Spooky Tooth live at the Olympia in Paris 1971 playing I am the Walrus and Wrong Time + Interview aired by the french TV-Show Pop 2, unfortunately not the whole songs
Spooky Tooth's studio version of I Am The Walrus is the best version ever done of that song IMHO. Grosvernor's searing guitar lead on that tune coupled with Gary Wrights Hammond organ build up in the backgroud is out of this world. As the saying goes kick ass.
Chris Stainton plays piano and organ on The last puff. John Hawken (ex-Renaissance) played live on this european tour (1970/1971). Great studio version for sure.
But very few have heard it or know of the group. But 50 year later ,it don't matter . What matters is Kelly Ripa, and breakfast at Beyonce and her imported cantaloupe.
Wow! What a rare recording to have. Thanks for posting! We lived in a house trailer out on the Ft Worth Hwy by a Drive Inn Movie ( just outside of Denton Texas) and listened to this song and Spooky Two for hours and hours. Walrus is their song.
Spooky Two, it was before Spooky Tooth I thought, but we named our Band after that great number from them Society's Child, which we played, and many others too, 69, that was, X🎵🎶❤️🎵🎶👍
Their second Record 'Two' was an epanomous, Epic recording for that tIme ,during a very vibrant, creative, and incredibly competitive year. They IMO, later opened the way for Bands, like Free & Bad Company / -Tooth ,though were their own 100%
Ceremony was their kryptonite, released as a Spooky Tooth LP in spite of the band's strong objections and desire to only be credited as session musicians. IMO, Harrison ranks right up there with Marriott and Rodgers as some of the greatest voices in British rock. And, Grosvenor, aka Ariel Bender's playing on Evil Woman is still classic.
@BGoldtone Only thing wrong there is Gary isn't on that album. He split right after the disaster that was "Ceremony". "The Last Puff" album is made up of covers precisely because Wright was no longer there to provide original material. It's also the reason that album is credited as "featuring Mike Harrison" since, at the time, he was the only one of the two lead singers left to "feature".
Ha a Spooky Tooth&Gary Wright az 1800-as években/a dagerotípiák idejében/éltek volna, még megérteném, hogy nincs 1 nyamvadt teljes koncerfelvételük! /nem audio! /azt találtam dögivel...
+tonewheelkev I think Keith Emerson left in late 66 or early 67 to form "The Nice". Mike Harrison and Gary Wright both played keyboards in Spooky Tooth
Tge Most underrated band of all time..
They are # 1 in my books
Mike Harrison has to have the best rock/blues voice of all time...
I'd say he and Steve Marriott were the best by far
You certainly know your music! Mike was 72 when he died, and was only a month younger than me!@@Da_Mick
Steve Thomson, on bass, was on Blues From Laurel Canyon, John Mayall and the Blues breakers album, with Mick Taylor. Great record.

Gary wasn't on last puff I'm pretty sure
Chris Stainton plays piano and organ on The last puff.
John Hawken (ex-Renaissance) played live on this european tour (1970/1971).

@@giba6349 Interesting because Hawken was the piano player on Tobacco Road by The Nashville Teens.
Thank you for this rare footage, love this band since I was a teenager in the beginning golden 70s !
Mike Harrisson....great voice.......and the WALRUS .....superb
Thanks for uploading this. Spooky Tooth live performances on film are as rare as hens' teeth

Encontrar una grabación completa de este concierto, para mí sería una de mis rarezas más preciadas.
My # 1 choice of band.... Among the top 10....
Sad, RIP Mike Harrison and Mike Kelly....
its spelled Kellie he was very angry when it was wrong

SO Under Appreciated in The U.S. Such a great band in and out of the studio I only saw them once but it’ solidified how amazing they were
I saw them in Brighton. Good memories...
UMA DAS GRANDES BANDAS DO FINAL DOS 60 INICIO DOS 70, JUNTAMENTE COM HUMBLE PIE. PENA QUE NAO TIVERAM O DEVIDO RECONHECIMENTO

Toute une époque!!!!!!!!!!

Smokin' solo and rhythm section on Walrus...

Luther at his maddest best !
By '72 Spooky Tooth began to lose their spark......"The Last Puff" indeed...
"I Am the Walrus" rivals anything they had ever done.
Awesome ! Great Quality too !
Yep they were da bomb nobody could Evah match Luther's Shredding guitar with Mikes baritone and Gary's alto falsetto Wow!
!!!!!!!! bravo

Can it be possible to listen to this complete performance?
Luther G can certainly play!!!!
Stand auch als Ersatz für den verstorbenen Stones Gitarristen in den Startlöchern!
I Am The Walrus starts at 7:17
thx! never heard of this before.
Mike Harrison sounded a lot like Joe Cocker at times. And that guitar that Luther's shown playing sounds awfully familiar, Beanoburst maybe?

Bonjour ! C'est POP 2
Рокеры на всем и все играют
@aspersive Sorry for my oversight. Thanks for the correction.
Ariel Bender!!!
Ahead of his time.
Is that Keith Emerson at the Hammond.....or had he moved on by then??
+tonewheelkev I think Keith Emerson left in late 66 or early 67 to form "The Nice". Mike Harrison and Gary Wright both played keyboards in Spooky Tooth
I believe that is John Hawken on the Hammond (also once in Strawbs and Illusion).
I wonder what they were smoking? :-D
Auto correct me Not. Luther's and Gary's
🦷Gruseliger Zahn
Un-professionnal FRENCH TV footage. Thanks for this almost waisted time!

Wasted time. Waist is where your belt goes. And this is great footage
