[Harp-L] Wuh' Mo' Time,,more nostalgia to go with your neuralgia

["Bob Laughlin" <rlaughlin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This clip, from Playboy after dark, sometime in '69, again features Al Wilson on harp, beginning around the 5:00 minute mark. It's amusing to watch Bob "the bear" Hite carrying on a polite intellectual discussion with Hef on "vinyl recording trivia", with the two "bunnies" in hand. Very reserved, somewhat like the dancing. What a trip.

Here's another clip of Canned Heat from Monterey, '67. Cute to see people just beginning to crack the lid on the "free life", and the "sixties". Check out the hair on the band members. Almost look like the "Beach Boys".

Hey, tell those guys in the biker jackets those seats were taken, okay?


Okay,,this final clip has Canned Heat playing at Woodstock. A little piece of history.

Nothing spectacular musically. In fact, it drags a bit as time goes on,,but it's interesting to see Bob Hite's reaction to an audience member jumping up on stage, around 1:50. How many would be that graceful with "an intruder".



Okay,,finally(?),,you've just gotta see the great dancing going on amongst the audience in this clip from 1970. Longer hair. stoneder peeps.
