Pretty Things - Bilzen Jazz Festival (1969)

[@maida-vale]

This was organised between Jan Waldorp of Belgian Radio and TV and Me when I worked for EMI. I attended on my Harley el!!! Wonderful times and escorted the last 50k by two Harley mounted police, All three of our sirens wailing and police lights flashing as we headed in on the wrong side of an autoroute. Quelle Drama!

Jon Povey on drums while Twink does a performance art down the front!

[@joszonneveld2829]

This concert was in August 1968 and not in 1969 !!!!! One of the best bands ever!!!!

[@joszonneveld2829]

Actually it was August 23,1968.

[@maxmerry8470]

Jos Zonneveld, Yep, definitely 1968. Twink still there and he was only in the band for a relatively short time. Must have been about this time that they filmed "What's Good For The Goose" (released 1969).

[@maida-vale]

You are Quite right as in '69 I was at Carlin Music amusing myself with Tamla Motown and Spector + the Davray catalogue + more!

[@CaptainBluebear08]

one of the best live-acts; first rock opera; inspiration for the floyd ...

[@Stationario]

People waking up from 40 years of slumber! Would love to hear more of their live stuff. I think I own everything that has been officially released after first seeing them in 1969

[@Raithbheartaigh]

They've been reformed for several years now...I'm seeing them tonight, in a small venue here in Melbourne, Australia, and again next week, different venue.

[@richardfinlayson1524]

Go Twink , now thats a drum solo...er duo ..er solo again povey this time ,twink on acid solo

[@Raithbheartaigh]

December 4th and 13th, they were magnificent...the gig on the 4th was their first ever in Australia, since not quite making it over from NZ in the sixties. They had a blast, and Dick said they'd be back for sure. Keep your eyes peeled!

[@Renhjarta]

I thought that bass amp was going to fall over any time! :O

[@peterwalter04]

[@andythomas706]

SHIT - When was that??? I am from Adelaide but I dont think they played here. I would love to have seen them. Even would have flown to Melbourne. Great City. We have so many music festivals in this state so I wish someone would call them back.
