Sensitive….. Bloody disgraceful, this needs to go straight in the bin …… there was no Kawasaki 750 in the clip.
Here`s one to upset the sensitive snowflakes ........ ( look away now if you don`t want to see the result ) ...... " they came by motorcycles and by vans , to hear the latest Zulu bands , they came by 750 Kawasakis ! " ...........
'mazing... the piano Gal is singing into an AKG D202 microphone, still used in the UK house of parliament from what i can see in video of same. Drum overhead or vocals, Sennheiser 441 or 442 as i can best attest. Nice mics, still have two of my late 70's AKG D222 later version of the D202, used in my gigs as kick drum mic.
More Fanny .........
It`s just from an Old Grey Whistle Test performance ...... I bought their album in `78 , went to see them play live , they were supporting The Undertones , but the gig was cancelled for some reason .........Left hand guitarist does my head in... nice symmetry all the same when we close up on lead singer, gal in a bloke sandwich...great fun...were do you get these from? Dont answer it would be more than i could cope with, wry smile j.
The box set eh? We had a lot of OGWT on IIRC GTK. 45 bux just spent.Love it, as basic as you will find in music, well mostly. Stage antics, very amusing, love the Betty Rubble costume on the gal. Must have bought a disposal sale of sunnies, box lot.
Have a full dvd set of BBC OGWT, given to me by the inimitable "Caustic Chris" Laverda man of some notorious and very likable much missed nature. j.
Wow, saw Ian and Tull live about 1977, took up flute from the experience and a desire pre Tull Live, to play. Ian of the era had so many bad playing habits, hard to watch him play in this clip. He notes in modern era interviews he needed and does learn how to play in more formal skills. The overblowing was a trend in the day, though most alarming is the exaggerated right hand fingers, and the left hand little finger in outer space ( Hendrix made little use of right hand little finger, sounded ok all the same ). 3 registers in a C or concert flute, lower two are same finger different mouth lip formation, the third high register modified finger patterns... more obscure redundant information you never asked for, a high c here... and puff... j
And finally , Mick Abrahams old group , with another Scotsman on vocals / flute .......
