John , I`m slightly confused ...... you posted Shack Shakers " Pink Thunderbird " , which I assumed was yourself on bass ... ? ......... Now we have the Legendary Shack Shakers ......... Any connection ? ...... or have I got it all Pete Tong ( wrong ) .........
 
Happenstance as life imposes its conundrum(s), no connection at all, band names can be coincidence across the globe. JD Wilkes had the extended name first, rightly so. My mantra about being able to bang it out at "our" age was misleading Tony, apologies. More in the vein of what we can do on bikes or any other activities.

Being where we are, it would not bother anyone, now my band then is no more, matters little. Shake your hips we did as Shack Shakers, love that song, sets up a vib in the room, you know your banging it when a fight breaks out on the dance floor, and it did... younger dancers with lots of energies if not fight in them. Ephemeral be thy bands, there clear as mud... regards to you Tony. j

Terrific stuff John, thanks for the intro.

A couple from Joe Meek ( from Newent , in the Forest of Dean ) ........ plus one from Thomas Leer .......

Jimi Hendrix may have used a tissue and comb on " Crosstown Traffic" , but Joe would go one better by banging a broomstick on the stairs on get the right bass drum sound ...... what a perfectionist .........
 
Gordon Russell (guitar) played at my wedding with his ex-wife, then called the Two Timers. Here he is back with Dr Feelgood.

It was this (and others) that convinced a 9yr old me that I was a ROCKER. Also a great nostalgic look at the early 70's UK fashion !
