there to meet us in his Triumph Herald. My drums were attached to the roof rack in the box they were packed in, and we sped off to London to the strains of Pirate Radio’s Caroline, playing the <b>Kinks</b> ‘<b>Waterloo Sunset</b>’ and <b>The Troggs</b> ‘<b>With A Girl Like You</b>’. It was a balmy summer's day, and all was well with the world.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After a brief stop over at my grandmother’s house in Ferrybridge, Yorkshire, we met up with the fourth member, <b>Gary Thain</b>, who had started playing with a band in Scarborough, a Yorkshire seaside holiday resort complete with a stony beach.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally we were together, and immediately we journeyed to London and secured a flat in Clapham. Then the job of finding work fell to me. I began by ringing every contact I had and this included a letter I had to <b>Chris Blackwell</b>, the legendary founder of Island Records. I had nursed the letter all the way from New Zealand and secured a meeting with the great man on the strength of it. He saw me at once, then read the letter with some interest.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“I am quite happy to give you an audition, but I have no idea who this letter is from”, he said sympathetically.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Embarrassed but relieved, I arranged for us to play for Chris, but alas he did not like the band. Later, we auditioned for Decca’s legendary <b>Dick Rowe</b>, whom we had hired the Marquee for. He arrived late, sat in the back for one song, and then left without a word. I justified it to the band, explaining that after all, he had turned down <b>The Beatles</b>. It was as tough as you would expect with every band we saw seeming to be better than <b>Me And The Others</b>. I was hanging out at the legendary ‘Ship Hotel’ on Wardour Street, when I struck gold, meeting a paraplegic agent named <b>Dave Backhouse</b>, who introduced me to his boss, <b>Jack Fallon</b> of Cana Variety. They promised us work but we would have to wait about six weeks.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As we walked back from the agency through Soho, we spotted a sign in a window advertising Knuckles Club, and mine host <b>Viv Prince</b>, former drummer for the legendary <b>Pretty Things</b>. I went in and introduced myself and instantly out came Viv’s scrapbook. It transpired that when the <b>Pretty Things</b> had toured New Zealand with <b>Sandie Shaw</b>, Viv had been deported after running on stage with a lighted newspaper and various other things that the police were reluctant to talk about at the time.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After Viv revelled in his memories, he gave us a gig over the next few weeks at the princely sum of eight pounds a night. This was far and away better than a kick in the teeth. It was not until we left that I discovered he was supposed to pay us twelve pounds a night. We played there until the Cana Variety work started. It was a great time with memories to dine out on for life. We even got a month’s booking at the PN Club in Munich, where we wooed the girls and played some of best sets. In 1966, into early 1967, the band decided to call it quits and two of the boys returned to New Zealand, with Gary and I staying behind and forming <b>The New Nadir </b>in Germany.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was a most exciting time to be a part of a growing music industry.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The New Nadir</b> was really the first band I could feel proud of. It was not that anything was wrong with <b>Me And The Others</b>, it was just that I had to work so hard to achieve what I thought should have come naturally. It was lucky that Gary and I decided to stick together because as fate would have it, <b>Ed Carter</b> came into the PN Club looking for a bass player and drummer he had heard about. After a month of quick rehearsals, we were signed by the Swiss agent <b>Freddie Whipfry</b>, and booked to appear at the Hotel Hirschen in Zurich where we played for three months. It was long hours, working from 12.00 midday until 12.00 midnight, with one hour on and one hour off. Somehow our attitude saved the day. We were determined to utilize the time to rehearse and eventually came up with a killer set featuring a mixture of originals and blues flavoured music mixed with Indian. We called it Raga Rock. It stemmed from<b> Ed Carter</b>’s love of Indian music having been through the <b>Ali Akbar Khan</b> school at Berkeley, California. He taught the basics to Gary and me during the hour off, and then we would attempt it in the hour on. From these sessions came the beautiful <b>Black Snow</b>, which typified our efforts.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After Zurich, we toured the German Canton of Switzerland and onto the PN Hit House in Saarbrucken for a month, where a group of fans hired a bus from Zurich to come and see us. We then hit Northern France playing Merlebach, Freyming and Saurgamine, before going on to Paris to play at the legendary Omnibus club.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We followed <b>Hendrix</b> and allegedly went down a lot better than his group.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was mid 1967 when we landed back in England feeling pretty damned good and confident. We had decided to give it three months of only playing around the key gigs in London, all but ignoring the North of England, even though that was where the money was. Unfortunately, the north was going through a period of soul music, which we knew was not for us.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Instead we became regulars at The Speakeasy, Blaises, Blades, and The Bag of Nails and of course we played The Marquee. During this time we had some memorable gigs and made a recording for Polydor before the band decided to call it quits and I returned home to New Zealand, about to start on a successful career as a record producer. The band stayed together for a few gigs with US drummer <b>Michael Kowalski</b>, before bowing out in early 1968. Gary joined up with <b>Keef Hartley</b> and then <b>Uriah Heep</b>, before his untimely death at 22. <b>Ed Carter</b> went back to California and joined <b>The Beach Boys</b> as backup for <b>Brian Wilson</b>, and subsequently played lead guitar on ‘<b>Bluebirds over the Mountain</b>.’</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Reflecting back we could have made it, but I feel that the internal pressure to succeed quickly was just too great. Still, it was a great time, and one I would not have changed for anything.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">John's dad had been the owner of one very first Radio shops from Luzern. Amongst the shop's inventary were also short-wave transmitter's too. John went to study in England as a teen, where he also became an electro engineer too. After his return to Switzerland during WW2 <b>John Lay</b> went on to develop, and sell short - wave transmitter's, along with hidden microphones to the cops, and the military. On January 6. 1942 <b>John Lay</b>'s first shop was finally opened at the Hirschengraben in Luzern. They've mainly been wholesaling, and retailing Hi-Fi electronics from that time on. John's son's have been taking care of their father's highly successful undertaking since after his passing in 1986.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Since because they've been distributing vinyl records on the side from 1962 on (labels like Bellaphon, and a few others were early on distributed by <b>John Lay</b>), they've decided to also get their own label going. Some of the 45s from the Layola label were ordered and paid for by the bands (to sell at gigs), others were either produced by Layola Records, or licenced from other labels. </span><br />

Giorgio helped producing a good number of the records, by assisting the recording engineers with his experience and ideas in the studio. On some tracks <b>GIORGIO MORODER</b> even took over the backing vocals part. All types of </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">sound effects were added by Giorgio to the songs, including gun shots, crashing of the waves, and the likes. Of course, later on towards the late 60s Giorgio was scoring big time with one Bubblegum - hit after the other, before he became</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> world famous as the undisputed king of dopey Synth - Disco music in the 70s. <b>GIORGIO MORODER</b> was using <b>THE 5 DORADOS</b> from Luzern, Switzerland to back him up for a while in the 60s. He has even played on some of <b>THE 5 DORADOS</b> recordings too, or was acting as their producer / arranger!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Amount of copies pressed is unknown in some cases, but they sure failed to sell many copies. Most of the better ones (but not all of them) were pressed in amounts of 500 copies, this is according to some of the ex bandmembers. A couple of them could have sold around 200 to 300 copies only (most of the early Layola releases seem to be more than scarce!) Possibly only <b>THE SEVENS</b> could have managed to sell over 500 copies of some of their 45s!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>THE SEVENS</b> reportedly sold more records for the Layola label than any other bands from the label have.

One of THE leading Swiss Beat bands from the mid 60s! A class of their own!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Tilt</b> by <b>THE 5 DORADOS</b> could have easily sold a 1000 copies too, but all of their remaining 45s from the Layola label seem to be most difficult to locate, and could have easily been pressed in amounts of around 300 to 500 copies only. Their LPs sold great though, especially The First Album of <b>THE 5 DORADOS</b>!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There were at least three different series of 45s, as well as another one for EPs:<br /><br />1. The Layola L 17 - 200 series</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. The Orchestrola L label series that counts from zero (=Swiss Jodeling music only)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. The Layola-Favorit series (=Swiss Jodeling, and Classical music only)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. The Layola LEP 500 series (=Jenka Polka, and Swiss Jodeling music only)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We will only be covering the L 17 - 200 series for this blog.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The records which are still missing from the Layola L 17 - 200 discography below, were guaranteed played in a different (Swiss Jodeling music, Classical, or Jazz) style. The following discography includes all the 60s Beat releases on Layola records known to the human world!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Thanks to long time, top Swiss psych / garage / folk LP dealer Armin Steiner of Klektic Fox Records from Luzern, for sending in a free copy of this dull 45 for my blog! <br /><br />Link to the fine Mr. Steiner's magic Klektic Fox Records cabinet:<br /><a href="http://www.k-fox.ch/">http://www.k-fox.ch/</a><br /><br />Armin is the guy that has bought all the unsold stock from the Layola label shortly after the death of John Lay in 1986. Later on the records were distributed by Armin to all the local Swiss collectors, and record dealers (privately, at record fairs, or via his record lists!) I've sold many of them myself during the 80s!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Then, after a while, Armin sudendly said that his supply had already gotten to small, and that he could not be offering any future copies anymore. Much later, right before I was starting out with this brandnew blog entry, I've found out that he still had some last copies of a few of the records left, so I've got them for our blog! If you'd like to place an order for any 45 from this blog that's marked as available for sale, then please direct your order by email to: </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="mailto:featheredapplerecords@balcab.ch">featheredapplerecords@balcab.ch</a></span></td></tr>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It was first released on the Dutch CNR label in December 1964, before it got waxed-up on Layola in early 1965.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>THE SCORPIONS</b> came from Manchester in the UK, but were highly successful especially in Holland, where they've been releasing a string of fantastic LPs, and 45s for the CNR label. <br /><br />This is ultra rare as a Swiss pressing, especially in nice condition!

However, s</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ince because Layola were actually pressing their records through Elite Special (the house label of the Swiss pressing plant Turicaphon AG), I would rather get to believe that t</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">he Elite Special label pressing with the false Layola Records ordering number could have been one rare, and pretty much unique label misprint!<br /><br />The 2nd pressing of this 45 came with much smaller letterings on the labels.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Hard to find Swiss pressing of UK classic! Most of the Swiss shops were selling the classic German pressing on the Bellaphon label of it. The German Bellaphon label was also distributed by Layola Records in Switzerland. This is the one and only Layola 45 that ever got licensed from the German Bellaphon label.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The German pressing on Bellaphon is very common, and easy to find inside Switzerland, but the Layola issue is super rare!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Both sides were recorded in 1964 already.</span><br />

The A-Side contains the same version of <b>All The Day</b> that was also used for <b>THE MODS</b> released 45 with the same ordering number below, except that <b>All The Day</b> seems to appear in slightly better soundquality on their actual released single.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Monster 1965 Swiss Beat / Garage doubledecker by <b>THE MODS</b> from Winterthur! </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The rarest and greatest released Swiss 60s record in the "Garage" style ever made!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They've put <b>SHEL TALMY</b> as for the song writter of the flipside <b>Nobody's Woman</b>, but there definitely exists no <b>SHEL TALMY</b> composition under that title. <b>Nobody's Woman</b> sounds as if <b>THE MODS</b> could have heard <b>THE KINKS</b> classic <b>Bald Headed Woman</b> (written by <b>SHEL TALMY</b>), but the text and music of <b>Nobody's Woman</b> does not match with the <b>SHEL TALMY</b> track at all! It sounds more like some unique answer record to <b>Bald Headed Woman</b>, for they've changed most of the text, and music. They've made one radical and totally unique arrangement of <b>THE KINKS</b> track so to say, but the song that they were were creating wasn't ever written by Talmy! <br /><br />Both sides have been recorded at some unknown Layola recording studio in Luzern.<br /><br />This could be the ultimate best, loudest and fastest played Swiss 60s Beat / Garage record ever made: <b>Roland</b> "<b>Roly</b>" <b>Schmid</b>'s lead guitar parts on<b> Nobody's Woman</b> are tremendous and amongst the very best lead guitar breaks to be ever heard on a Swiss 60s Beat record!<br /><br /><b>THE MODS</b> could be regarded as the "house band" of Roger Theiler's legendary "Africana", THE Beat-mecca of Winterthur, Switzerland, from the mid 60s, for they've played most of their gigs at the "Aff" ("AFF" = a short nickname for the Africana, which translates to "MONKEY"!)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>All The Day</b> / <b>Nobody's Woman</b> was first released with blue Layola labels. Some copies came with red Orchestrola labels. Both versions are nearly impossible to find, which is just amazing for the fact that it exists with two different labels. The original first blue labeled Layola version seems to be the rarer one of the two! <b>THE MODS</b> have not been aware of the red labeled Orchestrola pressing. The Orchestrola version usually turns up sleeveless (and I think with jukebox marks) only. Only FEW copies know of each version.<br /><br />Most of the copies have reportedly sold in Winterthur, however to find one copy of this record in Winterthur today seems to be one pretty much impossible undertaking!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Amount of copies pressed is unknown, but there could not have been too many of them made!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A true holy grail record for any serious Swiss Beat / Garage collectors, the likes of <b>THE CHATLES</b> (=they've made the rarest 60s Beat / Garage 45 from Germany), <b>I PHAFER</b> (from Italy), or even <b>THE KEGGS</b> (from Michigan, USA), etc.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Most of the copies that have survived appear in sleeveless VG- condition, or come with a beat up, torn G- looking Picture sleeve at best (few copies known). There are possibly no more than 3 to 5 nicely kept VG+ to M- copies of <b>THE MODS</b> 45 in collectors hands up to this point. Even the ex band members, and their familes don't have this 45 anymore, which of course makes it even rarer than it already is!</span></td></tr>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">L 17 - 212 <b>THE RED DEVILS</b> - Wooly Bully / Jenny Jenny</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Date Of Release: 1965</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Killer Swiss Beat / Garage version of the Penniman classic <b>Jenny Jenny</b> with frantic sax and lead guitar breaks by <b>THE RED DEVILS</b> from Basel city, Switzerland! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They were the first Swiss band to ever play at the legendary Star Club in Hamburg, Germany during the period of August 28. - August 30. 1964, while the band was still called <b>LES DIABLES ROUGES </b>(french for <b>THE RED DEVILS</b>).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>THE RED DEVILS</b> recording sessions for the Layola label took place on Tuesday, July 27. 1965 (whole day), as well as on Friday, July 30. 1965 (after 19:00 O'clock), at the Landgasthof Riehen, in Basel city with <b>Pitt Linder</b> for recording engineer, and possibly <b>Giorgio Moroder</b> as supervisor from the Layola label, although the bandmembers were never introduced to Pitt's helper, and since because Moroder has changed his look a lot after the mid 60s, but also because over 40 years have past since the recording session, Moroders presence in the studio could not be confirmed by the ex band members yet. Moroder could have been present in the studio during recording, but he didn't have any reasons to interact during, or after the recording of the songs. <b>THE RED DEVILS</b> songs were solely recorded by <b>Pitt Linder</b>, with some unknown producer from Layola Records sitting in a chair watching, and listening while the band was playing their songs. The following four songs were recorded during <b>THE RED DEVILS</b> recording sessions: <b>Wooly Bully</b>, <b>Jenny Jenny</b> (the two titles from this 45), as well as <b>Love To You</b> and <b>Little By Little</b> from the Various Artists LP: <b>THE BEAT BOMB</b> made by Layola Records in 1966. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A fantastic live band, with a killer guitar and sax sound, that could also deliver inside the recording studio just as well!!</span>
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Date Of Release: 1965</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Masterfully played Beat instrumentals like <b>The Shadows</b>, with chorus like backing vocals by<b> Giorgio Moroder</b> in the mix! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Both cuts were recorded by <b>Pitt Linder</b> featuring the assistance of <b>Giorgio Moroder</b> towards the end of July 1965 at the
Landgasthof Riehen, in Basel city, Switzerland. The book <b>Als Die Haare Länger Wurden</b> claims that this 45 was recorded in January 1966, which of course seems to be totally wrong!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Only 500 copies made, but you hardly ever find one of them for sale!</span>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Bad news: <b>THE SHEAPES</b>' bandleader <b>PETER BRUGGER</b> has unfortunately died on lung cancer towards the end of 2011 (r.i.p.). He used to be known as the <b>HANK MARVIN</b> from Basel!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>PETER BRUGGER</b> was starting out in 1959 to sing and play Rock "N" Roll live on stage in a duo together with a drummer. His first band <b>THE TORNADOS</b> have formed in 1961, and were named after one of Peter's early guitar instrumental original compositions, the "<b>Tornado-Rock</b>". They've played in ca. the style from <b>THE SHADOWS</b> to <b>JOHNNY AND THE HURRICANES</b>, and were winning one important band battle after the other. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Thanks to the overwhelming chart action from the British band <b>THE TORNADOS</b> (they've put the <b>JOE MEEK</b> produced 1961 monster hit record "<b>Telstar</b>" in orbit), <b>THE TORNADOS</b> from Basel city finally decided to change their name to <b>THE BLIZZARDS</b> in 1963. An excellent <b>SHADOWS</b> inspired Beat instrumental EP (limited to 200 copies) was privately produced and released by<b> THE BLIZZARDS</b> in December 1963. This EP rates the first officially released Swiss 60s Beat record from Basel ever made!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Early on in 1965 <b>THE BLIZZARDS</b> decided to play music for a living. Next to a couple of lineup changings, they've found out that there was already existing another well known Beat band called <b>THE BLIZZARDS</b>, obviously they've had to look for a new band name once again in order to avoid any possible future conflicts between the German 60s Beat band <b>THE BLIZZARDS </b>from the Star Club, and Fontana labels. A new band name called <b>THE SHEAPES</b> (incorrect english for SHAPES) was chosen for their final moniker towards ca. summer of 1965.<br /><br />Correct infos about <b>THE SHEAPES</b> recording history are kinda hard to get, also because the ex bandmembers have long forgotten about each and every detail! Fact is that the two cuts from the Layola 45 were already recorded as part of a planed Layola compilation LP of 60s Beat bands from Basel towards the end of June 1965, and that they should rate as <b>THE SHEAPES</b> debut recordings. I have no clue about it's date of release though! Both cuts have also made it onto Layola's <b>BEAT BOMB </b>LP in 1966 too.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>THE SHEAPES</b> 45 from the Eurex label (<b>Black Cat</b> / <b>Lotta Love For Tonight</b>) was recorded in August 1965, but it wasn't released until only almost half a year later in January 1966!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The <b>International Beat Festival </b>LP made by Star Club records from Germany was definitely recorded after the Eurex 45, namely on Sunday, September the 5th 1965.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Not to forget about their best one:<b> Black Cat</b> / <b>Rhine Beat</b> from the Columbia label, which had allegedly been recorded in February of 1966, and then released in around April 1966. I've never seen a Columbia advertisement for it (at least not inside POP magazine!), and I don't think that they were ever really promoting it either.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There still exists some more tracks by <b>THE SHEAPES </b>that hail from an unreleased 1966 German Bertelsmann 7" EP recording session. Those recordings are still unreleased to this day because of never ending conflicts between some of the band members, and that's also the main reason why <b>THE SHEAPES</b> finally folded in December 1966. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Later on in December 1966, <b>PETER BRUGGER</b> already continued to play with <b>BUZZ BENNETT</b>'s band <b>THE SEXTETT 63</b> for a while, this is until he finally decided to earn his money as a guitar teacher in the late 60s. He's been teaching guitarists at Music Hug in Basel for a long time during the 70s into the 80s, I think. Later on, and until the rest of his life he's been teaching them privately from at home!</span></td></tr>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Since after the unfortunate loss of <b>THE SEVENS</b> bandleader <b>Michel Bovay</b> (r.i.p.) back in April 2009 (he used to have bone cancer for quite a while), we've now also lost <b>THE SEVENS</b> main songwritter / singer and rhythm guitarist <b>Pierre Aebischer</b> (r.i.p.) towards the end of the year 2011 too.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Pierre Aebischer</b> used to be the masterbrain behind litterally all <b>THE SEVENS</b> tracks, including <b>Seven</b>, <b>In God I Trust</b>, <b>The Love Of A Bird</b>, <b>My Mother</b>, <b>Talk About Her</b>, <b>What Can I Do</b>, and <b>Be My Loving Baby</b>. We will be honoring Michel and Pierre's careers with some special blog entries later!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Both sides of this record were recorded on the 1st of August 1965 at the Landgasthof Riehen, in Basel city, Switzerland with </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pitt Linder</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> at the recording desk, and </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Giorgio Moroder</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> for producer. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Around 1000 or more copies of it have sold in the 60s. This is guaranteed one absolutely super rare, and much sought after record today, especially with the original picture sleeve still nicely intact!</span></td></tr>

first (it was released prior to the L 17-216 single!) <br /><br />One of their very best 2-siders! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>The Love Of A Bird</b> accidentally almost sounds a bit like <b>THE SEEDS</b>, with similar type of tempo changes, as well as with an almost <b>SEEDS</b> like guitar / organ sound! This, together with it's very clever lyrics, and snotty vocals, makes it an instant classic!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />They are the same recordings as on </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">THE SEVENS</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> LP, except that the 45 plays with a full, loud mono sound, whilst the LP contained stereo mixes of the two songs! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">No unplayed mint copies of this 45 have surfaced after the death of the label owner in 1986, which makes it one of their rarest ones! <br /><br />This Layola 45 by <b>THE SEVENS</b> is surely harder to find than any of the super rare Swiss Columbia 45s by <b>THE DYNAMITES</b>, and <b>LES SAUTERELLES</b> that are fetching top prices on eBay, but it usually goes for less! It could take you years to track down one copy of this record!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Pictured on the left is the original promo flyer that was made for the release of <b>THE SEVENS</b> first two 45s on the Layola label. The German written promo flyer reads that <b>Be My Loving Baby</b> / <b>The Love Of A Bird</b> was already ready to ship ("sofort lieferbar"), while <b>Seven</b> / <b>In God I Trust</b> was still in preparation ("in Vorbereitung"), which means that <b>Be My Loving Baby</b> should actually count as their true debut 45!</span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Nobody seems to know why they were releasing it as </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">LES PIRATES</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">, but </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">THE SEVENS</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> were originally starting out as </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">LES PIRATES</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> in 1964, before they've had to change their name to </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">THE SEVENS</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> in September 1965, to avoid conflicts with <b>Dany Logan</b>'s famous French band of the same name from the Bel Air label. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>THE SEVENS</b> were forced by the Layola label to record the two songs. <b>THE SEVENS</b> never wanted to record this single, since the two songs were regarded as fairly dull Beat noveltly compositions by the band, however they were recording them anyways! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Somehow the producers at Layola records got hold of a reel to reel tape copy of <b>THE RAINBOWS</b> classic versions of the two songs before they were even released as a 45 by CBS records in Germany. The producers at Layola were positive that <b>THE SEVENS</b> could eventually be landing the hit, if they were going to release the record first!<br /><b><br />THE SEVENS</b> 45 sold great, it even got licensed for release as a 7" on the Elite Special label in Germany, as well as in Switzerland (along with several appearances of the two <b>SEVENS</b> tracks on some dubious compilations in the mid 60s), but the small Layola label was still unable to nearly reach the enormous sales of <b>THE RAINBOWS</b> 7" from the mighty, world leading CBS label!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I believe that only the first 500 copies could have been issued with the blue Layola labels. A very tough record to locate, especially with the original Picture sleeve still in decent condition!</span></td></tr>

Sexmaniac implanted onto her belly. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>THE GAMBLERS</b> were an Austrian 60s Beat band from Hohenems that first came to play in Switzerland in 1966, where they've hooked up with a Swiss lead singer named <b>Hans</b> "<b>Hansi" Buch</b> (ex <b>TOM BOYS</b>, <b>MASCOTS</b>, and ex <b>THE</b> <b>MORLOCKS</b>) who also ended up as their song writter too. The A-Side was written by Hansi!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Both cuts were recorded sometime towards the end of 1966.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">L 17 - 239 <b>THE NEEDLES</b> - Mama Let Me Go / I Belong To Your Heart</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Date Of Release: 1966, or 1967</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Fabulous '66 Dutch Beat / Garage 45 by <b>THE NEEDLES</b> from Rotterdam. <b>THE NEEDLES</b> were consisting of five black guys from Dutch Guyana (a.k.a. Suriname,) in South America that have moved to Rotterdam, Holland while touring Europe in 1966. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Soundwise, it reminds me of some of the African Beat / Garage 45s from the 60s. The great A-Side would easily fit onto some cool international Beat / Garage comps.<br />
<br />
There were only 500 copies of this super rare Swiss-only 45 ever made!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It was issued in four (4) different Layola "International Top Hits" label sleeves at the very same time. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The first sleeve pictured at the right appears to be blue / light red / white on one side, and is red / light blue / white on the reverse. Two orange "BRAND NEW LAYOLA" - stickers (one for each side) were most likely added for promotional purposes on some copies only. Most of the copies were released without the rare stickers.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The 2nd sleeve at the right appears in red / light green / white on one side, and is green / light red / white on the back. Two orange Layola stickers were added on some rare copies only.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The 3rd sleeve pictured is yellow / pink / white on one side, while the same sleeve appears to be purple / yellow / white on the reverse. This version of the sleeve seems to be rarer than the others!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Date Of Release: 1966, or 1967</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: Highly danceable tittyshaker instrumental with a "Go-Go" Beat that cut's into the hand clapping parts of <b>THE ROUTERS</b> "<b>Let's Go</b>" for a few seconds here and there! T</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">he flipside is even much better: It contains a very cool Mod/RnB vocal track with a voice and organ sound similar to that of <b>GEORGIE FAME AND THE BLUE FLAMES</b>. Highly recommended for UK Mod / Northern Soul DJ's!<br /><br />Only around 500 copies made!<br /><br />It was released in at least three different labelsleeves at the very same time. Most of the copies were issued inside the first two Layola label sleeves pictured at the right. The promo only "Brand new Layola" stickers has been added onto a few copies from the 2nd labelsleeve at the right only! In addition to this, I've found 2 copies that came with the exact same label sleeve that <b>THE GAMBLERS</b> 45 <b>Little Girl</b> on Layola L 17 - 238 was issued in, but I believe that they were probably just using a couple of leftovers, from the otherwise totally unique <b>GAMBLERS</b> Layola label sleeve, on a few copies of the <b>GERRY HAYES</b> 45 only.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>GERRY HAYES</b> was releasing some more 45s on the German Paletten Records, and Vogue labels. Most people however will remember him for the track "<b>Go Go Girl</b>" that was released as a 7" under the band name of <b>GERRY HAYES AND THE DYNAMIC BRASS</b> for the German Cornet label in 1969.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Both cuts from this unique Swiss-only single were recorded in 1966, and have also appeared on the 1966 compilation LP "<b>IT'S ELLE TIME</b>" made by Pips Records (EBLP 2000)</span></td></tr>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Comments: German sung 45 from 1968 in the country and western style by this fairily well known big boobed Swiss singer! The A-Side is actually pretty great, I think, while the flipside plays a real slow country and western crooner with strings. <br /><br />I believe that it could have been her 2nd 45. She's been releasing her debut 45 on the usually risky German only Hippo label in 1967. The picture sleeve of the Hippo 45 came with a slightly risky cover shot (it puts her boobs totally in front) that hails from the same photo session as the photo from the back cover of her Layola 45. <br /><br />Musically it sounds as if it could have been recorded in 1967 already (this is in the typical 50s, to mid 60s c&w style), it wasn't released before 1968 though!<br /><br />After the release of this great 2nd 45, she became became very commercial.<br /><br />Few promo copies were issued with a special red "Brand new Layola" - sticker on back cover, but I like the uncensored, sticker free version of it better.<br /><br />It was released with black / silvery Layola labels.<br /><br />There were no more further 45s released in this series after this. It sold poorely thanks to bad distribution from the label.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />None of the ugly looking record covers above are any original, only the records on the inside of the faked record covers are. I have met the two guys from Zürich that have been responsible for all the above bootleg covers at some record fair in Zürich towards the late 90s (but I refused to buy any of the faked copies from them!)<br /><br />Most of the sleeveless copies of the MD Single seem to have stayed unsold. They've been stored away at Christian Tschernitsch's dad's place for many years, until the late 90s when they have finally sold to two slightly hippy looking punks from Zürich. I've originally wanted to obtain them myself. I've first met the label owner in the early 90s, and then I've tried for years to buy his unsold stock, but even after a couple of years of trying he still couldn't find any free time to finally clean out his dad's place. The two guys that have finally bought them knew that the records were rare, but they were not sure if they could sell them sleeveless. They also knew that the original record was issued inside some cardboard cover, but since they've had never seen a copy of the original sleeve, they've decided to just make up a completely new cover on their own. Those record sleeves of course are of absolutely NO collectors value at all, because they are not original! I would NOT value such a faked record for over the price of a sleeveless copy!</span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Groundbreaking split LP including 5 killer previously unreleased 1967 mod/freakbeat/rnb/garage studio tracks by the legendary <b>New Nadir</b> featuring <b>Ed Carter</b> from San Francisco, California on lead guitar and vocals (ex <b>Bruce Johnston</b>, pre <b>The Beach Boys</b>); <b>Gary Thain</b> from Christchurch, New Zealand on bass (pre <b>Champion Jack Dupree</b>, <b>Keef Hartley</b>, and <b>Uriah Heep</b>); plus <b>Peter Dawkins</b> also from Christchurch, New Zealand on drums (the greatest record producer from down under).
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The New Nadir</b> have played some celebrated clubs in London such as the Speakeasy where they gigged a few times with <b>Jimi Hendrix</b>, who was supposed to produce their first record for the UK Polydor label, however after <b>Ed Carter </b>had received the offer to join <b>The Beach Boys</b>, the band split and nothing was ever released.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The five tracks by <b>The New Nadir</b> on this LP were recorded on Monday, August 28th 1967, at a professional Swiss recording studio near Zurich, and capture them in great mood at their fantastic first recordings. The songs range from top mod/freakbeat/garage masterpieces (<b>TOMORROW</b>, as well as <b>I NEED HER NOW</b>), thru unique eastern influenced freakbeat tracks with raga riffs (<b>BLACK SNOW</b>), and onto the pop-art sound of <b>PEOPLE ARE CHANGING</b>, and the rambling rnb/freakbeat/garage guitar instrumental <b>WALKING</b>.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The LP is highlighted by the monster previously unreleased freakbeat track <b>LOVE IS NOT A GAME</b>, which was recorded by the pre-<b>New Nadir</b> outfit <b>Me And The Others</b> in November 1966, at Regent Sound Studios in London. This could easily hail as one of the greatest freakbeat tracks which was ever produced in the UK.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>KEY SELLING POINTS:
</b></span>
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Gary Thain played with his brother Arthur in the fabulous early 60s beat / garage band <b>The Strangers</b> with whom he released three excellent 45s between the years 1963 to 1965. Gary’s 2nd band <b>The Secrets</b> was nominated with the Loxene Golden Disc award for <b>IT’S YOU</b> (the <b>Searchers</b>-like top-deck of the killer garage track <b>YOU’RE WRONG</b>) in 1965.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the breakup of <b>The Secrets</b> in 1966, <b>Gary Thain</b> and <b>Paul Muggleston</b> (also from <b>The Secrets</b>) teamed up with <b>Peter Dawkins</b> and <b>Dave Chapman</b> to tour Europe with Peter’s band <b>Me And The Others</b>.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the breakup of <b>Me And The Others</b>, Gary, and Peter went on to form the legendary freakbeat/rnb/garage trio <b>The New Nadir</b> with <b>Ed Carter</b> from California on vocals, and guitar. The rest is history. <b>Ed Carter</b> then joined <b>The Beach Boys</b>, and Gary went on to play with <b>Champion Jack Dupree</b>, <b>Keef Hartley</b> and <b>Uriah Heep</b>.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. <b>Ed Carter</b> became the lead guitarist and bass player of <b>The Beach Boys</b> in 1968, with whom he still plays with today.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. <b>Peter Dawkins</b> has produced no less than 20 number one hit records, and over 50 gold and platinum albums during his producing career.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. <b>Ed Carter</b> began in 1963 to play guitar and bass with <b>The Shufflers</b>, a surf and rhythm and blues band from southern California featuring <b>Mike Kowalski</b> on drums, and <b>Bruce Johnston</b> on keyboards and guitar. In 1965 Johnston joined <b>The Beach Boys </b>to replace <b>Brian Wilson</b> at concerts. Three years later, in 1968, Carter and Kowalski became permanent members of <b>The Beach Boys</b> too.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. <b>Jimi Hendrix</b> was going to produce the first record of <b>The New Nadir </b>for the UK Polydor label, however after<b> Ed Carter</b> received the offer to join <b>The Beach Boys</b>, <b>The New Nadir</b> split and nothing was ever released.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. <b>Jimi Hendrix</b> shared the stage with <b>The New Nadir</b> several times during 1967 – 1968, and he jammed with them at the Speakeasy!
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7. <b>LOVE IS NOT A GAME</b> was never released, only because <b>Me And The Others</b> had no time to record a flipside for it, as they had to leave for some gigs in Germany, where they finally broke up in February of 1967.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8. The five songs by <b>The New Nadir</b> are all top notch 1967 freakbeat originals, written by <b>Ed Carter</b>, <b>Gary Thain</b>, and <b>Peter Dawkins</b>.
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">9. <b>The New Nadir</b> tracks have a killer analogue sound quality as they were cut DIRECTLY from the original master tapes!
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">10. <b>The New Nadir</b> tracks were all recorded as part of a package promotion deal which was put together by the famous Swiss 60s music magazine <b>Pop</b>, and the small Swiss <b>Eurex Records</b> label. The recording session was held at a professional Swiss recording studio that was located near Zurich.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">11. <b>The New Nadir</b> tracks on this LP were never released because the band didn’t want to end up on a small Swiss record label. They wanted their first record to be produced by <b>Jimi Hendrix</b> for <b>Polydor Records</b> in the UK.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">12. The LP comes with extensive liner notes written by <b>Peter Dawkins </b>and <b>Dave Chapman</b>.
</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">13. The LP cover shots of <b>Me And The Others</b> were taken in London for <b>Brian Epstein</b>’s agency.
