Did one of the Ventures mimic Peter Lorre's voice, or did they hire a voice actor for the song? |

I've always been thinking that fur-lined fallout shelter was going to be the doom of poof old Rex. Maybe by next week, they'll be able to dig him out of that hole, miles below the earth's crust. Did he leave you a copy of his wolf howl for the mike breaks? |

joe, you need more reverb on your vocals if you're gonna fill in for rex. A LOT more. |

I saw a movie on TV a few days ago that had the footage from that press conference where they announced that rock concerts were being banned in Jersey City. It was "Let The Good Times Roll," a 1973 film comprised of 1950s rock 'n' rollers performing their hits of yesteryear interspersed with some vintage concert footage. |

Yeah, and what happened after those old stalwarts stood up for keeping rock out Roosevelt Stadium? "...the Grateful Dead employed the space as one of their principal Metropolitan New York venues in the mid-1970s after the demise of the Fillmore East, performing at the stadium six times between 1972 and 1976. Yes, The Allman Brothers Band, James Brown, The Band, The Beach Boys, The Eagles, KISS, Eric Clapton, Pink Floyd, Tony Bennett, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, and Alice Cooper also performed at the stadium." |

Among Yes concert traders, the June 76 Roosevelt Stadium boot is considered maybe the best recording available from that tour, b/c after all the currently circulating version is straight out the WNEW vaults (live broadcast), with trippy comments from the Night Bird between and after the encores. A great sounding period piece. |

@Mike Sin: I think I have boots of three nights at Madison Square Garden from the "Animals" tour. I can't remember if they played Roosevelt Stadium on that tour. I know that they did on the "Dark Side Of The Moon" and "Wish You Were Here" tours. |

True dat, Joe, and on the WNEW soundboard boot Yes actually totally **rocked out** for once with a killer version of "I'm Down" with a 120-mph all-rock guitar solo as their final encore, leaving a wall of overmodulated audience cheering at the end... |
