Remember cut outs and sales? I loved "Good Old Rock & Roll" and played the H out of it. It was just good old R & R. There was no pathos in the lyrics; just a good driving dancing beat. Those, for sure, were the days.<br />A.

I converted them to play on the Ipod and was listening to both of them today. What became of those musicians? Anyone know?<BR/>Though I like the first LP, the second on is my favorite and is thoroughly imprinted on my brain and lives on in there. Thanks guys, where ever you may be these days. You made some fine music.<BR/>RiccardoBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1150875769383039529.post-35815921696764762142008-07-20T10:50:00.000-07:002008-07-20T10:50:00.000-07:00I first saw this band (they were out of the East V...I first saw this band (they were out of the East Village near Tompkins Square Park)...at the Woodstock Soundout of the Summer of '67 or '68 just one or two years before the Big Woodstock Event....and they were fantastic...at one time I owned both of their lps, "Street...." and "Albion Doo Wah".

It was one of those free park gigs NY had so many of. Actually it wasn't my first live concert but it was my first Rock and Roll Concert. My first live music experience was at Freedom Land and while I was very young I do remember my Father carrying me to the foot of the stage and hoisting me up on his shoulders. Louis Armstrong was Playing and a large and very dark woman in a very red dress was singing When The Saints Go Marching In. Ahhh, growing up in NYCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
