Wonderful stuff! Love it to bits - thank you. Excellent playing (of course) and excellent camera-work, too. The picture is very clear ... surely, TVs still used 405 lines in those days - which makes it all the more remarkable!

One of my favourite bands from the early 60s. Its so great to see, as well as hear, them in action. I do remember "Whispering" Paul McDowell being completely deadpan, despite the ludicrous things they put him through, but I'd forgotten that the rest of the band were just as straight-faced! I do remember them being televised from the London Palladium - can't remember if it was a "Royal" performance or not - where for one number, he entered being swung from wires in the stage roof, and another where he was shot up through a trapdoor in the stage floor! When I saw Spinal Tap doing something similar, decades later, it made me wonder if that is where they got their inspiration! If anyone has any video of that Palladium performance, I would love to see it again!

The vocalist sitting quietly until his turn. Temperance 7, so named because there were 9 of them. 1 over the 8. Geddit?

Royal Command--? Methinks Phillip & Queen could use a new video...(amazing video clip...at that time The Temperance Seven were the “house” band of such long-forgotten BBC radio comedy shows such as the Eric Sykes police force sitcom, “It’s A Fair Cop” & “The Arthur Haynes Show”. Most of them all lost now---)

Is the drummer Brian Innes related to Neil Innes of Bonzo Dog Band? This band seems like the grandfather of the Bonzos.
@patrickdalton9704Ай бұрын
@@soarornor Yes as you say the Bonzos could be seen as a direct descendant of the Temperance Seven but I’ve never heard of any connection between Brian Innes and Neil Innnes. I recently read Brian Innes’ book “A long way from Pasadena” which is the story of the Temps and there’s no reference to them being related in that

@@patrickdalton9704 Hmmmmm. Thanks for that book mention. I’ve got to check that out. The Bonzos were a superb band. Way past just doing trad stuff. They took it all to a new level. Still one of my all time favorite bands. A very unique voice in that time. And Temperance 7 just shines.

That was a clip from the movie 'It's Trad Dad', also titled for some markets 'Ring a Ding Rhythm'.
