Vabosity's Third Anniversary Review Of The Thread - Post #36.
I think it's time for another post consisting entirely of instrumentals.
Today's selection is somewhat more eclectic than those in previous Third Anniversary Review instrumentals-only posts.
Raymond Lefèvre - Soul Coaxing (1968) First submitted to the thread in June 2010.
The original vocal version, entitled Ame Câline, written and recorded by that very talented French artist, Michel Polnareff, is definitely worth checking out. However, I personally prefer this instrumental cover version.
Henry Mancini - Baby Elephant Walk (1961) First submitted to the thread in July 2010.
The late Henry Mancini was one of the all time great film composers. This terrific little tune was written for a John Wayne film entitled Hatari. Heard of it? No, neither have I.
The Leaves - Back On The Avenue (1966) First submitted to the thread in April 2011.
This superb instrumental by one of the best Garage-Psych bands of the sixties starts off pretty good and gradually gets better and better and better.
Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra - Theme From Route 66 (1962) First submitted to the thread in May 2011.
This fabulous piece of music was written as the theme tune for an apparently very popular early sixties American TV drama entitled Route 66. Heard of it? No, neither have I.
Vabosity's Third Anniversary Review Of The Thread - Post #37.
As a tribute to Lou Reed, who sadly died yesterday aged 71, I have decided to postpone what I originally had planned for Post #37 of the Third Anniversary Review, and instead the post will consist entirely of tracks by the sixties band that he (Lou Reed) co-founded with John Cale, the Velvet Underground. Formed in New York City in 1965, the Velvet Underground pioneered avant-garde rock and despite a distinct lack of commercial success are now recognised as one of the most influential bands of their era.
I've searched the thread and have found that five Velvet Underground tracks have been submitted to it, and those five tracks can be found below.

You should have included this one
I included it in my tribute to Lou Reed this morning show.
That's a very good track and I like it a great deal, but as it hasn't previously been submitted to the thread it could not be included in my Third Anniversary Review, which as the name suggests is a review of the first three years of the thread and consists of repeats only.
Anyway, thanks for now submitting it to the thread, and thanks for paying tribute to Lou Reed on your morning show.
ill throw this one in, its not in the catalogue but saw it and was interested... the association are abit of a favourite on here.. heres 'never my love' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDLbpuMXdjE
One of many French artists we haven't a clue about in the UK. This was massive on the Continent in '66, and set him up for a career that I think is still around today! He still gets a lot of coverage on French radio and tv even now.
Ants 63 - christmas star - no youtube vid
An instrumental cross between 'Telstar', 'Johnny Remember Me' and an early 60's spaghetti western. Sounds nothing like a Christmas record, it was just a twangy-guitar led bandwagon throwaway. The engineer cuts it off abruptly at the end as if he couldn't do it quick enough You can almost hear him struggling with the security staff to get back to the desk after the first few bars

Vabosity's Third Anniversary Review Of The Thread - Post #38.
Today's post in the Third Anniversary Review will consist entirely of tracks by the Beatles.
The Fab Four, of course, are the most famous, popular and critically acclaimed band, not only of the sixties but also of all time, so there is arguably no such thing as a rare Beatles track. However, so many Beatles tracks are so incredibly well known that other tracks by them could be said to be relatively rare by comparison. Quite a few relatively rare Beatles tracks have been submitted to this thread, and five of those tracks can be found below.
The Beatles - Crying, Waiting, Hoping (1963) First submitted to the thread in November 2010.
Here are the Fab Four performing a Buddy Holly song, recorded during a 1963 BBC radio session.
The Beatles - Soldier of Love (1963) First submitted to the thread in January 2011.
Superb cover of a terrific Arthur Alexander song, also recorded during a 1963 BBC radio session.
The Beatles - Wait (1965) First submitted to the thread in February 2011.
A track on the album Rubber Soul. A fine song, but one that unfortunately tends to get overshadowed by the more famous songs on the album.
The Beatles - It's Only Love (1965) First submitted to the thread in February 2011.
A track on the album Help! I really like this one, but it's yet another that tends to get overshadowed by the more famous songs on the album.
no single but i found this... bitter sweet symphony - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUO2-4a0ZxY , didnt know they did the original, thought the verve only borrowed off james last...
Aquarian Age no info but see keith west, tomorrow, twink, clem catti, nicky hopkins
68 - 10,000 words in a cardboard box
Well, well, well (obscure link )
Always known this track from the enormously expensive, rare and great Twink album 'Think Pink', but never realised it was recorded before!!! Great find
BTW - you meant Clem Cattini, and it's probably worth mentioning that the single also has Mark Wirtz (he of the 'Teenage Opera' saga) on keyboards.
Never heard of him, so did a little digging. Other than the fact 'Funky Way' is not a typical track for him as his output was more lighter soul than funk, there's not much info readily available. 'Funky Way' was later covered by Rufus Thomas, instrumentally by Ray Johnson, and by Wilson Pickett http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rc7fwyE1JsA (interesting - the credit here is to Pickett and Arnold, whereas Arnold's own original is credited to Arnold only).
Vabosity's Third Anniversary Review Of The Thread - Post #39.
The previous post in the Third Anniversary Review consisted entirely of tracks by the Beatles, and although there are no tracks by the Fab Four in today's selection, each track could be said to have some sort of Beatles connection.
The Knickerbockers - Lies (1965) First submitted to the thread in May 2010.
This band is American and the song is neither a Lennon-McCartney nor a George Harrison composition, so what's the Beatles connection? Just listen to this track and it'll become obvious.
Piano Red - Mr. Moonlight (1962) First submitted to the thread in December 2010.
The cover of this song by the Beatles (on their 1964 album, Beatles For Sale) is imho excellent. Here's the very obscure, but just as excellent original version.
The Fourmost - I’m In Love (1963) First submitted to the thread in March 2011.
This terrific Lennon-McCartney song is imho one of their better early compositions and one of that handful that the Beatles didn’t themselves record. Instead the song was given to Epstein stablemates, the Fourmost, who imho did a terrific job with it. It should have been a massive hit, but it was only a minor one.
P.J. Proby - That Means a Lot (1965) First submitted to the thread in November 2011.
P. J. Proby's version of this little known Lennon-McCartney composition was only a very minor hit, but I like it a great deal. Please click herefor the song's Wikipedia entry, which imho makes an interesting read.
Lenny Welch - A Taste Of Honey (1962) First submitted to the thread in February 2012.
This fabulous track was the first vocal version of a song that the Beatles famously covered on their debut album, Please Please Me.

69 - scooby doo - no youtube vid (i wonder if its the cartoon tv theme?) just in case ill post this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDjW7n4j5fg
It's the Buffalo Springfield track, written by Stephen Stills. This version is still often on the House Sensible playlist - as is much of the related band Spooky Tooth. Art were the V.I.P.S, which you can find out about here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_%28band%29.
However, if you want to loop the info around this track, follow http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernatural_Fairy_Tales
and you'll get there anyway
... and a nice little puzzle I don't have time to work on today. I have this track on a psych compilation somewhere (with Principal Edwards and Elmer Gantry and other more obscure stuff), but can't remember the title of the album.
The singer and composer has posted what looks like a diferent version from later in the 60s http://artpodell.com/some_music. Sorry, I haven't had time to compare them

i first came across that track in the early 90's when east 17 sampled it :eek: (on 'deep') i was too young in the 60's for album tracks unless they were by well known groups. buffalo springfield were beyond my area of interest and i never really caught up... my area of interest centres around the british r n b, mod sounds of the mid 60's.
thanks for the wiki link, i must have missed it amongst the various 'art' entries.
think ds ought to pay me for this, , its generating over 3,000 views a week so advertising revenue is coming in, at the current rate ill be busy for over 2 years but likely 4.
after that theres no reason why we cant go back and post other tracks by groups posted... take yesterdays post , the 'artwoods', theres loads more on youtube, ive only posted tracks listed in the record collector catalogue. in fact if others want to post other tracks by acts recently submitted then please feel free to do so! (obviously people can post wtf they want anyway, but i dont want anyone to think they shouldnt because of my and vabositys ongoing projects).
it proves that there is a market for rare 60's material, it proves its popular... good! :cool:
Vabosity's Third Anniversary Review Of The Thread - Post #40.
There is no theme to today’s post in the Third Anniversary Review. It just contains five tracks that I like a great deal that were initially submitted to the thread during the first few months of its existence.
David McWilliams - Days Of Pearly Spencer (1967) First submitted to the thread in May 2010.
Brilliant single that the Great British record buying public of the day chose to ignore, so it failed to chart in the UK. Our continental cousins showed much better taste and the track became a big hit single in quite a few European countries.
The She Trinity - Promise Me You'll Cry (1966) First submitted to the thread in June 2010.
ITV are currently screening the final four episodes of Agatha Christie's Poirot, some 24 years after the programme began. The first of those final four episodes saw the return of three once regular characters who had not appeared in this TV drama for several years, i.e. Japp, Hastings and Miss Lemon. Why am I mentioning this? Because, in her youth, Pauline Moran (the actress who plays the aforementioned Miss Lemon) was the bass guitarist in a rather splendid all-female band called the She Trinity. I like many She Trinity tracks, but Promise Me You'll Cry is my favourite. The sound quality could be better, but this is the only available clip for the track on Youtube.
The Pentangle - Once I Had A Sweetheart (1969) First submitted to the thread in June 2010.
Beautiful rendition of a fine old, English traditional song by one of the best British folk-rock groups of the era.
The Nightcrawlers - Little Black Egg (1966) First submitted to the thread in October 2010.
Randy Gibbons' contributions to the thread have introduced us to many very obscure but nonetheless excellent sixties bands. The Nightcrawlers are one such band and this track is an absolute gem.
David McWilliams - Days Of Pearly Spencer (1967) First submitted to the thread in May 2010.
Brilliant single that the Great British record buying public of the day chose to ignore, so it failed to chart in the UK. Our continental cousins showed much better taste and the track became a big hit single in quite a few European countries.
I haven't looked up the original entry for this, so apologies if it's repeat info - but it wasn't so much the public ignoring it as lack of exposure on other than Radio Caroline.
McWilliams' manager (and label owner) Phil Solomon had business interest in Caroline, and they flogged it to death that year. The BBC, and other pirate stations, ignored it because of the link.
Caroline had saturated their playlists with Major Minor label records before - The Dubliners 'Seven Drunken Nights', 'All For Me Grog' and 'Black Velvet Band' especially. Sick of Irish music before the summer was out!

it was one of those hits that i heard as a kid, i remember, but was shocked to find no chart entry for it. (similar to niel diamonds - solitary man, young rascals - how can i be sure, amongst others.

Today's post in the Third Anniversary Review will consist entirely of tracks by the Beatles.
The Fab Four, of course, are the most famous, popular and critically acclaimed band, not only of the sixties but also of all time, so there is arguably no such thing as a rare Beatles track. However, so many Beatles tracks are so incredibly well known that other tracks by them could be said to be relatively rare by comparison. Quite a few relatively rare Beatles tracks have been submitted to this thread, and five of those tracks can be found below.
The Beatles - Komm Gib Mir Deine Hand (1964)
First submitted to the thread in June 2010.
This is a real curiosity, the Beatles singing one of their biggest hits in German!
The Beatles - Crying, Waiting, Hoping (1963)
First submitted to the thread in November 2010.
Here are the Fab Four performing a Buddy Holly song, recorded during a 1963 BBC radio session.
The Beatles - Soldier of Love (1963)
First submitted to the thread in January 2011.
Superb cover of a terrific Arthur Alexander song, also recorded during a 1963 BBC radio session.
The Beatles - Wait (1965)
First submitted to the thread in February 2011.
A track on the album Rubber Soul. A fine song, but one that unfortunately tends to get overshadowed by the more famous songs on the album.
The Beatles - It's Only Love (1965)
First submitted to the thread in February 2011.
A track on the album Help! I really like this one, but it's yet another that tends to get overshadowed by the more famous songs on the album.

frustrating day today with the lack of vids, some of which might have been interesting...
Always known this track from the enormously expensive, rare and great Twink album 'Think Pink', but never realised it was recorded before!!! Great find
BTW - you meant Clem Cattini, and it's probably worth mentioning that the single also has Mark Wirtz (he of the 'Teenage Opera' saga) on keyboards.
yep indeed, my bad, its small writing and in the fading light i missed out 'ni' lol.
thanks again
The previous post in the Third Anniversary Review consisted entirely of tracks by the Beatles, and although there are no tracks by the Fab Four in today's selection, each track could be said to have some sort of Beatles connection.
The Knickerbockers - Lies (1965)
First submitted to the thread in May 2010.
This band is American and the song is neither a Lennon-McCartney nor a George Harrison composition, so what's the Beatles connection? Just listen to this track and it'll become obvious.
Piano Red - Mr. Moonlight (1962)
First submitted to the thread in December 2010.
The cover of this song by the Beatles (on their 1964 album, Beatles For Sale) is imho excellent. Here's the very obscure, but just as excellent original version.
The Fourmost - I’m In Love (1963)
First submitted to the thread in March 2011.
This terrific Lennon-McCartney song is imho one of their better early compositions and one of that handful that the Beatles didn’t themselves record. Instead the song was given to Epstein stablemates, the Fourmost, who imho did a terrific job with it. It should have been a massive hit, but it was only a minor one.
P.J. Proby - That Means a Lot (1965)
First submitted to the thread in November 2011.
P. J. Proby's version of this little known Lennon-McCartney composition was only a very minor hit, but I like it a great deal. Please click here for the song's Wikipedia entry, which imho makes an interesting read.
Lenny Welch - A Taste Of Honey (1962)
First submitted to the thread in February 2012.
This fabulous track was the first vocal version of a song that the Beatles famously covered on their debut album, Please Please Me.

huh.... what a rip off this guy was..
next installment monday at the earliest.
However, if you want to loop the info around this track, follow
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernatural_Fairy_Tales
and you'll get there anyway
The singer and composer has posted what looks like a diferent version from later in the 60s http://artpodell.com/some_music. Sorry, I haven't had time to compare them
i first came across that track in the early 90's when east 17 sampled it :eek: (on 'deep') i was too young in the 60's for album tracks unless they were by well known groups. buffalo springfield were beyond my area of interest and i never really caught up... my area of interest centres around the british r n b, mod sounds of the mid 60's.
thanks for the wiki link, i must have missed it amongst the various 'art' entries.
after that theres no reason why we cant go back and post other tracks by groups posted... take yesterdays post , the 'artwoods', theres loads more on youtube, ive only posted tracks listed in the record collector catalogue. in fact if others want to post other tracks by acts recently submitted then please feel free to do so! (obviously people can post wtf they want anyway, but i dont want anyone to think they shouldnt because of my and vabositys ongoing projects).
it proves that there is a market for rare 60's material, it proves its popular... good! :cool:
There is no theme to today’s post in the Third Anniversary Review. It just contains five tracks that I like a great deal that were initially submitted to the thread during the first few months of its existence.
David McWilliams - Days Of Pearly Spencer (1967)
First submitted to the thread in May 2010.
Brilliant single that the Great British record buying public of the day chose to ignore, so it failed to chart in the UK. Our continental cousins showed much better taste and the track became a big hit single in quite a few European countries.
The She Trinity - Promise Me You'll Cry (1966)
First submitted to the thread in June 2010.
ITV are currently screening the final four episodes of Agatha Christie's Poirot, some 24 years after the programme began. The first of those final four episodes saw the return of three once regular characters who had not appeared in this TV drama for several years, i.e. Japp, Hastings and Miss Lemon. Why am I mentioning this? Because, in her youth, Pauline Moran (the actress who plays the aforementioned Miss Lemon) was the bass guitarist in a rather splendid all-female band called the She Trinity. I like many She Trinity tracks, but Promise Me You'll Cry is my favourite. The sound quality could be better, but this is the only available clip for the track on Youtube.
The Pentangle - Once I Had A Sweetheart (1969)
First submitted to the thread in June 2010.
Beautiful rendition of a fine old, English traditional song by one of the best British folk-rock groups of the era.
The Nightcrawlers - Little Black Egg (1966)
First submitted to the thread in October 2010.
Randy Gibbons' contributions to the thread have introduced us to many very obscure but nonetheless excellent sixties bands. The Nightcrawlers are one such band and this track is an absolute gem.
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles - Ooh Baby Baby (1965)
First submitted to the thread in October 2010.
My favourite track by my favourite Motown act.
McWilliams' manager (and label owner) Phil Solomon had business interest in Caroline, and they flogged it to death that year. The BBC, and other pirate stations, ignored it because of the link.
Caroline had saturated their playlists with Major Minor label records before - The Dubliners 'Seven Drunken Nights', 'All For Me Grog' and 'Black Velvet Band' especially. Sick of Irish music before the summer was out!
it was one of those hits that i heard as a kid, i remember, but was shocked to find no chart entry for it. (similar to niel diamonds - solitary man, young rascals - how can i be sure, amongst others.
