The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #30. It was Dave Clark's name. But it was Mike's voice. And Mike's piano & songwriting. They could have been The Mike Smith Five but he didn't like to hog the limelight. And Dave had the business head. And so it was. But it was Mike's voice.

The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #29 Before session players got credited on records only a small number of cognoscenti knew who he was. But James Jamerson's bass lines on Motown records turned the world on to rhythm, to sensuality, to musical fun and to the bass itself as an instrument.

The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #28 Expelled from Eton, Mr Gibbs did everything the 1960s generation did but did it first: went to Morocco ('58), wore flares ('61) & floral shirts ('64). He took drugs, wrote beautifully for Men's Vogue & pioneered the counter-cultural life, all in exquisite style.

The Spiddal sessions were great fun to watch.
The video is a little blurry. Was that Sharon Shannon in the back? She’s amazing.

Anazing, Keiron. And it looks ace on you 🌟
I’d like to think Christopher would approve of my new (or rather 58-years-old) coat. It’s the one James Fox wore as Chas in PERFORMANCE, and I intend to treasure it for the rest of my life!

The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #27 When they found a jazz drummer and an Ernie with a bass amp the Satyr and his pals had a band, and he was the leader. He named them, set the musical direction, booked the shows, grew his hair out and dressed brightest and sharpest of them all.
