Is this the same Sounds of the Sixties that was originally aired about 25 years ago?

Bend me shape me. The worst mimimg ever by Andy.
Report blackbarn March 28, 2015 7:30 PM GMT
Very hard for Andy to mime, given that he didn't move his lips even when he was live. 

nb - bloody fine guitarist by the wayCool

Yes, he was performing at the George Harrison memorial bash at the RAH.

Plenty of good music as well.

I bought the album that song was on aka', Other Side Of Dylan.

Who's the first guy to sing? He's not listed. Looks like Brian Wilson a bit.
Report kenny mann March 29, 2015 8:36 PM BST
Not him though.
Report akabula March 29, 2015 8:46 PM BST
I've always thought it was him of The Byrds fame. Roger McGuinn.

The only one I don't know (Unless I'm wrong with RMcG as well) is the younger guy in the green suit and trainers.
If you watch he's actually stage managing the event for them.

Well done mate. You passed that little test with flying colours.

Going back to the RAH, I've seen this chap and his band several times. They are awesome.

younger guy with funny hair, no idea who he is but he kept getting in the way. lol
Report akabula March 29, 2015 8:54 PM BST
He was stage managing, I'm sure of that.
As regards JB I thought his piece for the finale was very apt and moving.
Report kenny mann March 29, 2015 9:01 PM BST
Yes, he always finishes his act with that. It's an ancient song.

Sadly, very sadly, the 2 guitarists on stage with Joe in that clip, on his immediate left and right  both died within the next few years. They's been with him about 20. Tragic. He did well to soldier on.

His drummer is the brother of Jim Capaldi of Traffic fame, and his son now plays with his band.

Was looking at JBs wiki, didn't realise he was 73 but then I keep forgetting how old I am Cry.
The guitarist in the jacket looks a lot younger, what age was he?
Report kenny mann March 29, 2015 9:58 PM BST
That's Neil, he was a great guitarist and a terrific baritone voice. About 47 I think. Dave on the left was maybe 52.
Report kenny mann March 29, 2015 10:03 PM BST
Not far out, Neil was 48, think he had a brain tumour.

I met JB at my friends wedding, he was trying to break into the music business and JB was helping him. He was a genuinely nice guy, I always liked him as an artist but had no idea he was such decent guy.
Report kenny mann March 29, 2015 10:24 PM BST
He seems very genuine as far as I can tell, foxy'. He's also very funny at his gigs, as well as being a superb musician.

His mate, George Harrison was best man at Joe's second wedding in 2000. His first wife was also a performer, and utterly gorgeous. Sadly she died.

Didn't know that kenny, have not seen my friend for years, he never made it in the music industry, we lost touch, but according to his dads (the actor George Cole) wiki page he is now a successful script writer.
Report kenny mann March 29, 2015 11:06 PM BST
That's interesting foxy.

I never made it in the music industry either, despite performing at one gig in a group with a schoolmate who went on to be in The Love Affair. Doh.

Assuming the Dylan song was My Back Pages I have wondered for ages who the young guy is. He was deffo orchestrating the whole thing.. telling Eric and George et al when to come in and where to stand. It was Rmc Q opening.
Report boxingthefox March 29, 2015 11:20 PM BST
me too kenny, had many opportunities/invitations, but lacked self confidence when it came to going pro. When you look at the talentless fcks making a great living out of it you must think like me and say to yourself I'm a million times better than him/them. you might have been in a very successful group. Sad

Dobbo I saw Dylan at earls court, and every word he sang was indecipherable, he was always nasely but this was fcking ridiculous, but we comforted ourselves with the knowledge that Van Morrison would make the night worthwhile. WROOOONG.

The thieving scumbag con man took our money and was in one of his now infamous I'm not going to perform moods. and preceeded to take the p all night, refusing any requests for songs like Brown eyed girl etc with a nonsense "you can't live in the past answer. so it was a night without any previous recorded songs, just rambling dirge jamming laughing with the band while turning his back to the audience on many occasions, and yet no one booed, they just took it, I left long before the end which is just as well because I would have been thrown out for my outburst anyway.

Total waste of £120 quid, it felt like backing a horse who comes under orders and refuses to run. Sad

You'd have to pay me to go and watch soapy Dylan.
Report Dobbo March 29, 2015 11:44 PM BST
I saw Dylan at Earls Court and he was brilliant but that was 1978.I wouldn't cross the road to see him now. His voice has gone and I  cant stand all that re invention of the songs. He is still the greatest for me but only on record. I saw Them in Hounslow in the sixties and they were great too but again much as I like the songs Van's well publicised grumps means I will never see him live unless he passes me on the bright side of the road.
Report boxingthefox March 29, 2015 11:51 PM BST
It was the late 90s. dobbo, great talent, excellent song writing, fair voice that suited his R&B rooted music but a cooont of a man.

Spelling if you ever want to see a "showman" then Dylan isn't it he hasen't scooby what that is, clever guy using the social upheavals of the day in a reasonably poetic way. but entertainer, forget it, they could not pay you enough to watch him.

Good Foxy but had a dub NI and the ROI at just over 6s.
Had a saver on ROI drawing so cheered that goal.
The draw was also a good result for Scotland.

They deserved that goal after their 2nd half performance, although the goalie was impeded probably, but the ref had a clear view.

I like them both, although wasn't into them in the 60s as The Stones and The Who and The Beatles and The Searchers were about, but Frank was an excellent actor and brilliant singer. Dean traded on his good looks and was talented,but that's all, imvho.
