  • In October 1976 my band Inner Light recorded a video demo for Washington Talent Agency. I purchased the 1-inch open reel videotape and recently had it restored. Also included on the tape was another agency band, Sixpence.

      Thank you! It makes me happy too when I hear how this song has lifted peoples' spirits all across the globe (90 countries). Sixpence was a top agency band - Steve Niederman was the bass player. I played piano with Inner Light, which also recorded videos the same day.

      These guys were a top band in the DC area in the 1970s. I played piano with the other band that recorded videos the same day, Inner Light: ruclips.net/p/PL1O5w_w6TcCZFJ2avhwb-H2NnBAX20kNz

      ¡Saludos desde Music City USA! Uno de mis primos se casó con una costarricense y está pensando en mudarse allí. Escuché que es un país hermoso y me encantaría visitarlo algún día.
      También aprecio el arte de los músicos que no se basan en artilugios y trucos técnicos.
      Veo que has disfrutado de algo más que Bohemian Rhapsody. Toqué el piano en la otra banda que grabó el mismo día, Inner Light: ruclips.net/p/PL1O5w_w6TcCZFJ2avhwb-H2NnBAX20kNz

Yo mismo grabé la mayoría de los videos y toco los teclados en la mayoría de las bandas. Es como tener una banda en vivo tocando en tu sala de estar, o en tu cabeza si estás usando audífonos.

    What happened to this band?

      @ArnieReed  3 года назад +1

      Greetings to you in Brazil! I hope to travel there some day and see your beautiful country.
      Both Sixpence and Inner Light worked for Washington Talent Agency during the 1970s-80s. I played piano with Inner Light, which also recorded videos the same day. We played the high society gigs - weddings, bar mitzvahs, country club dances, and my band played Jimmy Carter's Election Night at the Statler-Hilton in DC a month after this video shoot.
      I don't know what happened to the Sixpence. Both bands worked constantly and never saw one another except at agency functions like this. I made more money with Inner Light from 1973-77 (adjusted for inflation) than I've ever made since. But it put a strain on my family, so I left the band in April 1977 to spend more time with my 5 & 7 year-old children. Sometimes there's such a thing as too much of a good thing, Then in 1988 I got back into bands and am still playing at 75.
      You have probably seen all of Sixpence's set: ruclips.net/p/PL1O5w_w6TcCZx9kOINA0WKBJGpIvZi-Am.
      Here's Inner Light with me on piano: ruclips.net/p/PL1O5w_w6TcCZFJ2avhwb-H2NnBAX20kNz.

      It has been an unexpected delight to speak with people all across the world about music, which is truly a universal language. It certainly has kept me young!
