Thanks for this one H&HL. I have always considered myself to be a fan of a band that few people had heard of. Bought a ticket here in Adelaide for his Australian tour early 80s, unfortunately Alex passed before I had the chance to see the bands live performance. Always reminds me of my Scottish heritage.
I was a massive fan aged 14/15yrs old I and got to see the band at 'Sheffield city Hall' in 1975, a minibus went from my local youth club, as we went in, everyone was given a paper with the Lyrics to 'Boston Tea Party' as they had not released it yet as a single and were trying it out with the audience to measure their response, wished I had kept it now. Years later, I watched 'SAHB without Alex' at the 'Boardwalk' in Sheffield, Joe Elliot of 'Def Leopard' got up on stage and sang 'Boston Tea Party' with them and told the audience how the Band had a huge influence on him, a fantastic gig and the sound was incredible. When Alex split from the Band, he played a local pub near a village called 'Tibshelf' in Derbyshire, the pub was called, 'The Shoulder of Mutton' the group 'Slade' also played there.
Another great tribute, my friend, I appreciate the fact that you never say anything derogatory and that you are always fair and respectful towards them. A totally fantastic job with this video! I need to go and listen to some of Alex Harvey’s music now, for another artist keep in mind Gene Pitney he was a favorite of my mom‘s in the 60s. Your friend, Shilo from the USA
Looking at the photos you can just see how much they put their hearts into their performances. It was such a different music scene back then! It’s such a fluid career, moving from one group to the next, making friends, influencing each others styles, the music community in those days was full of such great names. I can see a little of Skyhooks’ theatrical style in some of these photos, it seems they were inspired at the same time. My grandmother’s fiancé was a Freemason, they get a lot of flack nowadays, but he was an honourable, loving man and I was proud of his ethics. Alex had a great life in music, and he lived it his way!❤️
He was a Freemason mmm i think i best look past that. He was dam good i cant remember where i saw him now but he was definitely something different at the time. Thank you for that i enjoyed that no end. Keep doing what you are doing ❤❤
Thanks for another great video. I remember dancing at school party to Delia. I haven't checked out all your back catalogue but if you havent done one on alexis corner i would be interested to watch. Another from my school party days tap turns on the water!!
As a front row fan a the Apollo it was only when the bad news was on the Telivision my Mother recinised him and stated He was our Cousin Iwas featureD on a BBC RADIO SHOW with this story .
I saw SAHB on Midnight special I think and they did Vampo. Whoa. It was cool but super weird. The guitarist face like a mime. And Alex looked so old...he was. Later, Chris Glen the bassist joined Michael Schenker's group. A great bass player. Alex, if nothing else be said was quite a character.
I'd like to see you profile Carl Wilson, Derek Leckenby, Mike Smith, Ian Stewart, Chas Chandler, Jet Harris, Gene Pitney, Trini Lopez, and so many others

Thank you so much Shilo 🥰 I also love Gene and have him on my list so will do him soon 😁 Always appreciate your positivity and kind words thanks again 🤗💞
One of the best live bands I ever saw and I saw many of the greats in the early 1970's. Sad lost so young and much missed by fans of SAHB.
One of my biggest regrets, never seeing SAHB live, but The Tale of the Giant Stone Eater is still one of my all time favourites 👍
RIP Alex
I remember WMMS in Cleveland always playing him.

Yes I see the likeness of the Skyhooks 🥰 And I agree each to their own 😁👍 Thanks Deidre as always ❤️
I once met him in the reception of Bronze records ,nice bloke ,a big loss😢
He was a Freemason mmm i think i best look past that. He was dam good i cant remember where i saw him now but he was definitely something different at the time. Thank you for that i enjoyed that no end. Keep doing what you are doing ❤❤
Yes I was surprised he was a freemason too. So glad you enjoyed it Jayne 🥰 Always great to see you here thank you 🤗💞
If you have to look past that it says more about your bigotry than it does about Alex.
@amcmenemy5647 Thank you so much for your comment ❤️
