The comments are coming
fast and furious, folks ... we've already got another Bonus Issue coming at you
today. (Keep 'em comin' ... I'm lovin' the fact that you guys are lovin' this
series!!!)
For starters, we heard from our other Ides Of March concert ticket winner ...
Here is Mike DeMartino's take on the show he saw at The City Winery last Wednesday Night ...
Kent -
I will now have the daunting task of measuring up to the skills of a Mr. Chet Coppock (gulp)!
I did not read Chet's review on purpose today. God did he get any sleep? I knew I was cooked when Chet started taking notes last night and this dork (affectionally called by my girlfriend) did not bring a pen and pad! Oh well, here goes ...
I entered the Palace called the City Winery and much to amazement was seated by the first table to the right of the stage. I greatly enjoyed the food and drink (sorry, not a big wine drinker so I had a Pepsi). Great seats, good food and a totally enjoyable time.

How you could not have a good time when you
enter the CHURCH OF ST JAMES!
Flanked by the other three
original members (Larry Millas, Bob Bergland and Mike Borch) who, with Jim, I
call the Fantastic Four (plug to my favorite comic), the soulful groove of Scott
May, and the dynamic horn section, I have never seen the IDES give a bad
show.
What I love about the Ides is they never rest
on their laurels. Constantly writing new songs or reinventing old ones, they
always keep you guessing. Their take on 'High On You' with that calypso flavor
gave the song a new and wonderful twist. And how about "Is This Love"? It
starts with just Jimbo by himself singing the ballad, and and then here come the
rest of the Ides to rock it to a dynamic finish. The boys keep on re-inventing
themselves ... they are no "oldies" group.
They played all our
favorites and finished the show with the 1 - 2 punch of "Vehicle" and "Eye of
the Tiger". If you want me to gripe, well, I wished they performed "Aire of
Good Feeling" and "One Hit Wonder," two of my personal favorites. AND PLEASE,
IDES, FOR PETE SAKE, BRING BACK SUPERMAN PLEASE BEFORE I DIE
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jimbo (with his self-depreciating humor) is a
national treasure. He was involved in 20 top 40 hits! Singer, composer, creative
talent, friend to all, we have him here in Chicagoland. How lucky we are to have
him when most legends would be in LA by now. And JIMBO makes you feel great.
Let me tell you a story.
I was at an Ides show in
Jefferson Park in Chicago many moons ago. While performing "Eye of the Tiger,"
Jimbo always jams and go out to the audience. Jimbo saw my hat and liked it and
we actually switched hats! Jimbo wore my hat for a few other numbers and then he
called me out to exchange hats. I didn't think I was going to keep his beretta!
Yes, Jimbo and the Ides makes you feel the love!
You can tell the Ides enjoy and love playing
for the audience. For them the MUSIC IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT and you can tell
that and I love them for that. Thanks Ides!!!!
Thank you, Kent, for the tickets! It is always
hard due to time and monetary considerations to get to see the groups I love (I
usually have to choose one or two of Ron's shows out of ten at the Aracada) so
this was a great treat. And what an unexpected pleasure to be seated with Mr.
Chet Coppock, the noted sportscaster and a true gentlemen. Chet does a lot of
charity work and came to help my friends at St Williams parish one
year.
Truly a great night.
Thank you,
Kent!

Sounds like everybody had a blast ... now
I'm more jealous than ever!!! And great seats to boot. (Special thanks to Lisa
Dell of The Silverman Group and the folks at The City Winery for the comp seats
... they certainly went to good use ... and to Jimbo, too, for setting me up,
even though I wasn't able to get away in time to see the show.)
"Aire Of Good Feeling" and "One Hit
Wonder" are two of MY favorites, too ... and I've been pushing for them to add
"My Foolish Pride" to the set list, too.
In fact, be sure to check out Forgotten
Hits ON The Ides Of March (March 15th) for a VERY special, WORLDWIDE EXCLUSIVE
... once again, we bring you music before anyone else in the whole world has
heard it ... you won't want to miss this one! (kk)
Jimmy and the guys just
killed ... best Ides show I've ever seen! Their versatility and passion are truly special ... always feel
lucky to see them.

Chuck Buell Here! ~~~
In Forgotten Hits Bonus #11, Ron Riley related about his Fifth Dimension Coca Cola commercial tag line, "... having a golden day with Coke!" and he concluded with, "... if you used that line today, you'd be Twittered to death!"
"Twittered to death!" Pretty funny line, Ron!
Here's how I imagine being "Twittered to death" in the early 1960s looked like!

From left to right, you'll find Clark
Weber, Dex Card and, in the back row, Ron Riley, ALL of whom have been
participating in our very special 1967 Series. (Can you imagine what a thrill
this is for me?!?!? Again, keep it in perspective ... we're STILL talking about
these guys 50 YEARS LATER!!! That's how big an impact they had on our lives!)
Behind Ron is Don Phillips (the "East Of
Midnight" guy ... and the first WLS jock I ever met when he MC'd a Cryan' Shames
show at The Hillside Shopping Center in 1966 ... anybody know if Don is still
around?), and seated in front the late, great Art Roberts and Bernie Allen.

Hi
Kent:
March 5th, 1967 ... my 11th
Birthday.
I got "Pushin' Too Hard" by The Seeds and "For
What It's Worth" by Buffalo Springfield.
A good day!
Ken

"Malibu U" did indeed have a very short run as
Summer of '67 prime-time filler on ABC.
Rick Nelson did a fine job as host, despite
the obviously low budget and the exceptionally poor writing and execution of the
"comedy" bits between songs. The bikini-clad girls, of course, are all every
surfer boy's dream.
The 8-16-67 episode is up on You Tube as a
murky B&W kinescope from the UCLA Film Archives -- which is unfortunate, as
the show was shot in color on videotape, which should have
survived.
Very much a period piece, it opens with the
Fifth Dimension's eternally soaring "Up Up and Away" and somehow works in Freddy
Cannon (with one of his clearly lesser efforts), Don Ho (trying to sound like
Dean Martin) and what I consider one of the '60s most romantic records, "Happy"
by The Sunshine Company (although The Blades of Grass version is equally as
good). A real surprise is Roger Williams with his hit "Born Free" on a piano
bicycle built for three!
Almost a full decade later, Roger was offered
another piano-driven movie theme which he turned down as not commercial. Did he
come to regret that! After that second movie theme became a monster hit in two
different versions, Williams realized that the tune was largely "Born Free," as
he put it, "played upside down." And that's true! Compare for yourself the
theme from "Born Free" -- and the theme from "Star Wars"!

Attached is something I'd forgotten I had: A Paul Revere & the Raiders Oddity ...
Attached is something I'd forgotten I had: A Paul Revere & the Raiders Oddity ...
It's a full-length
recording of "Him or Me" followed by a minute of spoken promo for their album
"Spirit of '67." I have no idea where it came from, but it's certainly pertinent
to your series on 1967.
Good luck with it. I'm loving it; that was my freshman / sophomore year at Lane Tech, and music was a very big deal to those in my circles.

Cool spot! '67 was a BIG
year for Paul Revere and the Raiders ... man, remember when artists used to
release three or four new hits per year??? Heck, in 1967 artists like The
Monkees and even The Rolling Stones released three brand new ALBUMS of new
material!!! They were really crankin' 'em out back then! (You had to in order
to keep up with the competition!)
Mark Lindsay, Paul Revere
and the Boys hit the national charts FIVE TIMES that year ... and every single
one of them made The Top 40. (Two of them even made The Top
Ten!)
"Good Thing" (#4); "Ups
And Downs" (#19); "Him Or Me - What's It Gonna Be?" (#5); "I Had A Dream" (#13)
and "Peace Of Mind" (#35). It didn't get much better than this!

Kent,
Early this morning it dawned on me that back in 1967 here in the OKC area, there were two songs-records that made it to number one here in the city but did not chart nationally according to the Billboard Hot 100. Bubbling under, that I don't know. As the year goes on, I will indicate to you said records.

You are doing a fantastic job so
far ... only ten more months to go (LOL).
One final thing ...
On this time period here in OKC
(March 2 - March 8), the number four song (peak position) was a novelty record
by Archie Campbell called THE COCKFIGHT on RCA. I am going to somewhat go out on
a limb and say this record wasn't played in Chicago, but I could be
wrong.
Larry
Nope, we missed out on that one!
(And actually that one never charted nationally on the pop charts either!)

One of our recent daily calendar
posts marked the day that "Release Me" by Engelbert Humperdinck started its
seven week run at #1 on The British Charts, thus preventing The Beatles' "Penny
Lane" from ever reaching the top of the charts.
That reminded me that we didn't run
The British Charts (as submitted by Rockin' Lord Geoff) for the month of
February ... so, in an effort at a quick "catch-up", here's the way the music
ranked in Great Britain during the months of February and March,
1967:
