IT'S 1967 . . . GROOVIN' BLUE IS BEING BROADCAST ON CKLG-FM IN VANCOUVER, B.C. CANADA AND IN LONDON THE MIGHTILY MIGHTY SOULFUL JR. WALKER & THE ALL-STARS HAVE THE RAM JAM CLUB MOVIN' AND BELIEVEIN' ! ! !
IT'S INTERESTING TO SAY THE LEAST THAT THE BLACK BRITISH AUDIENCE REMAINS SO STILL DURING THIS PERFORMANCE. RESTRAINED TO SAY THE LEAST. BUT THEN AT THE END THEY MANAGE TO RAISE A LITTLE DUST BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT THEY APPRECIATE IT ON A MUCH LESS VISCERAL LEVEL THAN A NEW WORLD AFRICAN AMERICAN AUDIENCE.

VANCOUVER B.C. SUN NEWSPAPER SCRIBE-EXTRAORDINAIRE - Mr. JOHN MACKIE SENT WAGRadio THIS AD FROM THE 1960'S of The SMILIN' BUDDHA WHEN NEW WORLD AFRICAN MUSIC ACTS RULED ! !
YA GOTTA WONDER WHO WAS IN THE HOUSE BAND "THE KINGSMEN"?
WAS IT DOUG CUTHBERT on DRUMS? HENRY YOUNG on GEETAR? LARRY VOLEN on TENOR SAX? And I KNOW THAT Mr. MACKIE FEELS IT'S THE SEATTLE BAND BUT I HAVE A GUT FEELING THESE "KINGSMEN" were LOCAL VANCITY MUSICIANS. . . and MOSTLY EAST ENDERS. TRUTH TO FOLLOW?
AND LOOKAHERE ! ! THE WONDERFUL TEDDY FELTON - THE M.C. THAT DEFINED JIVE TALKIN' AND GOOD-LOOKIN'. TEDDY WOULD SAY STUFF LIKE, "We gonna take a break and lissin' to J.B. That's not James Brown, that's the jukebox" and "It's time for a coke and a smoke and then we'll be back". IT WAS Mr. T. FELTON WHO INTRODUCED THE MIC-CHECK PHRASE, "Tastin'. Tastin'" INSTEAD OF, "Testing, testing" to the musicians of VanCity.
DJZigZag CLAIMS THAT EVEN THOUGH HIS PALS WERE IN THE HOUSE BAND . . . HE WAS AFFEARED OF GOIN' TO THE GIT-DOWN WHALIN' SMILIN' BUDDHA.
ANYBODY KNOW HOW THE PLACE GOT IT'S NAME?
THANK YOU JOHN MACKIE FOR SUCH A GREAT GIFT.
