What club was that? I heard it was the Marquee Club in London(?)" I always took that to mean it was the Marquee as well, and the new-ish book "London Live" supports that. That was The Marquee's photo calling card. There was a striped awning at the Richmod Jazz Festival, but I'm not certain that there was any connection between it and The Marquee. Although I think "London Live" may have also mentioned a connection between the Marquee ownership and a national Jazz organization, which was responsible for the RJF. I'll double check the book. GoGo asked: "And what's the deal with this "Small Faces Movie" called 'Dateline Diamonds?'>And what's the deal with this "Small Faces Movie" called 'Dateline >Diamonds?' Quoting from the "Room For Ravers" website: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Martin_Payne/ The Small Faces appeared in a film in 1965 called Dateline Diamonds. What does anybody know about it? Christopher Dolmetsch and Kent Benjamin help out. This was a low budget spy thriller released about October 1965. The Small Faces appeared in a club scene in the original line. The Small Faces perform I Got Mine. It's not live, but they did record an additional song, apparently, for the film, a version of Don't Stop What You're Doing with Jimmy Winston vocals. This was included on the French EP for What'Cha Gonna Do About It . It was omitted from the 1996 CD reissues with French EP tracks, allegedly because one of the band didn't particularly care to include bonus Jimmy Winston tracks.

You can almost always find footage of british bands playing in a club with a horizintally-striped piece of cloth behind the band. What club was that? I heard it was the Marquee Club in London(?) but heck if I know because... that Who footage is (I think, it's not in front of me) also in front of that same cloth tent thing, which would make me think it's the Richmond Jazz Festival (and then perhaps actually in a large tent). But I have some color footage of the Animals in the same situation, and that looks like it was 1 or 2 years earlier than the who (64 instead of 66)." ISTR this is indeed the old marquee club in wardour st london w1. that striped hoarding thing was there for years and years. it was actually made up to look like a tent .... marquee ... geddit! the venue was used by german t.v. ("beat club"), among others, in the mid-late 60s for band sessions. ythere is a famous session featuring the who and hendrix for example from around march 67, introduced by dave lee travis. don't go looking for the venue now, though, since it closed in the late 80s and was demolished. that space is now an expense-account eaterie called "mezzo". bet your feet don't stick to the floor there like they used to in the marquee. groovily phil dil ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2000 06:05:19 -0800 (PST) From: BobDuncan@webtv.net Subject: NW 60s Loose Ends Before I move on to The Redcoats, let's tie up some loose ends from the last post. (that's code for I gotta dig thru my shit) I want to make it real clear that going to NW teen clubs in the 60s was NOT an underground movement but was kind of a high school ritual, with different clubs being dominated by the schools that were in closest proximity. The Headless Horseman was mostly kids from Wilson High (where I went), Lincoln High, & Cleveland from just across the river. It was owned by Mr. Matlack who had kids there (Cleveland). The local stars were looked upon as just as good or better than most national acts of the day. The success of The Raiders added legitimacy to this feeling. There was a whole string of 2nd tier bands like The Bards who played on the undercards at the Armories and bigger venues.This was true at the Sonics show I attended. Although the undercards of the Wailers & Sonics shows run together in my memory (due to the fact that they were both at the PSU Ballroom & the fact that even in those days I liked to drink beer) I can tell you with a degree of certainty that early Portland Psych band The Warloks were present at one of these shows. SOP for us was to start early (after school), find a wino to buy us a couple 8-packs of 8oz Country Clubs and duck down the loading entrance on the side of the Portland Art Museum in the Park Blocks which run north-south thru the city and right down the center of he PSU campus and get lit. From there we would head south about 6 or 7 blocks to the Horseman, or across the street to PSU. And this was just what we did the night of the Sonics show. I think they had two supporting acts, and played about an hour. I'd have to look at a time line, but I think they had just released You Got Your Head On Backwards Baby and were touring to support it, so I'm pretty sure they played that. I do remember hearing The Witch, Psycho, I'm A Man & some covers. I think the thing that struck me about them is they were real clean cut looking in matching collarless jackets ( kind of early 60s NW look) and the guy that looked like the front man (sax player Rob Lind) did little or no lead vocals. Gotta go, but I'll add that the Fanz Only LP has 6 songs, 3 from Salem 66 & 3 from the Seattle reunion show (the 2 common ones + Lucille which is STUNNING.

Richard B. is currently working on a project in my studio, and speaking with him about a show is easy to do. Getting the band together may not be though, but do you think The Bongos are CS! material?

While I like the most recent Bro. JT stuff, the O. Sins stuff is way more up my alley. I'll admit that I don't think they did a truly *great* record after _Move_, but even after that most were damn good (with _Bethlehem_ being my favorite of the later recordings). I guess I'd say that if you gave me a choice of listening to The Original Sins thru '91 or '92 and compared it to anything JT has put out on his own, I'd jump right to the O Sins material. That's not knocking Brother JT, just saying that it's not as much my style. In regards to Cavestomp, I believe getting The Original Sins (and I mean JT, Ken Bussiere, Dan McKinney, and Dave Ferrara, tho' I'd be perfectly happy with Seth Baer on drums, too) would make far more sense. The O. Sins fit the 'Stomp vibe where I don't really think Brother JT does. One man's opinion, Blair ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2000 18:44:18 From: Rocky Serkowney Subject: Re: CaveStomp2000 Jon, I absolutely luv the Bongos, but I sorta agree that they ain't quite Cavestompish in terms of their sound or approach to the music. Would be better suited to a Popstomp where the likes of Let's Active, Game Theory, 20/20, the Beat, the Db's and the Romantics could re-live the halcyon days of 80's power pop. Nah, for the middle-school, Cavestomp needs acts like the Not Quite, early Plan 9, Stomachmouths, Miracle workers, Gruesomes, etc.. But the Slickee Boys might work well.

(Not sure if it's in all of 'em, but in the one with "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place" there's definitely a shot or two that you can see it in.)
