Day 2 - A filler song

Frankenstein - #EdgarWinterGroup (1972)

This “throwaway” track became a huge hit (and #1 in 🇨🇦). This version, live on the UK’s #OldGreyWhistleTest, is the definitive version, imo.

I bought this album in 1971 , having heard Havana Bound track on the BBC #oldgreywhistletest - fabulous guitar album. Played it non stop until it was a bit scratched so went in for a new one a few years later and found it was deleted!! .. gutted. But a decade on into the CD era and it was re-listed!

In The Rock 9/21/1971: ‘The Old Grey Whistle Test’ debuts on BBC TV. The programme became a touchstone for great live music during its 26 year run, and lives on in glory via YouTube. #OldGreyWhistleTest #BBC #RockHonorRoll

I remember seeing this on the #BBC's #OldGreyWhistleTest and then found on the B-side of #SistersAreDoingItForThemselves I love the #phasing on the record. #Biographical?

Day 82
#Johannesburg by #GilScott-Heron (1976)

I remember a #BBC show called #Arena, which focussed on GSH. It was an interview with some music. By the end of the show I was looking to get his music.

The clip if from the #BBC's #OldGreyWhistleTest

And all about the times when we were running wild ...

Song written (and first recorded) by #FredNeil - the Buckley version appeared on #Sefronia in '73

If Paul McCartney could have massed bagpipes for Mull of Kintyre, then obvs Blondie had to have them for Sunday Girl #OldGreyWhistleTest

With added pipers! Playing Sunday Girl! #Blondie #OldGreyWhistleTest

This #blondie #oldgreywhistletest is magnificent. #ogwt #bbc4

#Blondie are not messing around #OldGreyWhistleTest
One song after another, no breaks, no chat. Over and done in 30 mins!

Come. On. Drumming in a gold lamé suit, what a don. RIP Clem Burke #Blondie #OldGreyWhistleTest #TOTP #notTOTP

Debbie Harry stirred things in me when I was young. Fair play, she was absolutely stunning.

Oh Clem 😔 #OldGreyWhistleTest #Blondie #BBCFour

Peak Blondie era #OldGreyWhistleTest #TOTP

Blondie on BBC Four, British people! #OldGreyWhistleTest

A stunning Ian Dury & the Blockheads 1980 concert with Wilko Johnson on guitar from Dominion Theatre, London on #BBC4. Charismatic, witty, incorrigible, beyond categorisation musically. Who today dares to be so bold & ignore boundaries? #OldGreyWhistleTest

I did not know that Wilko Johnson joined the Blockheads after leaving Dr. Feelgood! #IanDury #OldGreyWhistleTest #BBC4

Hadn't realised that Don Cherry played with Ian Dury and the Blockheads alongside Wilko Johnson. #OldGreyWhistleTest
