Speaking of Texas, Dallas must have been a fun place to
have rock'd out in the 60s......for me and my Garage Band Pantheon Top 50:
1. Satan's Chyldren
2. The Gentlemen [both versions]
3. The Chessmen [ my newest Top 5 song]
Anyone hail from Dallas in the 1960s? And can give a low down on the cool places to hang out and listen to any of the local bands?
BTW.....Back From the Grave Vol 9-10 is out. And influences are basically Yardbirds, Them and Rolling Stones in that order. If you are a guitarist, the god of guitar was Jeff
Beck in 1965-1966. His riffs were perhaps the most copied in all 10 volumes of BFTG. Interesting about the Vox and Farfisa. Though all the groups in northern Delaware lugged a Hammond B3: the Collectors, the Mod 5 and Mike and Mardells all had at least a Hammond B3, and if the stage was small, then yes they would bring usually a Vox Continental. I think House of the Rising Sun with Alan Price used a Vox Continental. I could be wrong though. Remember the Hammond B3 was tubed based with EL34 tubes! ;-)))
