In 1966-67 I was teaching in SF and living with a Belly Dancer, Sally, who I payed drums for at various gigs (my teachers were Vince Delgado and a Belly Dance teacher named Burt. There were clubs in San Francisco where live mid-eastern music and belly dancing happened nightly on Broadway in North Beach. When I moved to Santa Cruz to teach at Cabrillo, Sell moved with me and started dancing at the Catalyst (the original one in the St. George Hotel) and at private parties and various clubs. In 1969-73 we attended the Renaissance Pleasure Faire in Marin where we met Armando & Hanya Fujaco, Jamila and her troupe (I played drums with others for several of her productions), and it was there that I finally met Solomon just before his move to Santa Cruz. I even studies bouzoukie with Saul for a short time, but alas, I was trying to quite smoking and Sol was constantly smoking and his trailer was unbreathable, I was also, let's face it, mediocre at best on the instrument--good for backup, not solos, and my ethnic studies lass at Cabrillo had just erected the world's largest tipi, my teaching load left little time for music practice, and I stepped back from music to pursue my own art, writing. However, I remained good friends with Armando and friendly with Sol for the next 40+ years. A brilliant musician and deep thinking, Sol never failed to lift our spirits and touch our hearts when he played. Thanks for for the track. Brought back old memories.
This LP had a big effect on me back then. Helped introduce many of us to Eastern musical ideas. I now have 2 Ouds and a Saz, and these guys helped. All very gifted musicians. On to the next plane Mr. Lindley, you done good.
Solomon Feldthouse, Chris Darrow, John Vidican and David Lindley. They defined psych-rock but introduced the Oud and music from the middle east. It was 1967.
