Garage girls go for it!
In the wake of the Stones, the Animals, and the Yardbirds, more barbed and fuzzy riffs started snarling out of the garages and cubbyholes of rehearsal spaces worldwide. Garage Rock, the original 'Punk Rock', was unleashing. Many groups were lucky to cut a small label 45 with some local airplay. The women got far less chances at it. Patti's Groove are a mystery because of this common circ*mstance. All I know is that Columbia (a major label!) released this in January of '66. But, wow, was Patti groovy or what?!
Black and White aren't actually in the color spectrum; they're neutrals. The 60's generation rejected the fake absolutes that the 50's used to sort reality; for instance, applying those absolutes to peach, butterscotch, cinnamon, and chocolate skin to justify hatred. Instead they embraced actual blasting color in all their works. Or, perversely, they used the actual neutrals themselves to turn perception of reality inside out. Op Art and Pop Art opened this way of seeing, and pop culture expanded on it through music, fashion styles, and graphic design. It was the mid-60's and absolutes about anything wouldn't last much longer...

Supernatural love with LaVern!
The 50's was a cavalcade of start-up record labels, and Atlantic was the best. They swung with R'n'B, kicked with Rock'n'Roll, swayed with Soul, and later roared with Rock. Their roster is a dream line-up beyond comprehension. But in the beginning, in the early 50's, it was called "the house that Ruth built" because of the sassy hits of Ruth Brown. Quick on her heels was the blazing belter LaVern Baker, whose "Soul On Fire" was torrid enough to steambath New York.
"Voodoo Voodoo" was burned into acetate in 1958, at the height of Rock'n'Roll and her fame. In a head-scratching lapse, Atlantic didn't deliver this hot plate until two years later. Rock was in a lull and the single missed its mark. But quality is timeless; here's LaVern to whip you onto your feet!

Rockabilly scorcher!
The Collins Kids were the actual thing. While the new music called Rock'n'Roll was mostly sung by adu*lts for young people, these teens walked the talk. Their big break was as regulars on the TV show "Town Hall Party" starting in 1954. Lorrie was 12 and Larry, 10! This Country showcase put them beside June Carter, Tex Ritter, and Larry's guitar mentor, the astounding Joe Maphis. The highlight was watching the elder dueling with his whirling dervish sidekick on double Mosrite guitars.
When Rock hit in '55, the kids were right on it. They pumped out many great singles into the early 60's. This blazing little number runs a two minute mile. Lorrie puts so much gusto into her performance it's startling to realize she's not even 16 yet. But that was the heart of it; the Collins' were the new Rock'n'Roll youth incarnate, on fire and rarin' to go. It's all punk music, and this is where it starts.

Feed your mind and your aspirations will follow!
As covered in the companion video, Margo Guryan's "LOVE", the late 60's was a big bang of new conciousness. Every facet of modern life was questioned, quested and requalified. In this process the dawning realization that women needed their own emancipation on every level -physically, personally, politically, and spiritually- blossomed. Whatever you were told, ask the crucial question, "Why?" If it benefits an oppressor, don't do it. If it liberates your soul, bring it on.
Your mind is.
The Luv'd Ones hailed from Michigan. Inspired by the Beatles, Char Vinnedge took up the guitar, coralled her sister Chris on bass, and rounded it out with Mary Gallagher on rhythm guitar and Faith Orem on drums. From 1964 to around 1968 they tore through Beat music, a little Surf, fuzzy Garage, and finally edgy Psychedelia. You can hear the changes through Char, the driving heart of the group. At first high harmonies and sunny clang in the early tunes and steadily arcing into dirty fuzz and dark vocals. Char was a cutting edge pioneer who deserves to be in the pantheon. Check it all out on the "Truth Gotta Stand" CD from Sundazed!

Lights out with Queen of Funk!
Betty goes at it full-throttle in this scorcher. She leaves it to interpretation but here's a few sketches of possibilities.
If the 60's was the Empowerment decade -from King to X to Che to Chavez to the Counterculture- then the 70's was the Liberation decade. There were so many issues to address that what we know of as the 60's really stretches roughly from 1964 to 1975. The rise of Feminism and the lateral expression of sensuality were later, crucial extensions in that period.
Sexism is evil; but Sensuality is essential. The word "sex" can mean either gender or the sensual act. Folks who blur the two without distinction speak to neither well. Gender inequities are wrongs that should be righted. s*xuality is a spiritual and physical pleasure everyone has a right to. The best lights of Feminism understood this from the beginning, and do now with examples like Riot Grrl and Bust and bi*ch magazines. Betty Davis was a progessive sensualist who was misunderstood and suppressed in her time by repressives and some confused progressives. Time has borne out the quality of her work and the merit of her stance.
"Liberation for all, Everything must be rethought." -funknroll

Hard Hearted Mama!
Her guy messed up for the last time and she's putting an end to it! Yikes, start running!
Until the 50's, records came on 78 RPMs, which were heavy, brittle, and hard to care for. Two new technologies -the 45 RPM single and the 33 1/3 RPM album - duked it out to replace the 78's. It was a win-win; 45's lit up the jukeboxes for the kids, and 33's smoothed out their parents' nights. Rock'n'Roll was considered a frightening fad and its fly-by-night nature brought everyone out of the woodwork. You got one shot at a 45 on a nowhere label if you were lucky. Thousands of such wannabes fell through the cracks, only now being reappreciated.
Most notable of all is the contribution of women. Like everything ever, women were right there with it for Rock'n'Roll. Wanda Jackson, Janis Martin, Lorrie Collins, Brenda Lee, LaVern Baker, and Big Mama Thornton get their late due now. But there are lost galaxies of forgotten stars who could use some love. Joyce Green is one of those lights that flickered and faded. She got one 45 and out. But what a flare! She belts with a clench-teethed ferocity that would make girders quake. Her matter-of-fact murderosity is as thrilling as it is chilling.
That guy's probably still running!

Mystery queens of Beat music!
No one knows who the Beattle-ettes were. They were one more answer record knocked off responding to the maelstrom of the Beatles' invasion of New York in 1964. (It was rushed out so fast, in fact, that they got the spelling of the boys' name wrong, with an extra 'T'!) But it is sure that they were produced by "Shadow" Morton just before his breakout success with the fabulous Shangri-La's. Because of this, and the definite New York moxie of the singers, many believe it might actually be the Shangs! This would be cool as all hell, of course, but no one knows for sure.
What we do know is this is a rockin' two minutes of punky Beat music that sticks in your head all day.
I always had a deep fondness for the Beatlemaniac girls. They were the cusp of the revolution. Many historians seem to regard them as only hormonal teens, while the boys are seen as the inspired legions conquering the future with guitars. I think this is crap. There were many, many girl bands just as inspired by the fab four, including the Liverbirds, les Beatlettes, die Sweetles, the Girls, Goldie & the Gingerbreads, the Luv'd Ones, Fanny, and everyone on the 9 CD "Girls In the Garage" series. So this video is a tribute to them; to their wonderful energy and what they made with it. Enjoy!

... TheBeatles NinaSimone MartinLutherKing CivilRights PatriotAct ImmigrationBill ...
"You say you'll change the constitution/ Well, you know/
We all want to change your head!"
(This is the sequel video to NINA SIMONE -DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD (1964)) Nina, the original activist hellion, was so inspired by the Beatles song that she wrote her own extension! This isn't so much a cover as a continuation. She brings a jubilent churchy blues to the tune, swinging like it's a triumph parade already. Her spirits mirror the times, heady with optimism while still edgy with bruises from the enemy. The Civil Rights struggle of America opened the door to the Empowerment Decade; in its wake unfolded the Chicano movement, the student anti-war movement and the counterculture, the Gay rebellion, Feminism, and the American Indian resurgence. This was mirrored globally with youth uprisings in France, Czechslovakia, Poland, and beyond. But if 1967 was the dream of the young, 1968 had been the nightmare of parental crackdown, from Prague to Paris to Chicago. This was made forever worse by the sudden murders of the two men the counterculture most trusted; Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert Kennedy. Their voices had raised the hopes of the generation for the dawn of a new day, in which everyone was recognized and included. With their deaths, the future would never be the same. 1969 was a tougher time but the dream of a new beginning for everyone was still strong in a generation's hearts.
Nina's recording of "Revolution, Parts 1 & 2" is from the 1969 album, "To Love Somebody".

SLY CD reissues out now! The first seven albums are remastered, expanded with extra songs and essays, in deluxe digipaks! Hurry, before the limited run sells out forever!
SIS & the Family Stone!:
Everybody knows the Family Stone had three Stewart siblings -Sly, Freddie, and Rose- but younger sister Vaetta (Vet) had her own group as well. Vet paired up with Mary Rand and Elva Melton as Little Sister. They sang back-up for the Family starting in 1970 before making singles of their own.
Sly's fans know there was a long wait between the epic "Stand!" album (1969) and the Funk-defining masterpiece "There's a Riot Goin' On" (1971). In between were several dazzling slngles, including a few for Little Sister. Both their songs, You're the One" and "Somebody's Watching You", charted in the R'n'B Top 10 that year. It's probable that Sly is playing everything on them as well as writing and producing on his Stone Flower label. This is the first use of a drum machine, the famed Rhythm King, on a hit song. Crucially, these singles previewed the Riot album's new sound a year early; if that LP defined the path of modern Funk music, then these singles were its first steps.
Vet was recently hurt in an auto accident. She's recovering, but why not send her a get-well line at this address:

"Born in Tunis, Tunisia, 1948, Jacqueline... recorded her first disc for Impact records; '7 heures du matin' (7:00 AM), when she was 18. Her songs combined Arab, European and American influences. Her Sixties EPs are highly prized for their garage sound. With her strong vocals, and talent for pop melodies, Jaqueline's songs are real gems that still sound fresh today."
-THE YEYE GIRLS WEBSITE,
http://members.tripod.com/ye_ye_girls/artists/taieb.html
The combo of garage crunch with her teen disdain predicts everyone from the Runaways and Nikki & The Corvettes to Bratmobile and the Donnas. Her youthful impatience with the status quo and personal declaration through rock and fashion captures the spirit of the mid-60s, and its center, London, particularly.
The Beatles had ignited a youth firestorm. London was virtually transformed overnight in its wake. Before them, young men and women were quiet junior clones of their status-obsessed parents. Designer Mary Quant snubbed the couture world of the middle-aged, pumping out bold modernist clothes for young rocking girls. She killed bouffants and prom dresses with Mod bobs and miniskirts; kickstarted boutiques on Carnaby Street and King's Road; branched into make-up kits and accessories; trailiblazed Swinging London, and reinvented the modern Fashion world as we know it. Her "five point haircut" was invented by young Vidal Sassoon. Their modern girl, with disposable cash, zest for kicks and sex, and brash futurist style would reverberate around the world as strongly as the Beatles' music. All their hallmarks are evident in our French chanteuse and her ode to awakening.

The Women of ELECTRONIC MUSIC! From the 30's to the 70's!
Before synthesizers, electronic music was honed the hard way in universities, by splicing tape loops, distorting sounds, endless dubbing, and blind instinct. Here are the timeless women of future music who created our present...
Since the 1930's, CLARA ROCKMORE was the master of the notoriously difficult Theremin, and later championed by synthesizer-creator Bob Moog; LOUIS & BEBE BARRON created the first all-electronic score for the film "FORBIDDEN PLANET" (1957), using oscillated sounds and tape loops; //STUDIO d'ASSAI (Paris): Danish ELSE MARIE PADE studied under musique concrete founder Pierre Schaeffer, becoming a noted composer; ELAINE RADIGUE used the Buchla and Arp synthesizers in her work, heavily influenced by Buddhist meditation, and records now with laptop improv group The Lappetites; MICHELE BOKANOWSKI has composed for film, televison, and theatre; //BBC RADIOPHONIC WORKSHOP (London): ...was created and directed by DAPHNE ORAM, inventor and sonic pioneer; she was followed by DELIA DERBYSHIRE, who brought Ron Grainer's "DR. WHO" theme to brilliant, eerie life with her studio wizardry; MADDALENA FAGANDINI co-created the proto-Techno single "Time Beat/ Waltz In Space" (1962) with young producer George Martin under the alias 'Ray Cathode'; GLYNIS JONES produced some of the Workshop's classic albums like "Out Of This World" (1976); ELIZABETH PARKER scored many BBC shows including "BLAKE'S 7", and was the person to see the Workshop out in its 1998 finale; //Fluxus performance artist YOKO ONO expanded John Lennon's mind and range with electronic music, musique concrete, and 'happening' experiments; //COLUMBIA-PRINCETON ELECTRONIC MUSIC CENTER (New York): A premiere focal point for international composers since the 50's, including composer and Associate Director PRIL SMILEY; ALICE SHIELDS combined her operatic voice and poetry with the revolutionary synthesizers of the late 60's and early 70's; teacher DARIA SEMEGEN wrote traditional classical music as well as electronic; WENDY CARLOS had massive mainstream success with the all-synth "Switched On Bach", before writing groundbreaking film scores for "A CLOCKWORK ORANGE," "THE SHINING" and 'TRON"; nearby at Bell Labs, LAURIE SPIEGEL spearheaded computer graphics and software design as well as new music; maverick ANNETTE PEACOCK went from Free Jazz piano to the first synthesizers, threading her early 70's raps and rock with freeform electronics; //Argentinian BEATRIZ FERREYRA, who also studied with Schaeffer, is an esteemed composer and teacher; //SAN FRANCISCO TAPE MUSIC CENTER: The crucial West Coast electronic center, including Morton Subotnick, Terry Riley, Steve Reich and PAULINE OLIVEROS in 1962; it moved across the Bay to become the... //CENTER FOR CONTEMPORARY MUSIC (Mills College, Oakland, CA): Oliveros was the first Director, perfecting her signal processing system for live performance; student and now Co-Director MAGGI PAYNE trailblazed video imagery and record engineering along with her music; alum CYNTHIA WEBSTER played in the early synth band Triode, founded electro mag SYNAPSE, and now runs Cyndustries designing software for electronic music, such as the Zeroscillator.
Their innovations led to Progressiv Rock, Krautrock, New Wave, Coldwave, Darkwave, Electro Funk, Industrial, Techno, and Electroclash. Their fringe future music is now the soundtrack of today.
DELIA DERBYSHIRE: This song is from a 1972 LP called "Electrosonic", collecting music library pieces Delia scored for use in TV shows. It was recently issued on CD, as was "Oramics" by Daphne Oram:

Killer fashion!
The What four were championed by Columbia producer Teo Macero (Miles Davis' fusion albums). They played their own instruments, although they felt a little wobbly about it. But this single needs no apologies. Riffing off of the spy themes of the times, they divulge their undercover misson to slay their prey with their outergear and, um, special accessories.
The fashion revolution of Swinging London swayed young women into a jet age where music, style, the Pill, and new outlooks expanded their options. This literal 'revolt into style' opened many horizons. Taking up from Mary Quant's Mod mutiny, designer Barbara Hulanicki unleashed the Biba's boutique. ( It was her sister's nickname.) Her Art Deco and Art Nouveau upgrades, dark lush colors, and affordable styles made solely for the new youth were another level and a sensation. She also pioneered the boutique as an environment, with rock'n'soul blasting in a dark maze of themed rooms. Her progressive/traditionalist designs are the hinge between Rudi Gernreich's space age futurism and the nouveau and world-culture backlash styles of the counterculture. From 1964 to its end in 1975, Biba's was THE go-to place for outrageous style. ( The current revival is in name only, and Hulanicki disowns it.)
The fashion uprising liberated young women on some levels, but there was the danger of it being just shallow consumerism. As Empowerment became the mantra of the decade, they would begin to challenge distinctions between expression and exploitation. This is a crucial pivot toword Feminism. The What Four, in taking up the instruments that propelled the generation, join their Beat and Garage sisters in redressing the future.

"Start a little movement in your WOH-WOH-WOH!"
"The Hucklebuck" was a Big Band and Jump Jive standard from the 40's. Everybody had a variation of it in their repertoire. The reason was that 'hucklebuck' was a euphemism for something the latter part of it rhymed with. When couples trysted to it on the dancefloor, band leaders knew how to swing that s*xual energy. It survived into Rock'n'Roll through versions like Chubby Checker's, which may be where the Birdies learned to shake a tailfeather.
The "Girls In the Garage" CD I culled it from was no help for any info about them. (Where are Alec Palao or Lois Wilson when you need them? Hopefully making the all-girls NUGGETS box set of my dreams!) But a fan informed me they were another guise of Darlene Love & the Blossoms! Ms. Love is legendary for her chameleonic turns behind the mike under different names: The Crystals ("He's a Rebel"); Bobb B. Soxx & the Blue Jeans; and the K-C-Ettes, behind guitarist Al Casey ("Surfin' Hootenanny"). Darlene had a funny story of evading producer Phil Spector when he was mad at her for working other studios under aliases, but now that story sounds really ominous. Darlene is also famous for portraying Danny Glover's wife in the 'Lethal Weapon' movies, and is just as potent a performer today.
To have a Movement, ya gotta move first. Rock propelled the hips before it prodded people to be hip in awareness. As Feminism would soon declare, "the personal is political". Just the act of freeing your body, your inhibitions, your appearance, your choice of partner, or your choice of music was tantamount to a political action. In a turbulent time when the youth were starting to question everything about any arbitrary boundaries, every move they made away from these was rebellion. No neat little boxes for them. More like a spectrum of rooms to explore and exceed. In this moment, the air is electric with the tension of possibility...

She loves you, instead!
The Bootles were another bandwagon response to the Beatles' invasion of the States. Issued on the Crescendo label before the Seeds and Jazz artists gave them cred, it's generally thought to be studio cats and kitties with four models vamping for the 45 sleeve. The mystery vocalists have that unmistakeable New York swagger and tough sass, and you can virtually hear the transition from the Ronettes to the Shangri-La's around the corner. Though this is a studio knock-off, it has a greatness that Beat and Garage fans revere. But there was plenty of the real thing to come...
The Beatles' electric energy catalyzed their generation into making rock'n'roll. The myriad of boys get their due, but the girls deserve their spotlight as well. This video highlights some of the most revered girl Beat bands from around the world. So let's hear it for:
The Liverbirds, who also went from Liverpool to Hamburg's Star Club; Les Beatlettes, who later morphed into Les Guerrieres; Goldie and the Gingerbreads, the first all-girl rock band signed to a major contract; The Girls, who were the Sandoval Sisters (a.k.a., the Moon Maids); 'The Sweetles' from Germany; chameleonic Jackie DeShannon, whose songwriting and guitar chops earned her a tour with the Beatles and hits for the Searchers; The Daughters of Eve; The What Four; The (original) Pandoras, spiritual big sisters of Paula's great 80's group of the same name; Sally & the Alley Cats; Sanjalice from Yugoslavia, in the latter 60's; the absolutely essential Luv'd Ones, whom leader Char Vinnedge steared from Merseybeat and Surf into Garage and gloriously fuzzy Psyche; and the Pleasure Seekers, starring 16-year-old Suzi Quatro and her sisters, Pattie and Arlene.
To all of these pioneers and their kindred sisters, this video is to tell you "we love you, yeah yeah yeah!"

Opening the door to every room you live in!
By the mid-60's all the new ideas of how to reinvent the future hit critical mass. The biggest generation ever had access to more ways of communicating than ever. Telephones, airplanes, freeways nationwide, record albums, fashion mags, concert tours, TV dance programs, college campuses; everything was becoming a world wide web for connecting and correcting. The Civil Rights movement had triggered this Empowerment Decade. "Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about." Try something new, resurrect something lost, use change to recreate tomorrow. Daily we are still catching up with everything they opened up.
There are actually two rebel aesthetics in the 60's. Modern Futurism and Organic Naturalism. The first encompassed the Space Age, Swinging London, Mods, Jack Kirby and Jim Steranko comics, hipster lounge music, Art Deco, modern architecture, modular art design, James Bond sets by Ken Adam, plastic and chrome. The latter rejected that as a path to sleek sterility, embracing the organic and the classic historical: marijuana, hair length, flowers, native american buckskin and headbands, Victorian jackets and granny glasses, Art Nouveu, tribal clothes from history, folds and layers, skin and natural form, ZAP Comix, complex strobing graphics, spontaneous happenings and conceptual art, ancient wisdom, and a humanist philosophy that held at its core..."love". Being the 60's, these were two views and you were free to pick and choose what you could use.
Margo Guryan was a classical and jazz student in the early 60's. Ornette Coleman was a fellow student, Milt Jackson and Max Roach among her storied teachers. Hearing Brian Wilson swayed her into the ethereal world of melodic pop. The success of her songwriting, such as "Sunday Morning" (Spanky & Our Gang, Oliver) and "Think Of Rain" (Astrud Gilberto, Claudine Longet, Jackie DeShannon) earned her the chance to record an album. The "Take a Picture" LP, which contains "Love", has become a revered pop classic that found even more fans recently in an expanded CD reissue. Margo is on the upswing with all the new attention. Check out her website here:
http://www.myspace.com/margoguryan
Her new song is an excellent comment on the current war:
http://youtube.comhttp://www.sweetcrazyboy.com/v5/video.videos/v/Q7soN6HNU3Y
"Love/ How do you know the things you do
you do not only from need and not from greed
but only from love?"

... EnnioMorricone EddaDellOrso RudiGernriech PeggyMoffitt SiouxsieSioux KarenO ChicksOnSpeed NewWave 60sMod Fashion ...
The Muse and the Maestro!
Italian composer Ennio Morricone flipped the script on 1960's film soundtracks. Out went the syrupy strings, in came radical arrangements, instruments, and textures. The otherworldly voice heralding many of these avant arias belonged to Edda Dell'Orso. Ennio worked in many styles to reflect the 400 hundred movies he scored, and his own restless resolve to try new things. Edda could roll with anything he threw her way. His 'spaghetti westerns' ricocheted with rough chants, surf clang, jews harps, and whistling: Edda soared into eternity on the magnificently operatic "The Ecstasy of Gold" (THE GOOD, THE BAD, & THE UGLY). For thrillers, he blendered abrasive and feverish avant-garde soundscapes; Edda hyperventilated gasps somewhere between orgasm and strangulation, at once alluring and disturbing (SHORT NIGHT OF THE GLASS DOLLS). For romantic romps, he served a breezy lounge c*cktail of pop and jazz sensuality; Edda's seductive and upbeat scatting and tonal scales set the template for Stereolab, Hooverphonic, and Pizzicato 5 to follow. This song, for the 1971 film "THE BURGLERS", is in that realm. She worked with all the great Italian composers, like Nicolai, Umiliani, and Piccioni as well. Check out more of her steller work here:

Rudi Gernreich was the iconoclast of 1960's fashion. He tore out the binding constrictions that strangled womens' clothing, and made everything fluid and flowing with the form. He invented the topless bikini, portals in clothes, the use of vinyl and plastic, the concept of unisex, the first designer jean, and the thong. But his best gambit was the unclassifiable Peggy Moffitt. Models before had been fembots parading armor dresses with classic femininity. Peggy upended all of that. She was a performance artist, turning each vogue into an individual character. She evolved into a persona that made her seem from the far future; this was true, because Rudi and she were inventing it as they went. Her kabuki eye makeup, helmut bowlcut, mime shapes, gender-ending manner, mischievous pluck, and intense presence tore up the rulebook on female appearance, behaviour, and attitude. Her bold style had immediate effect on the times from Cher to Spock. Her alien androgeny set the stage for Bowie's Ziggy Stardust several years later. Her mercurial nature and fierce eyemakeup opened the way for Siousiee Sioux and many a New Wave novitiate in the 80's. And her boundless physicality and hairstyle anticipated Karen O (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) today. Between them Rudi and Peggy wrote much of the future we live in. (In fact, Peggy designed the typefont that's used in the video for names; it's a tribute to Rudi's red/black motifs.) Learn more about these brilliant pioneers at:

Aussie Beat queen!
Australia churned out a lot of great Beat and Garage Rock bands in the mid-60's. Among them was Toni McCann who belted out some fierce singles of her own. Toni had recently moved from England; her deep love of the Rolling Stones and tough alto voice shocked the intensely conservative music scene. Backed by the Blue Jays, Toni helped turn the tide from girly girls with white gloves to a future where women could be themselves. This song was the theme for an aussie music program, their answer to Shindig and Top Of The Pops. Since I didn't have a photo of her at the time of of making this, here's a tribute to those shows. There are nods to Gogo shows like Hullabaloo, the French YeYe scene, and the dream girls. Enjoy!
CDs with Toni's songs:

"Real women ride!"
The motorcycle and the open road have always been metaphors for freedom. Between Kerouac's "On the Road" and Persig's "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance", the counterculture embraced that ideal and roared with it. Shocking Blue did two B-sides, "Harley Davidson" (1969) and "Get It On" (1975), that tread that path.
For women, whose lives were locked up in farms or drawing rooms in the 1800's, the bicycle, the car, and the plane were transports of liberation in the 20th century. Amelia Earhart and black aviatrix Bessie Coleman opened up the skies. Linda Gudeau (The Motor Maids) and Louise Scherby (Women's International Motorcycle Association) scorched the tarmac. The cycle helped them to explore new gender roles, sensuality, self-reliance, equity, and the land in vaster vistas. This proud, rich heritage extends today from Motorcycle Clubs like the Amazon WMC and the Cycle Sisters, to the ultra-hellions, Dykes On Bikes. An open range is possibility, an open road is freedom.
Included here are varied angles like: vintage cycle ads, motorcyle mamas galore, Betty Page and pin-up art, Luciana Paluzzi ("Thunderball"), mod scooters, the Shangri-La's, Batgirl, Marianne Faithfull, Bridget Bardot (who sang her own classic "Harley Davidson"), Ann Margaret, Crepax's "Valentina" comics, Francoise Hardy and "Pravda" -the pop art comic she inspired, Janis Joplin, hippie hedonism, Black Canary, biker grrrl movies like "Hell's Belles" vesus bike mag pin-ups, Betty Davis, and the Runaways. Everyone your mother warned you about or may have been!
About SHOCKING BLUE: They started as a male rocking quartet in Holland who had the good fortune to replace their lead singer with Mariska Veres. Doe-eyed and direct, Mariska belted it out with the best of them. They broke through worldwide with the #1 smash, "Venus," in 1970. Time has borne out the depth of their work; their catalog is rich with strong melodies in varied styles which have given them a cult following. Artists as diverse as BANANARAMA ("Venus") to NIRVANA ("Love Buzz"), the PRODIGY ("Phoenix" uses "Love Buzz") and FATBOY SLIM (sampled "Send Me a Postcard") have tributed them. Mariska's tough wail was the foil for the deft guitar work of Robbie van Leeuwen, a tasteful and inspired player who is much underrated. Their work from 1968 to 1975 is great stuff. Even a few reunion singles in '86 and '94 hold the chemistry. Sadly, Mariska passed in December of 2006, and this is dedicated with respect to her.

Liverpool bird flies!
Fresh on the cuban heels of the Beatles' success came fellow (and non-fella) Liverpudlians. The Searchers and Gerry & the Pacemakers hit big, but others waxed singles and waned. Jeannie & the Big Guys did a solid take of the Shirelles' "Boys", no doubt reflipping the script on Ringo. Their B-side was this banging Beat number, which has all the catchiness and perfect clang one could want!
The mid-60's was the Jet Age turning into the Space Age. The youth took the promises of a gleaming future to heart and Modernism ruled art, music, fashion, and outlooks. Often these all overlapped. Op Art could be found on Jasper John's paintings, Keith Moon's chest, and in young women's closets. The same way that Op patterns confounded the eye, the youth intended to flip reality inside out and come up with something more. Something brash, futuristic, perplexing, and loud!
