    After hearing these ‘cool British singles from…’ series, it makes me think I lived on the wrong side of the world. I’m a lover of British progressive rock. I was introduced to Family not too long after their debut by a neighbor who came back from a tour of Vietnam. Many of those servicemen would stop in the Philippines to buy their stereo components. This neighbor had a massive set up installed and I remember him introducing me to Family. Nice mention of Genesis (my fav) being influenced by them. Cool hearing Simon Dupree and The Big Sound. As mentioned, they did morph into Gentle Giant. Probably one of the most progressive of all the progressive bands that came out.

    • @joelake7986
      @joelake7986 2 роки тому +7

      Definitely my all-time favorite Kinks song. This is the song that finally cemented my Kinks fandom, almost 30 years after its initial release. As much as I love the Beatles, the Kinks to me have a kind of magic that no other band can claim. In retrospect, I wish the Beatles had been given less attention so that so many other deserving bands could have been given more, but at least all of their music is still with us, just waiting for us to discover it.

    • @nathalieplum2137

      And talk about an earworm! I just READ the title 'Autumn Almanac" and it gets stuck in my head for weeks. So of course in September and October of every year, I go loco🤪
      I'm now 55 myself and the part of the lyrics now that obsesses me the most are:
      "La-la-la la la la-la la-la la-la la-la
      Oh, my poor rheumatic back
      Yes, yes, yes, it's my autumn almanac"
      every morning I wake up now, but in my case it's my right knee and hip!

      Mine too. The sheer ordinariness of the activities being sung about, that apparent contentment with the everyday, is what endears it to me. And it's an outstanding example of that rare form in popular song, the rhapsody (term for a sequence of tunes that are different from each other, but somehow make up a coherent whole - Queen's bohemian one being probably the best-known).

    This channel is the next best thing to a time machine. There were so many creative bands and fun songs. Kippington Lodge reminded me of their psychedelic "Lady on a Bicycle". Also SImon Dupree and the Big Sound with "We are the Moles"
    Only Ray Davis could write lines like this in Autumn Almanac:
    "From the dew-soaked hedge creeps a crawly caterpillar
    When the dawn begins to crack
    It's all part of my autumn almanac ...."

    Fascinating video from YP as usual! It’s interesting to hear excerpts from these great singles, many of which I had not previously heard. Autumn Almanac is surely one of the Kinks best ever recordings. The song’s brilliant evocation of an English autumn is an absolute joy to listen to, one of Ray’s greatest songs imo! It’s also nice to revisit music journalist Chris Welch’s insightful reviews, he was my favourite music paper columnist for many years, and still makes interesting contributions to music based TV shows such as the fascinating ‘Classic Albums’ series!

    Also released in October '67 is the 13th Floor Elevators' second album Easter Everywhere. While the rest of the music world congregated and celebrated the "Summer Of Love", the original psychedelic heroes hid from the extremely oppressive anti-drug law enforcement and Texas rangers in a cabin in Kerrville, Texas and wrote that autumnal masterpiece with the aid of drummer Danny Thomas and bassist Danny Galindo that Elevators guitarist Stacy Sutherland met at an Austin jam session earlier that year. Happy Halloween.

    Greetings from Austin, Texas. Always look forward to your episodes, especially the British Pop singles I've never heard. And the incredible period film clips, stills and the 45rpm record labels(how did you get those?, wow) BUT there is one that did stand out: 'There is a Mountain'. I did hear this on AM radio a few times when it was originally released(dating myself) but I knew it more from "Mountain Jam" an improvised instrumental jam by The Allman Brothers Band released on the 1972 release 'Eat a Peach'. Then there's 'All Along the Watchtower'...now this bit of back story is amazing. Thanks for all you do, Mr. Yesterday's Papers~!

    From all that I've read of Decca, they were a difficult label to sign with. If they felt you weren't getting enough airplay or the potential for such, they'd simply cut you off. Imagine how differently things would have turned out had the label signed The Beatles, based upon the audition tapes they'd cut with them? Possibly given a more rigid producer and may never have gotten past their first single.

If they'd signed with Decca, the label may have felt encouraged enough with how Love Me Do fared in the charts, I doubt anyone besides Martin would have listened to the original version of Please Please Me and given the positive feedback that caused the rearrangement. How well the ballad version would have sold is anyone's guess, but only Martin could have seen the potential with a style and tempo change. He made them as much as they made him, and all of are the richer for it.

    Yesterday’s Papers was on Between the Buttons. And is has an odd metallic ‘ding’ I somehow envisioned Brian adding. I’m 61 and I’ve always loved that album. Connection. My Obsession She Smiled Sweetly and the Dylanesque. Something Happen to me Yesterday. ( don’t forget if you’re on yer bike wear white) lol. Keep up the good work YP cheers from Montreal.

    American psychedelia was harder and more political because we were sweating out getting drafted and angry about the war. A lot of great American bands never left their home towns because their members needed to stay in school to remain safe from the Army.

    A couple of extra comments here;
    The one-off UK single you mentioned here by The Afex was written by Tom Shipley, later of Brewer And Shipley, and originally recorded in the States months earlier by a group called The Poor who featured future Eagle, Randy Meisner.
    Secondly, the single you featured here by The Creation appeared on their double CD Creation Therapy with their complete recordings, but labelled there as Alternate Mix, but was this recording without the overdubbed strings, and in stereo with a bit of studio chatter at the beginning. No fade-in at the beginning after the added strings intro there.

    • @tonys9102
      @tonys9102 Рік тому +1

      Good comment. I'll add that the Poor also had a very minor hit with "She's Got The Time," since it hit the Bubbling Under chart." The Randy Meisner song they did, "Come Back Baby" is also excellent and made it onto a least one popsike compilation I have, "Fading Yellow" (I forget which volume).

      @@tonys9102 Many thanks for your reply. But as it was late, I only just by chance came across it when looking for someone else's comment here. I don't usually look back that far. But I think their best single was both sides of their first, Once Again/How Many Tears. Their sound was at times influenced by The Byrds and The Association, with mild hints of the softer British Invasion. There is a CD called Help The Poor, containing their entire tracks plus tracks by The Esquires, featuring future members of The Poor, but not Randall Meisner.

    HAVE I GOT A BAND FOR YOU! You do such a great job covering Rock Bands of the '60s - I want to suggest a documentary for you. "Blues Magoos" were the Kings of New York Garage-Psych 1966-68. Their biggest U.S. hit was "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet". Nobody has done a documentary on The Magoos. I can provide a great 77 WABC Radio spot for the band. In their day, they were right up there with the Lovin' Spoonful in Metro-NYC popularity. I think you'll really "dig 'em".

    • @YesterdaysPapers
