I saw this documentary as it was first broadcast. It was John Peel's 60th birthday in 1999 and the BBC (in UK) 'gave him' the channel BBC2 for the evening as a birthday present. He decided to devote it to The Captain, whom John had promoted heavily in UK. I'm relying on my ageing memory so could be wrong on this. It stands up as much today as it did then. It's over 52 years since I first saw Don and Magic Band at Liverpool Stadium. The first of numerous of his concerts that I went to. At the first gig I hadn't heard anything by him before the gig. I went because of articles about him in Melody Maker (as UK music paper) and I was curious. I was captivated from the first moment. Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band are to your ears what Salvador Dali is to your eyes. In days of woe, I just think of his music and then everything is fine............

ZALLY !!!

Enjoyed this on the whole but it was sorely lacking - no Savoy Brown, Chicken Shack or early Fleetwood Mac?

Dan Hamilton on guitar to the left, Judd Hamilton on guitar to the right, Tommy Reynolds on keyboards, and Joe Frank Carollo on drums. Two years after this recording, Judd left for London to work as an actor, while Dan, Joe Frank, and Tommy formed the band "Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds" with their first big hit "Don't Pull Your Love" in 1971 and their number one hit, written by Dan Hamilton, "Fallin' In Love" in 1975.❤

Those films 🎥 were hilarious even back then and I am 67! 😅

Wonder if Ms Kroger is still around?

That's me at 17 years old with my Hofner bass. Kenny, Gary and Chirs still alive and well.

Neil channeling a younger Fred Dinenage on 'Equestrian Statue.'

Cameraman needed to lay off the zoom. Great live performances from the Stones and the Who. No lip syncing BS

Listening to the rest of the band describe Alan Price walking off with all of the royalties for House of the Rising Sun is pretty sad. They all got cheated by Alan and their crooked manager. 😢

Ry Cooder is a natural comedian.

Thanks so much for this! I was never late home from school when these guys were on 'Do not adjust your set' a subversive weekly delight on kids TV that only ended when the presenter carelessly used an utterly vile word - genitalia.

I bought a re-release of the album in the '80s and still have it. Especially this song is truely a masterpiece! I think that the neo-psychedelic band The Rain Parade was influenced by this. Really a great upload! Thx man

R.I.P Mick Underwood on drums (1945-2024)

I worked in London in the mid 2000s and had the incredible luck of a few meetings with Jack Bruce and he was a lovely and charming bloke who was enlightening and insightful in a very earnest and unpretentious manner.

1e hit in deze muziek die ik hoorde ongeveer 1965. Nooit geëvenaard ❤❤❤ single afgespeeld op schoolfeestje Muzeval Slakkenhuis Emmen

Somebody's grandparents are saying that for me, or Great grand!

Per un pugno di canzoni è un film del 1966 diretto da José Luis Merino

Oh boy! I'm 67! I remember! 😅

It’s crazy that the singer is the same guy now playing Paul McCartney. I wonder how many people know that fact? This guy is a very good musician actor and vice impersonator.

I would love to find the lyrics to this song

Love the Yardbirds ❤ it’s a good thing Eric left, they got better, imagine how boring it would’ve been if the next 4 albums were blues covers…

Lulu.....Glasgow's finest.

Времена, когда ещё не успели создать фанеру. Было только живое исполнение, как могли, так и исполняли.

Twas brilliant then… an xl now

There was a time...once upon a time...when the young gathered 'n grooved. This is what it meant to be cool.

The last few seconds with the two children is one of the greatest feel good moments in cinema. The World will be safe in their hands.

tragically IRL all these characters became lead-addled q-"theorists" and maga supporters.

I love it. There's always someone for everyone at the right time if we keep going. If we keep the faith!

The singer looks like he's on crack.

Hippies never ruled anything. Those who ruled the world then are still ruling it now. I continue to think Peace and Love are better than War and Hate. But as long as the rulers continue to make more money from war than from peace, the hippie New Age will remain in the future.

Great! Beautiful! 2024

Tina went on to form TWO OF EACH playing gigs in London universities, American Airforce Basis, The Calafornia Ballroom,Dunstable performing with Pink Floyd, Bee Gees,Moody Blues, The Equals,Dave Berry and topped the bill a couple of times. Recorded Every Single Day and appeared on Juke Box Jury. Also at the opening of The Play Boy club in London. Tina then left the group who went on to be managed by Tony Hatch. d

Yesss. I always enjoy a Sandoz flavored snack.

This is an absolute gem. Alternative versions and all! First ever singing appearance by Dirk McQuickly at 14.00 too!?

Do I detect the influence of Davey Graham....?

Lol...

0:42 Who's here from SHAG: THE MOVIE?

Wonderful memories, wonderful times.

💛

So it’s true then, ? The stereotype of southern jazz players with strange little beards and sunglasses looking down their nose at mid and northern rock àn pop bands?something in the water down there

Southern folk can be a bit precious 😜

Terrific band mate love em all🇬🇧

i love themoodies but that record was awful!!!

Wavy Gray is still alive in 2024. Shocking

I'm amazed out many times the Beatles were on this show. I was just a little kid in those days. I didn't get to see the Beatles as much as I wanted to on American TV. I wish I could have.

Rich Fifield had a great voice. The Astronauts wouldn't have been as superb as they were without him. Great guitar player and an all-around handsome man, too. The full package of the group.

Blast from the past,,,
