A lot of the "Beatle" recreation bands use them these days - reference the band 1964 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K05lkpoj1FE ). Note to concert goers - always sit in the back where the illusion is better.<br />Electric Prunes?

The Beau Brumme...Listening to these clips today...<br /><br />The Beau Brummels sound like The Bee Gees. Something about the tone of the lead singers voice. And I remembered the Beau Brummels as being cute, but the lead singer is surprisingly ugly. And is he wearing a wig?<br /><br />The Blue Magoos seemed to get away with just shouting instead of singing. They remind me of The Yardbirds. Tough guys. Too rowdy for my teenage girl taste.<br /><br />The Electric Prunes had a classic psychedelic name — adjective + food item — and song title. Such a hippie thing. And that autoharp. When I see an autoharp, I think of The Lovin' Spoonful.<br /><br />And The Bee Gees, The Yardbirds, and The Lovin' Spoonful were much better than The Beau Brummels, The Blues Magoos, and The Electric Prunes.

They've recently reformed and played a few nostalgia gigs.<br /><br />They weren't that good (or interesting) to begin with, but any hit single from the 60s is good for a half dozen nostalgia gigs every 5 to 10 years. (Not that those gigs pay anything, at least by the standards of people accustomed to making a decent living. We're talking about, maybe, $100 per minus travel expenses.)<br /><br />One of the original Magoos is a guy known alternatively in town as "Mr. Bicycle Repairman" or "Swami Pastrami." He quit playing anything but local gigs decades ago and lives in voluntary poverty in some sort of religious cult that I can't quite identify. He won't even do the nostagia gigs and I don't blame him.<br /><br />On top of the cheap pay, you've got to lift and carry your own equipment, which could be a medical disaster for guys in their late 60s and early 70s.Shouting Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09813058890609756982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-87977478261385004062016-03-06T08:44:20.157-06:002016-03-06T08:44:20.157-06:00A 60s good old boy died.
