The French They Are a Funny Race....
...but on the other hand, they seem to have had pretty good rock TV shows back in the day (1966).
If "Barbara Ann" isn't your cup of tea, stick around for a pretty astounding, if cavernously recorded, "My Generation."
Great way to kick off the day, methinks. Too bad John McCain makes me hear it as "Bomb Iran."
ReplyDeleteSartorially, they're in transition from their Mod to Psychedelic/Glam period.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. Wasn't it Moon that was such a big fan of the Beach Boys?
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve; yeah you gotta dance to keep from crying
ReplyDeleteActually the French did a shit job of showing the Who.
ReplyDeleteTerrible audio mix, vocals too loud, band sounding muddy & too low in the mix. Awful camera work!
