      Geoff Cook that's Eric Ford on bass. Huxley was long gone by the time this was recorded.

    I had the great good fortune to see this wonderful band in late 65 in Covina Cal. Their opening act was a group called the Young Rascals before they had made it really big. Both bands were just superb with the Rascsls giving the Brits a real run for their money.

      I'm sure the Young Rascals blew the DC5 off the stage being that they were controlled by Dave Clark and not that great live

      I saw them in West Covina at the Carousel Theater in ‘65. I remember the Bobby Fuller Four opening. I don’t remember if there was more than one opening act.

    I remember hearing this when I was a young man. Only now did I find out who performed it. And I'm middle-aged now. Talk about learning something new every day.

    I´m a Beatles fan, however, I listen to DC5 just to hear Mike's great voice. He's the best.

    Well said Geoff. Completely agree with you sir.
    The DC5 were fabulously versatile as proved by the sheer breadth of their back catalogue. Everything from bubblegum pop through rock, soul, rock'n'roll, rhythm'n'blues, even country. You name it they could perform it and master it as well. The DC5 operation always applied very stringent quality control measures to ensure the material they released was of an extremely high standard. So much so that some really great stuff was kept in the vaults for years. There are three volumes of previously unreleased recordings now available on ITunes that are absolutely fantastic and well worth investing in if you are a DC5 fan...

    Mike Smith (a name hardly anyone remembers) was one of the greatest
    vocalists in rock. For me it was always The Mike Smith 5! The DC5 were
    influences on many groups that came later including The Ramones and
    Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band. For me Mike Smith and Eric
    Burden were the two best UK male vocalists of that era. Others, (Jagger,
    Ray Davies, Daltry, Beatles, Manfred Mann's Paul Jones, etc) may have
    been better "performers" but those two were the best singers! (Although
    Paul Jones is very seriously underrated and comes in at #3.)

    • @spectrum7virkeytroni

      i agree with you on Mike Smith, but I've always thought that Eric Burden had a decidedly small vocal range.

    • @John_Chu
      @John_Chu 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@spectrum7virkeytroni Being a baritone, Burden actually had a rather impressive range: A2 - C5 (2.3 octaves). His lowest notes in House of the Rising Sun (A2-A4), his highest notes in We Gotta Get Out of This Place (C3-C5).

      Brian Johnson, mate, Brian Johnson, he is definitely in front of Jagger, and not for Aerosmith, but what he did in Geordie. Geordie is just great. But Rolling Stones never liked, never had they records.

    ha ha So Steven Carlton-King saw the DC5 twice in the 70's??? Amazing for a band who never toured or performed live after 1967 and disbanded mid-1970.

    You must be joking he was a great singer whatever he did. These songs happen to be old Rock and Roll so he has to change his voice for the songs.

    It sounds to me like Mike is just not singing in his normal range, which is not necessarily a bad thing, in my estimation. We're all so used to his upper range that he used on the hits (and in fact, gave his voice the distinctive quality he's known for) that yeah, this feels a little jarring to hear him singing so much lower. Bad song selection? No, bad arranging in not tailoring the keys of the songs to Mike's range. It is fun, tho, and that's what the DC5 was about in the end.

  • @KaptSonic22

    Is this the DC5 or is this Cat Mother & the All-Night News Boys? 1969

    • @whiskylovinlawrence3081
      @whiskylovinlawrence3081 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely the DC5 This is mostly one vocalist (and a great one at that) with Cat Mother there were 5 vocalists (see the performance clip-it's on TH-cam) The guitar parts are different as well

      Pretty sure Mike Smith actually played the keyboards.

  • @JohnSmith-oj6ir
    @JohnSmith-oj6ir 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    They needed to put out material and Dave probably said "hey, let's do a medley." This is a waste of a good band and a great voice. Every Holiday Inn lounge band has a rock medley with these songs. Mike sounds like himself on Blue Suede Shoes, but I'd rather hear him doing something a little less stock. Loved the band as a kid, played their songs in garage bands. But this is throwaway stuff.

    • @crimsonwolf9099
      @crimsonwolf9099 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree. FLUFF. The thing is I would listen to Mike Smith sing anything. Killer voice and talent. He could sing any schlock and make it great.

      In 1969-70, the 'Rock and Roll revival' was gathering steam. Would really crest a little later in the '70s. The DC5 here are covering an American single by Cat Mother and the All-Night Newsboys that reached #21 in the summer of '69. The Cat Mother LP from which the single came was (amazingly) produced by Jimi Hendrix!
