Arthur Brown Kastival 1968

[@stewartnicol3028]

My late cousin, Vincent Crane (Hammond Organ, Fender Rhodes) gave Arthur his musical sound. He also defined Atomic Rooster. Among many others. 🙏❤️💡

vincent is a genious

i love Vincents playing especially on the 1st Arthur Brown album with Dreaker on drums.

Really intelligent answers to really stupid questions:)

[@jonsilence]

Saw this lineup in Anaheim in '68 and actually got to sit onstage leaning against Vincent Crane's Hammond! Carl was just to the right of me a few feet away, playing the same silver Ludwig kit he has here. An incredible experience!

[@TheBdomijan]

did you get any cell phone footage of that??? that would be amazing!!! ;-)

They didn’t have cell phones then. I saw MC 5, Stooges, SRC, & took snapshots a few times, but cell phones weren’t invented.

[@jamieburnette5145]

Arthur Brown has influenced so many genres . Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden for example credits Arthur Brown for influencing his vocal style , even went so far as to go to one of his shows and personally tell him that and thank him. Arthur is a Rock God and deserves more credit..

[@TheGent2]

Marilyn Manson owes Alice Cooper. Who owes Arthur Brown. Who owes Screaming Jay Hawkins. Each generation builds on the one before it.

Ian Gillan copied Arthur a lot. And ELP was infuenced by CWOAB.

I saw him live that year. Shrine Auditorium with The Who and Fleetwood Mac. Crazy World was by far best performance, despite Who being great

Arthur sounds pretty intelligent and look at Carl Palmer beating those drums like they owed him a lot of money. Thanks for the upload.

Carl Palmer has worked with numerous singers. Ironically almost lone alive (and kicking!) now, is Arthur Brown, the oldest one. They should reunite.

Another thing, that people don't know about him...is that he was a Mod, and had to learn to play bass guitar, and was in a mid 60s band doing James Brown covers, called The Arthur Brown Set.

[@robin2012ism]

great!

[@kenmills30]

Inventor of heavy metal vocals, though Screamin Jay Hawkins brought theatricality into rock n roll, Arthur brought it into rock before people like Bowie and Alice Cooper were barely out of suits and modeling themselves on The Beatles and Stones. I think the only reason he's not fully given his due is that his unpretentious conceit free personality and mindset doesn't fit the usual rock star ego self-important template. If you don't have the right kind of ego or vanity, you tend to fall under the radar in the perception of history.

I have watched this so many times that I've lost count. As much as I enjoy the speaking bits, surely someone has the full and uninterrupted musical clip. Also interesting that Alice Cooper has repeatedly stated that without Arthur Brown there would not have been an Alice Cooper (KISS might suggest similar about themselves), the America shock rocker is nowhere near the showman that Arthur was and remains to this day. Between his tremendous voice, dynamic singing, great tunes and those very unique stage movements (the hand motions remind me of Dusty Springfield), Arthur was a one-man show. That said, he had a great band, this one with Vincent Crane, Nick Greenwood, and Carl Palmer, who replaced Drachen Theaker, the drummer who despite record company criticisms of his playing added so much to the excitement of that great album, 'The Crazy World of Arthur Brown'. But once again, where is the full clip of the performance?

[@TheBlueCream]

I love Drachen Theaker's drumming on that album...i thought this was him in this video but apparently its Carl Palmer...pity..wish there was video of Dreaker in that classic lineup with Crane that played on the gr8 Crazy World album.

Some facts are lost in translation, most of the audience had dropped LSD before the show, very popular back then. So what they saw was in a spiritual realm. In other words they we're lit up on a Hallucination. Timothy Leary the father of LSD.
