- A look at the life, music, and story of Vince Taylor, an early 60’s rock & roll frontman who influenced David Bowie, the Clash, and countless other artists. From his classic b-side Brand New Cadillac to his epic psychotic break in 1965-we’ll take look at this fascinating and strange figure in rock & roll history.
Love this. Vince , or Brian, was my Great Uncle. I never met him but he was really close to my Mum who has watched this.
I'm glad that he seemed to find happiness in his later years. Peace! :)
My nans brother was bobbie clarke aka bobbie woodman, my great uncle x
@@dirtywallz I'm seeing my Mum tonight, will ask her if she remembers him 😄
@@fatboycheese he wasnt that big
Wow! Far out man. I sure she had mixed emotions seeing it. Would love to hear from her is she ever wishes to share any stories about her memories
The Syd Barrett of rockabilly.
Syd barrett went to see him
I'm really surprised that no one has made a Movie yet based on Vince Taylor
because whites in america wont sell.it's all that rap crap now. thanks to ZOGonzo
This is an incredibly well-made piece. I commend whoever was involved in creating and editing this short! You've managed to perfectly capture Vince's essence, in all of its brilliant and bizarre facets.
Watching this made me realize there are a lot of interesting parallels between Vince's life and the underground movie _The World's Greatest Sinner_ from 1962. It depicts a wild rock 'n' roller who declares his own messiah status and slowly descends into madness. The similarities are eerie!
Frank Zappa did the soundtrack to that movie.
I once mete Vince Taylor 1979 all-day Rock N Roll festival Royalty Southgate North London UK Matchbox were doing their open-mike thing Vince got up out the audience and did Jailhouse Rock after his slot we talked for a while Vince seemed very much together and was happy to talk.
Amazing work, thanks
Now this is a biopic that’s gotta happen.
Really enjoyed this. I love these great stories about forgotten rockers.
Never heard of this guy, but now am fascinated by the amazing treatment of his biography. Whip-smart wit. How on earth does anyone dig this deep into someone and find such great footage? Bravo.
It's from the quarantine bro! Lmao. But seriously youtube has defeated the tv.... search "Acid Casualtys" they are terrific 40 minute long in depth documentaries. They have one for peter green, Bince Taylor, as well as a few others. Highly recommend it. You can find the best documentaries on the tube
“Vince Taylor used to live here...nobody’s ever heard of him....just who he was...just where he fits it...” :-)
He also had some of the very BEST recording covers too!
They do need to make a movie about this guy .. lol .
Brilliant video, bravo! I have so much fun watching it. I remember that I used to like Vince a lot (I lived in Switzerland) and believed in his story of being an ex-airline pilot :) ....Thank you for setting the story straight…hahaha!
That's cool. Thank you very much!
I met Vince once in Hounslow with his lovely mother.
I only first learned of Vince Taylor as it was also a song. The non LP Bside of GOLDEN EARRING " Radar Love". Being I'm American - I never heard of him until years later.
Good work, want more!
LONG LIVE VINCE TAYLOR!! HAIL HAIL ROCK AND ROLL!!
Excellent!
Bobby had double bass drums way before it was really a thing.
This channel is so underrated! You deserve so many more subscribers
60 to 80 micrograms is enough to induce a good high.
250 micrograms is a very sizeable dose.
Acid (LSD) is measured in micrograms which is one millionth of a gram, so a million micrograms equals one gram thats how low of a dose is needed to create effects, even 80 mcg is a good dose for a non user, not an active user but someone who does not use often.
As you use LSD your tolerance grows rapidly and the very next after you use if you use again you have to double or triple the dose to get the same effects as the day before.
This is why I don't believe Syd Barrett tripped for weeks, Mason thinks it was STP
Doses in the 60s were up to 1000 mics and it would take weeks to come down if ever.
I like how they show a photo of Johnny Nash to illustrate a mention of Johnny Ace.
i caught that too; Ace was dead by the time Dick Clark was on tv
Morrissey looks a fair bit like Vince Taylor, right?
Morrissey introed to Taylor's music around his mid 2000s tour
I thot that too....
Thanks Vince! :-)
funny.great writing and voice over. well done. well hung and snow white tan.
He was always crazy. Things manifest itself as you get older. Drugs enhance things
I swear, the world Vince lived in was just for himself. My parents, my grandparents all knew those dates and none of them had the life anywhere near vinces.
How much speed was he on? Dexedrine or Phenmetrazine?
Bowie may have met Vince but it was Jobriath that he lifted his sound and more importantly his persona from.
he was paid £200 cash in the UK, he bought some acid tabs with some of the money but took the rest of the money to paris where he burnt it in front of band members. Clearly he never spent £200 on LSD
Brilliant. Thank you for that!
British rock n roll ? great stuff 🙂
Anyone know if Taylor recorded in France around 1973 which a French Vince Taylor Fan Club released? Allegedly it was recorded in Paris with Big Jim Sullivan and Link Wray. Source: James Patrick Page Session Man website
Comment for the algorithm. How long y’all think it’ll take this channel to hit 1 mil subs?
I am curious; how many people y’all got working on this video? Like a few? narrator, editor, writer/researcher, or you do it all, or you part of a bigger collaboration? Jw cause I’m just impressed by the video quality from off the bat. Regardless, well done and hope the best for you!
So did gene Vincent get the leather idea from Vince in the early 60's? Hmmm..Morrison that look on as well obviously a little later.
wow how crass! Great Story but also so sad..things that drugs do to people..
so sad ... a strange wax
Make more!
A moterhead is a speed head or someone who uses speed.
Just a tid bit of information for you all.
Brand New Cadillac was the B-side because he knew the BBC wouldn't play it.
poor man elvis.
Eddy barcley était comme il était. Mais une chose est certaine ces que vince a souvent pas honoré ces contrats ces absences ont déçus ces musiciens et l impressiario ce retrouvait en rade avec un publics déchaînés ça peut faire peur. Si elvis avait fait cela Parker l'aurai laissé en rade . Revenon a vince il a raté par la daube et l alcool une grande carrière dommage . Je l'ai vu dans les années fin 70 il était méconnaissable.
YES hunny!!?! PlayBoi indeed
Cool documentary but surely you got some of the dates well wrong as you say how he was giving in 1964 whilst in France and they hadn't seen anything like this and hardly knew but by 64 Beatlemania was happening and the stones were about then you go on to say how the Beatles took his place in Hamburg but that was 1962?
Really well done. But one wonders: is this how you spend your time?!:)
Joseph Barbera es el cuñado del cantante Vince Taylor y todo por Sheila Holden.
otro caso, el actor de PSICOSIS(psycho) Anthony Perkins con Marisa Berenson, por Berry Berenson
como "LA REGLA DE LOS CUÑADOS"

Tuvo un buen inicio, pero se ve qye las drogas si le afectaron al punto que hasta las grabaciones de estudio ya se escuchaban mal, por ejemplo cuando csnto "trouble"
What’s the song that plays @19:18
Diana by Comus

that’s the real star....the others were proto types
Tony Sharidan.. Err Sheridan
That is not an American accent my friend. Its a south England accent!!
He was being sarcastic
I'm curious how you made it through any of this video, without question, if you thought the narrator ( the author? ) thought that was an American accent.
You didn’t hear him say as American as mince meat pie?
Sexy and charismatic like Elvis, and also like Elvis Presley strung out on drugs at the end. And Ziggy did not play guitar.
You know fuck all about Britain in the 50s or any other decade, son.
Looks like Patrick Bateman.
COMUS
Your average hot today isn't 25ug it's 100 but ya 200 pounds in that time is alot of money worth of lsd
Did you do any reliable research about the UK of the period??
Don't get to the "pronunciation" 😱
This guy was just an Elvis wannabe
He's like marmite....I like marmite.
Who cares about France?
Really weird anti British undercurrent here.
"a perfectly safe sane and lovely ballad written to peel off pants in parked cars" That there is some good writing. Always shocking when I come across something on youtube that doesn't suck or isn't narrated by some f*cking robot or written for some 12 year old illiterate child with a 10 second attention span. Good work
Motörhead doesn’t mean what you think it means 😂
