On Sunday, March 27th, Dave Cash and TW mentioned the Knees Club at 11.25am. My diary notes that this was on a programme sponsored by Bristol Myers, so I am assuming that the show would have been announced as such. However, it may have been another advertiser's programme, as Brian Long in The London Sound, lists the starting date of the Bristol Myers advertising sponsorship as April 1st, with weekly half-hour programmes broadcast at 11.00pm on Fridays. On Friday, April 1st at Beaconsfield Youth Club, John Mayall became the only musician with too many brains to want to join the Knees Club. I was so deeply offended by this that I didn't keep any notes, but I assume that John appeared with the Bluesbreakers. The group (according to Pete Frame's Rock Family Trees) contained at that time Eric Clapton and John McVie. I'm guessing that I did not ask any of the others to join, for fear of another rebuff. But who knows what zenith of stardom these artistes might have reached had they joined the KC? (Click on the photo for more info on Rock Family Trees) |
