Nothing says "the '50's" like the upholstery on those chairs.

Or Car seats?

I was invited to their concert in Madison, WI for that tour in the early '70s and turned it down. I'd just gotten out of the Army and wasn't into Bowie yet. I have come to respect him greatly. So sad that he's left this realm. I've been kicking myself in the patootie for turning down the invite ever since. I did get to see him live once on the Glass Spider tour with a young Peter Frampton. That was a dynamite show.

This is a photo of Brian Auger (on top) with Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, and Fats Domino. It's not photoshopped - they actually stacked the pianos. Taken on the set of the Monkees TV special '33⅓ Revolutions per Monkee', 1969.

Cool photo! Brian Auger has always been good, starting with The Trinity and with Julie Driscoll in the late '60s. And he just kept getting better. Oblivion Express was a great band. His concerts were must-attends.

I saw that when it aired; pretty edgy and out there. The Buddy Miles Express appeared as well. Like with the Head movie, they finally had a chance to do things their way.

I caught a Black Joe Lewis gig last night…

What a difference a few years make…the last time I saw him he had a large band with horn section, and was quite a manic performer. This time he was somewhat subdued, but got going halfway through the set. Even as trio, it sounded full; he's not that well known as a guitarist, but he was certainly dishing out screaming leads and John Lee Hooker style chordal stuff, very funky and mesmerizing. The bass player(I think Bill Stevenson is his name)was rock solid and kept pumping out the riffs. And, as always, the highlight of the night was Lewis' tender, heartfelt romantic ballad, "Bitch, I Love You". The ladies loved it.
Eddie 9Volt was the opener, funky, bluesy, soulful…

I haven't seen a tuck-and-roll vinyl clad Kustom amp in the wild in a long time. Too heavy for me, but still cool!
