Beat-Club

Beat-Club from Germany looked like an incredible show. It ran from 1965-1972. The performances were mostly live with lots of audience shots. I love the beautiful and cool hostess. Here are some clips:

• I Can't Let Go, The Hollies - 1966
• Eric Burdon and the Animals - 1967
• documentary footage
• The Tremeloes - 1967
• Peanut Butter, The Liverbirds - 1965
• Happy Jack, The Who
• Out of Time, Chris Farlowe - 1966
• Fire, The Crazy World of Aurthur Brown - 1968

I love everything about this, especially the song by Manfred Mann.

Other groups dug it too:
• The Shapes on Beat-Club, 1966
• The Everly Brothers, 1966
• Rod Stewart, 1976
• Elvis Costello and friends, late 80s

Redbone sing about Marie Laveau on Beat-Club in 1971.

Before they became Redbone, Pat and Lolly Vegas were in demand and had gigs all over the Hollywood scene in the mid-60s. Here they perform in the Oscar-winning It's a Bikini World. Is it though?
