Sensational Alex Harvey Band. Hence the caption, "Why, why, why?"
They had a big hit with "Delilah."
That's Alex Harvey (RIP), and Zal Cleminson.
He's a such a great guitar player.
Brilliant, theatrically unhinged band, one of the great frontmen of the 70's. Mad Scottish humor, the mime bit was no more silly than Alice Cooper or Sparks. Just when 'Rock' was taking itself too seriously, these tongue-in-cheek hooligans came along. Of course, America didn't get it, but the soon-to-be UK punk generation(and a few Yanks)did. Vambo rules!
There's some wonderful stuff available in these days of Youtube.
If you want unhinged try "Next" or "Framed."
Fun seeing the young Chris Glen.
Ironically, you would hear them on LA radio at least once a week courtesy of former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones' "Jonesy's Jukebox" show, KLOS 95.5, noon to 2pm(PDT). "Faith Healer" in particular gets played a lot. The show's brilliant, interesting guests(lots of those interviews are on YouTube) and his song selections will surprise you, but it's all stuff you wouldn't hear elsewhere. Anyone elsewhere can stream it on the KLOS app.
My thanks to those that chose to take an extra 5 seconds to tell us who we are looking at.
Ha, It never fails; in the second hour today(8/9) Jonesy played the SAHB track, "Isobel Goudie", followed it up with some Bebop Deluxe and the Kinks' "Shangri-La". I love the show. AIC's Jerry Cantrell will be in tomorrow.
