Saw Colin few times in last few years, he plays with modern day line up of Ten years after. He's great. I got him to sign an old Back door LP ,he joked " you made a happy man old" when he saw the LP.
@@ilovecoltrane4565 I knew Ron... used to live close by, visited his home studio and he inspired me to make a living in music and sound. Such a legend. Missed
I heard them for the first time when they did a radio session for Peel in 1971-72 just after they got together and was highly impressed. You look back from today's vantage point and think, "how extraordinary."
They were completely unique. I’m instantly transported to summer of ‘73. Great to see some decent footage of them. I don’t remember them being on the TV once, in the UK. I always thought Colin played with a plectrum.
I attended a music workshop that featured Colin Hodgkinson and Adrian Tilbrook, in the mid '70s. Amongst other things they demonstrated playing in 27/8 time.
As a Boy Scout (really) I saw them in an outdoor velodrome stuffed with stoned GI’s in Frankfurt in 1972? They were bottom of the bill along with Nazareth, Berry, Gallagher, Faces .... Fantastic memory.
@@somethingfortheweekend5902 website looks familiar. I think I did email you some weeks ago inquiring whether there was already an archive of these shows but I didn't get a reply. I will email again in case the first one got lost in junk
I knew Ron in the latter part of his life having missed their gigs in my hippy heyday. Lovely guy , awesome musician. So sad he passed.

Great post, thank you! And an intro by the legend that was Alexis Korner.
Yes.
Three of the best & most original there ever was.
Saw this line up at Ronnie Scott's one night. Great little ensemble.
the "Activate" line-up in full swing. Meaty! Thanks for sharing this clip of England's finest jazz/blues trio.

I saw them support PFM in 1976 and became a fan.
Very Good 👍

I remember them playing The Lion up at Blakey Ridge!

Just discovered Back Door via some inherited tapes of Jazz Club from 1973, looking forward to hearing these live gigs in full.
Could you tell me which Jazz Club tapes you have? We might be able to help each other
