Those were the days and was lucky enough to be watching the great Aussie bands playing live at Preston Tech Gym Hall, Broderick smith & Carson, Daddy Cool, LA De Das,Madderlake,AC/DC,Skyhooks,Lobby Lloyd, Billy Thorpe,Missisippi,Blackfeather.WOW!
Mesmerizing! Blues...Wow... that takes good endurance from a muso to hang in there on ONE RIFF for ten minutes! Great stuff takes me back to the 70s when some great Aussie music could be heard all around the place. Clips like this show how good the music was then compared to now. This clip had me almost feeling stoned. Fantastic to see again. Thanks Farkle.
Wow that bring some memories back great band used to catch the train from nunawading Friday and Saturday night watch these blokes chain Thorpe and go to pubs in the arvo village green etc great music
Great Music. Carson, this was Broderick Smith at his best. They were fantastic live with bands like the La De Das, Aztecs, Chain, Madder Lake, Daddy Cool, Sid Rumpo and Spectrum. Please keep posting Farkle, these are clips we cannot afford to lose.
The best Aussie "boogie" band of all time (apologies to Chain) who were in a slightly different category, in my opinion. Saw these guys at Mulwala in 1972. Canned Heat were headlining with Steven Stills but Carson blew them away. Saw the guys from Canned Heat stageside while Carson were doing their thing - and they were mighty impressed. Australian rock/blues music was at its best during this era. Fantastic
I seem to remember Queen at Muwala when they weren't famous! (may have been stoned) and they were shit, never did like them. Of course Carson were the best Aussie "boogie" band then Chain, daylight next.
up here in Sydney as a young bloke I didn't get to Victoria for gigs, but I remember seeing Pirhana as a backup act on a Deep Purple/Free tour and they were easily comparable. We had our own brand of music that often surprised OS touring bands
I never got to see this band. Don't remember them visiting Adelaide but then I wasn't allowed out much until the mid seventies. What a great band. I really enjoyed watching this. Thanks for posting.
Broderick Smith (v), Greg Lawrie (g), Ian Winter (g), Tony Lunt (d), Gary Clarke (b) and in the band but didn't see then in the clip Mal Logan (k) & Mal Capewell (sax)
It’s a standard boogie riff, JL Hooker, canned heat, ZZ top, Freddie king all did versions. Boogie children, on the road again, la grange. JLH might have been the first
RIP the fabulous Broderick Smith. 😢😢😢You were such a talent and such a gentle, kind man.

Wow indeed. Great days!
takes me back to 5th Form Social (Oakleigh Tech) in 1971, we had Carson as the support band to Daddy Cool. It's been all downhill since then.
Not bad ! My 5th form social in 1970 in Sydney , we had Freshwater ( with Alison MacCallum) and Blackfeather !
ONE OF THE BEST BOOGIES I HAVE EVER HEARD. 🍺

Пришел послушать данную музыкальную композицию после радиопередачи "Студия Владимира Матецкого" от 30 апреля 2022 года. МНЕ НРАВИТСЯ!!!

Sunny Sunday at Mitcham Oval 1972. Blackfeather, Captain Matchbox.......

Tough as nails, aussie boogie at its best!
If only todays musicians were half as good as these guys were, no fancy electronics just great playing

@Paul Brian Martin He's probably still grooving away in the studio. Someone needs to go check.
Wow that bring some memories back great band used to catch the train from nunawading Friday and Saturday night watch these blokes chain Thorpe and go to pubs in the arvo village green etc great music
I remember the Village Green, Carson, Chain, Thorpy, Max Merrot etc. wonderful music.

You are so right , we cannot lose these clips....the best music ever.... Thanks keep posting Farkle...
Dont forget Buster Brown, Band of Light, Fraternity etc
Yep ! Definitely the golden era of Aussie music ! And GTK was the best programme to deliver it to our lounge rooms >

Me Too , that was full tilt Carson slayed
I was there too. Much better than Canned Heat. Australian music at its best. Thorpe rocked too!

Chain went to the USA and blew the bluesmen away with their jazz inspired instrumentals.
Pig is a legend

THORPEY, AZTECS , CARSON etc etc ......
CLASSIC AUSSIE ROCK 🎸🔊 🤘🤘
Great, raw, and rippin.

Broderick Smith is fantastic on vocals, went on to sing with the Dingoes
His son is the lead vocalist for King Gizzard
FANBLOODYTASTIC!!!!!❤️☮️✌️️
Best band 16 when this came out
Love this song.
The original aussie trance music..imagine this at Rainbow Serpent festival or Summadayze!
I saw them Plenty at outdoor Festivals yeah you that said 10 minute riff .. Bluddy Tidy
Great. Simple as that...
Blew canned heat off the stage at mulwala
Ésto es música de verdad
get down and boogie around..
Broderick Smith (v), Greg Lawrie (g), Ian Winter (g), Tony Lunt (d), Gary Clarke (b) and in the band but didn't see then in the clip Mal Logan (k) & Mal Capewell (sax)
These guys are all legends , they laid the foundation for the next umpteen decades of Aussie rock .
Boogieman Sam by king Gizzard is clearly an homage to this
More like this song is a tribute to the all the boogie that came before it.
About 17 year old MASSIVE
Harp is Max - Farkleberry juice!
BeefHeart!
Not bloody bad!
love the music - but the video sends my head into a pseudo-psychadelic spin.
Gnarly a.f.
Spirit in the sky riff?
It’s a standard boogie riff, JL Hooker, canned heat, ZZ top, Freddie king all did versions. Boogie children, on the road again, la grange. JLH might have been the first
Not the best but definately up in the top 5...I think thorpies cc rider would be #1
sorry guys, it was crap back then and still crap now......it's stood the test of time
Go listen to some Donna Summer.
Or justin bieber
Wogboys were too busy wiping the excess Brylcreem from their earlobes..
Abba more your style
You cannot judge.
